I'm not a romantic... Hah!

Was visiting tonight with my friend who is in the hospital (mental health ward)

A few years ago we "almost" dated, at least that's the way I saw it at the time, after a few bumps along the road we are now friends still, and just friends, nothing wrong with that

She just brought it up almost naturally in conversation, I may have mentioned something about "not being a romantic" and she pretty much agreed with me, basically saying that we still have a great friendship

It almost feels liberating that she said that, because sometimes I have beat myself over why it never worked it romantically between the two of us, but we can still do some things together

And I think I've said it before on here, but I can be quite happy single
 
Don't look at it as living the single life; look at it as being the owner/operator of your life.
 
It seems like you're using "not being a romantic" as not being interested in romantic relationships but it means more along the lines of not being the type to engage in sappy romantic acts.

A little of both perhaps

Two of my good friends when they manage to get together randomly, often talk shifts to the women they love/have loved (both are single), and I find myself "caught" in the middle, almost not knowing what to say... Conversation can get intense with them :cool:
 
Be happy with yourself. That is all that really counts. I've lost count of the people who are never satisfied when they seek external validation.
