OK, yes it doesn't make sense. LOL
I like being alone most of the time, but sometimes it's nice to have someone to do things with.
I think I want a relationship sometimes, but then I think about how awkward things get with me and other people and I don't want it anymore.
I just want someone to accept who I am and who doesn't need anything from me. I don't think such a relationship exists.
I wouldn't want the relationship to be sexual, at least not until I want to have a kid. I just want someone to maybe travel with and do fun things with. I want to find a person who will listen to me. He doesn't even need to reply. He can just be silent and understanding. He also needs to tolerate my love for Bob. LOL Basically I want someone (I guess that someone can be a guy or a girl, but I prefer guy because one day I might want to have a kid) who will be there for me when I need him, but who will also leave me alone most of the time. How do I find such a person?

The best way to find such a person is to listen.
The more you listen, the smarter they think you are. And the more likely they are there for you when it counts.

Listening sounds like good advice. I need to do that more.

Deneb,
Just reading this it sounds like you want a FRIEND not a boyfriend or relationship. And that is okay! It really is. Just work on figuring out who you are and what you want in life.

> MBI think you're right! I'm looking for a friend, a close friend. In that case, Babble is the best place to look for this friend because people know me here already.
My friend can be male or female.
