This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Might be a good time to downplay the importance of a relationship for a happy life then instead of trying to push the message that your life sucks if you don't have one.

Maybe being alone works for some people, but the desire for intimate relationships is a biological drive in human beings

My point was that making people feel worse about their situation likely won't improve the outcome. People either would be happy without a partner or they won't and those who won't don't need an external push to try to find a partner and both groups might feel worse if they are publicly branded a failure for not having a partner.
