What's the one thing that if you had would make your life more complete? Happier? Why would it make a difference?
To be the focus of someone's life.
That would be like winning the lottery twice!:biggrin1:Aw you want I should focus on you ? :redface::wink:
An adult to share it with. (my life would not be complete or possibly even worth living without my daughters, so that goes without saying)
I would love to have someone to be involved with me in my interests. Someone I could enjoy hanging out with. A true friend and companion.
Bad part of that is that I'm starting to wonder if I'm just not happy by myself, because I'm not happy with myself? I go through a major depression every time it's time for my girls to go back to my ex's. I wonder sometimes why I can't carry on, and just look forward to the following week when they come back home?
Before my divorce was even final, I became involved with another woman, and that relationship lasted for the last 3 years. I'm purposely not actively "looking" for that next partner hoping that I can learn to be happy with and by myself.
However, that doesn't mean I don't desire that companionship. :frown1:
Do you want a relationship with a man or a woman, buddy? Or don't you really care about gender?

I've had the same sentiment that what kind of place I would like to live just doesn't exist. The fact that I just haven't found it in all the years I've been searching and traveling has relegated me to just try to make my own microcosm of an ideal world to life. I can't say I've been too successful at it however.That said; the type of world that would give me peace of mind does not exist.

Love and Money, in that order.
11 years single is starting to take its toll and i'm actually getting lonely, but at the same time, the idea of having to share my bed when i oh so love to stretch...
I assume you mean something personal, not something like world peace.
For me, it would be a buddy whom my wife would accept for an ongoing MMF relationship. But my life is great, even without that, so I'm not whining.

Yes winning the Lotto would allow me to more effectively pursue anything that might be missing. I could then buy it.

There seems to be a common human need for companionship. It's hard though to find someone who together make you as a couple both better people. I suppose that is why when you find that person it's transcendental.
How does being single for so long take a toll? I'd imagine after 11 years that you grow accustom to the freedoms singledom grants you. Maybe the grass is always greener on the other sided for those of us who are hitched and those of us who are single.
