That's the thing. I never found myself content being single. I don't obsess over the fact of dating, but I definitely do feel better when I can show a girl the affection I have. I dunno, I'm just a romantic from the get go, but I can gather some serious depth from your reply.
I guess I've kinda chilled out about the whole lovesickness, but still... I'll keep on diggin'; hopefully I find those diamonds rather soon.
