20 years old. Never dated. Don't wanna get married or be in a relationship. Is that so wrong?

I have too much to get done and to do,& I have enough distractions. Why would I want another distraction like a relationship?? And I love the idea of marriage but frankly I have so much crap I don't wanna burden anyone with it. And I don't want children cuz I would be a horrible mom bc I have zero patience. I'm a fun-loving person and energetic but I have low tolerance for certain behavior. And now that I'm staring my twenties people and relatives are gonna be like So no boyfriend? Or When are you getting married? All that crap. Why can't I just be alone

    There's plenty of time for all things. No need to rush. It will happen when it happens. As for what others may expect of you - just be yourself. If it makes you feel uncomfortable then don't do it (whatever it is that makes you feel uncomfortable).

    But all things change. The way we see the world, the goals we have for ourselves, the things we want out of life. Just when you think you've gotten everything perfect, something changes in you - and poof - you're once again working to make life what you want it to be.

    Don't sweat it. If anything, go to school. Broaden your horizons, expand your opportunities. Build upon a solid foundation and what you build will last a lifetime. Neglect your education and you're building on shifting sand. You'll suffer the collapse of your plans over and over without a solid foundation. Besides, an education has a way of changing the way you see the world.

    Having or not having children - that's a personal choice. And if it's not for you then it's not for you. Remember: YOU're the captain of your ship. (your own personal life, wants and goals) Sail towards the things you desire and steer clear of the things you don't. Don't let others set course for you, you'll never be happy with where you go. Even if it's the best place for you to be. If it's not for you then it's not going to make you satisfied and fulfilled.

    Let you be you and everybody else be everybody else.

    Hope this helps.

    Ppl continue change in thinking, emotion, health, etc.

    Marriage or single life are only depends on personal choice.

    Also there are a lot of good points in single life.

    Like as buddha strongly recommends single life.

    You are normal , most Western women view men as below dirt , so just stick to your fellow females for company...& you will never get pestered for sex either , which is what women want !!

    you just need a mature gentleman that will appreciate you giving him sex when you want it and having an understanding that you will call him when you want to see him!
