Do you really need someone to live..

People are so hopeless. They are so afraid of loneliness.
Or being on their own.
Is it really that bad?
Why do they all need someone else to 'survive?'
Or get through life.
Nobody ever said that life should be spent with someone.
Everyone is too afraid.
Or maybe they just want to attach themselves to something.
Yet then I'm not sure why they would.
Maybe it makes them feel fulfilled?
Still.
I was watching Passions today. And Louise [sp?] and Fancy were having a conversation about relationships. Louise is all like 'Oh now my life is over because I can't be with Sharidan.' kind of thing. While Fancy is like 'We will find true love and happiness again.' etc.
So I started thinking.. Well why do you need 'true love' in order to find happiness?
Is 'love' really even all that great?
But I guess I don't know. I've never been in love. And I don't know if I will.
Yet whenever I think of spending my life alone.. It really doesn't seem all that bad.
But possibly that's only because it goes according with the things I do or don't want.
And still I have to ask..
Why is it that people believe happiness only exists if they have a special someone?..
