In total? Not sure. Current streak is about 5 years. I'm 26.

It's by circumstance. I keep looking, keep going on dates, but it never works out. At this point it's pretty difficult to find the confidence to ask someone out in the first place. I'm going to my first therapy session next week so maybe I'll be able to work on that.

I enjoy single life, I have a bunch of friends who I spend time witg, but it would still be nice to be in a relationship.

Pro of being single is having more freedom, but I'm really missing physical intimacy.

Partnership is a goal for me. I just don't want to bother people in public, even in bars, clubs etc. and dating apps suck.
