Aside from being single, for those who are, Do you feel complete? I am very happy with my life aside from being single. I have a wonderful child, a home, a decent job, and a good optimistic view of life. How about you?

I am complete. Troubles and hard times are part of being complete.

I finally feel complete. It sure has taken a long time, though. I am happy for I have finally accepted life on its own terms. My job doesn't really pay that much but the benefits from it are very rewarding. My children have their own lives and are doing well. I have a nice set up here in the hills with an affordable rent. I just have four more months of garnishment and the bill will be paid in full making my restitutions complete. I have my meetings for socializing. I have an independence of sorts in my single life. I have a great dog and my car is in good shape. I am optimistic about the future.

I like life and have the same characteristics as yours however, we are all on a journey to reach completeness and that is a life long trip....

I feel I need to be inspired in all of my surroundings in order to feel complete...somehow at the end of the day a walk down by the water is all I need...sometimes I need more...sometimes is having fixed an issue for a customer calling for help on a technical issue.


What makes us incomplete is when we feel unfullfilled...or perhaps not going in the right path and having to deal with "it's the best I can do"

Well I can do better then the best I've done so far!wink

No. I was never designed to be an island, but here I am as an uninhabited isle. Somewhere out there is where I can be found on a few maps. Paws

Paws, You my man have inspired me, helped me, educated me, made a huge impact on how I feel about many things. You are by no means alone, you have touched many and therefore never go about without taking a piece of us. Kevincheers

I am content with my life, I have great kids, and live in a great city.
But I would not call that complete, that is like having no future goals, it's like if I had reach my maximum potential....so for me that would be a no.

I still have much potential in different aspects of my life to accomplish, and a few dreams to complete.

Life is continuos, the day I stop breathing, then my life will be complete.

I am sure I'll be able to look back when I am old, and say, wow, it turned out better than I expected!

For now, life is what I make it, or what God has put in my path, I am content, with no regrets.

I personnaly feel complete but that doesn't mean that my life is complete. To me it means as a human being I feel whole (spiritualy, mentaly and physically.) But that doesn't mean I cannot grow and learn more. I'm still open to learn and better myself, as well to keep having goals in life.....

I don't feel incomplete at all. On the contrary, as an individual, I feel about as complete as a person can feel. I feel good about myself. I feel loved even when I'm alone. I'm completely ready to meet my maker. Not to imply that I'm anxious to exit this life, but simply to imply that I'm fully prepared emotionally and spiritually. There is nothing I feel that I need to make amends for, or that I feel I have left undone. So in that sense I feel about as complete as a spirit can be.

Has my life been complete? What would that mean? Was there an initial goal that was supposed to have been met? Only by having an initial goal can I decide whether my life has been complete. Otherwise it just was what it was. It will be complete when I die because that will mark the end of it. grin

Has my life been as fulfilling as it possibly could have been. No. And that would always be the answer no matter how I had lived it. However, I'm quite certain that my life would be more fulfilling if I had someone close and intimate to me to share it with. I have experienced that in the past and those were the most fulfilling days of my life. So yes, from that point of view, having someone to intimately share life with would be more fulfilling. But that really has nothing at all to do with how complete I am.

Being complete, and being fulfilled are two different things.

It's been said man is incomplete until he's married, Then he's finished... OK, old joke...
I feel pretty good about life and what I've accomplished so far. I would feel much better if I had someone to share it with.

Complete? Even single I have to say "yes". I have 9 wonderful, beautiful children I would never try and put back. (would hurt their father more than me). Yes, 9....not a typo.

I reunited with my sister and two brothers two years ago, having been adopted out when I was almost 5.
I moved here from Utah to be closer to all of them.

I have wonderful sincere friends I have met here. Am I complete? Yes. For once in my life I feel 100% that way.

I have a list of goals to complete, so until then I still haven't beaten the game. I'm about half-way through. Get married, have a kid. Last two.
