Question: Is man meant to have a companion!?
Do you think we are created to love (romantically) a companion!? Or is love/relationships/marriage a personal choice!? I know it's obviously a choice in the sense that one can choose to date or not, but what I mean is:

Do you think we are given an innate feeling of being drawn to companionship or solitude!? One or the other!?

Some say solitude/isolation is unhealthy because we were "created" to share our lives with someone!.

Thoughts!?

Great question!. I often wonder this also!. Many marriages do not last, but by and large most people crave security and comfort in this all so very personal world!. I think that its more of a conditioned idea that we must have a partner along side us as we travel through life, I dont think its imperative that we do!.

I dont believe in ' the one' I believe you could love many many people in life, and that its really a matter of how much you have in common and how much you enjoy eachothers company!.

Love is a beautiful thing, but with it comes responsibility and devotion, it really depends what you want in life and what your needs are!.

I have known two people well who were asexual, and they had no interest whatsoever in a "relationship!." One was perfectly content to be alone all of his life and the other wanted children desperately and worked as a teacher and planned on adopting!. But neither of them gave the least thought to marriage!.

No everyone is not innately marriageable!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've always like this song by Neil Young!. It's a maid like Maid Marian(ne)!.

We each have different purposes!. I feel like mine includes a maid, but I've had to make a lot of changes to get ready for her and I'm 34 years older than you!. But she comes when you are ready!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I definitely believe we were created to be in relationships!. If it might be a significant other or a best friend, God created us so we could experience acceptance and distribute love and compassion to others!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
