From TV screens and computer monitors, they constantly say that for happiness you need to meet your half. But you can live happily, comfortably and cheerfully without a pair. There are several points of view on building alliances.
Very often, after divorces, people say that living alone is very comfortable. The absence of a couple does not affect life satisfaction in this case. Not everyone, after an unsuccessful marriage, again decides to build something serious. To live comfortably, you need several conditions, and having partners is not the most important thing.
When a loved one is needed
A couple is very much needed in adolescence, when the hormonal background changes, when the first falls in love arise. At this moment, you need to learn how to interact with the opposite sex in a new way, to realize yourself as a man or a woman. At the same time, emotions allow you to feel magical, bestow inspiration. Falling in love makes it easy to leave the parental family and start living separately. It becomes a huge stimulus and destroys all fears. The presence of a couple gives a sense of integrity, the ability to lean on the shoulder of another person, who has not yet formed.
The second person is necessary for those who are very afraid of loneliness. There are people who are ready to tolerate the company of not the best person, but at the same time it is important for them not to be alone. This could be the result of trauma or poor parenting. But usually the life of such people is not happy.
When a partner is not needed
A couple sometimes gives meaning to life, not everyone is ready to achieve something for themselves, it is important to do something for another. If there is someone in life for whom it is worth living, then love for the opposite sex is not needed. If there are children, then this is enough for happiness. Sometimes parents or even pets become such objects.
A career can be a substitute for family. Striving for goals, conquering peaks gives special emotions, they are very strong and sufficient to feel happiness. Careerists understand that they cannot always combine their employment and relationships, so they make a choice in favor of achievements, and this gives them satisfaction.
Those who have experienced personal tragedy often give up love. For example, the death of a husband can lead to the fact that the widow will always live alone. But this limitation does not deprive her of happiness, she can find herself in creativity, work, environment. Having a partner is not so important, because there are other activities.
Complex alliances in the past can discourage the desire to build something else in the future. If there was an experience of negative love, then you don't want to go back to emotions. And such people can be called happy, they just learn to fill their space with other things and do not feel left out. They choose life according to their own rules, and this gives them satisfaction.
