I will not get involved with another person again (69)
Makes no sense to me why someone would say they would not ever get involved with another person. Does that include day to day interactions with various individuals? What about one's work? One's family? Or do they just not want to be in a relationship because that actually takes some work and effort and they can't be bothered to see past themselves?

I think the poll was about not wanting to be in a relationship again not so much interacting with people on a daily basis. I think its more complicated than people not seeing past themselves as to why people will no longer get involved in a relationship. Some have had their hearts torn out; some abused; some cheated on, some just aren't accepted for who they are, gone through a bad divorce, etc. The reasons are endless. So, unless you have walked a mile in that person's shoes; how can you understand why that person is feeling this way about relationships?

Probably because all of us at some point; myself included, could have or have been in relationships that have torn our hearts apart, bad divorces, cheated on and beaten and so on.
It takes time to heal and possibly some good counseling but having a defeatist attitude towards relationships, getting involved with others, etc.; only leads one to extend that outwards into other aspects of their lives. People have a choice to be happy or make do with what they have or do not have; being and acting defeated only makes their lives more miserable. IMO

That's an excellent attitude to have.
Even though it's against my better judgement, I'll in all liklihood get involved with someone again, someday.
