Yes I feel this way. I am happy, independent and have every material thing I could want. But it does feel that being in a relationship with anyone is just not meant for me. I have had relationships and have dated, but only one relationship clicked.
When I was a child I met a boy who became my best friend, fell in love with him, had a relationship, then it ended and we did not stay in contact for 20 years. In 2016 he came back in my life and so did all the wonderful feelings. I was hoping my solitude was finally over. But he'd been dating someone and is now living with that woman. So yes I think for whatever reason I am just meant to be by myself.
I will admit having him back in my life and still not being able to be with him is horrible, but I have no desire at this stage of my life to actively search for someone. If through my work and volunteer work someone comes into my life then great. Otherwise, I am fine and content on my own. I know that sounds weird to some people.
Hope that helps.
