For my whole life I have been on my own. I do not have any brothers or sisters, I am an only child. This has come with its many advantages and disadvantages over time. For a huge chunk of my lifetime, I have been doing jobs or duties on my own. At times being an only child can be lonely although and it gets to be boring over time. You don't have a brother or a sister to play with. For the most part you are on your own, I have gotten used to the idea of being alone. Over time it gets to be daunting. I can not lie though, being an only child is great at times. One good thing is that I don't have to share any of my objects or belongings. Being by myself I can focus on my individual self and try to get better each and every day. I am trying to become a better person. People want to see me fail, I make mistakes but always try to learn from them and not make the same mistake again. If I had a brother or sister I would have had to share the abundance of objects and toys that I had. Although sharing is caring, I don't have that engraved into me. Another advantage is not having to be fighting about many different things. If I had a brother, I would most likely be fighting with him all the time. Sometimes when I look at other brothers I see that they are fighting all the time.
In another sense I have been alone not only as being an only child but in dating wise or having a soul mate. For a vast majority of my life, I have been single, not having a significant other. I have not dated for a tedious amount of time. This in part stresses me out in essence because I have the fear of never meeting someone. One of the worst things in life is always worrying and being stressful. I instill the fear that I will end up being alone for my whole life since I have been alone for so long already. I continue to go on my path and keep my focus. People want to judge me and talk badly about me for not having a girlfriend. I am extremely confident and have high self-esteem about myself regardless. Over an insane amount of time the confidence seems to dwindle.
Being alone for so long, I am ready to meet new people and have a girlfriend. I do not think I will abide by my grandparents request to marry a Greek girl since I am Greek. I do not wish to be alone for my whole life. Over a long span of time it gets to be annoying and to tell the truth being alone to the point of talking to yourself at times. At times I have tried, but it has not led to much at all. In my honest opinion from what I have seen and my friends have seen girls these days do not want the nice guy. They want the sporty jock or the guy who is not at all nice. I am not saying all girls, just some. The term that the nice guy finishes last might be true in some sense. I hope that someday I will find my significant other. Time ticks and ticks, every second draining away in the hourglass. Sand falls slowly through every second. Time can not be taken back or retained. We have the present now to make good choices and find our significant other. So to all people who are single and or an only child, I can feel your pain. I mean I do know people who do love me dearly. At least my grandparents and mother still love me a lot.
