Solitude I did not chose

I don't think I was meant to live alone. I really don't want to live alone.

I don't see my solitude as the result of conscious decisions, but I suppose it is because as much as I enjoy companionship, I would rather live alone than live with others under crazy circumstances.

For instance, I suppose I could have intentionally gotten pregnant and become a single mother. Perhaps I could still do that. But I know that I am not the kind of woman who could properly raise a child on her own.

I wonder if there's anything more I could do to work towards ending my solitude without changing my values.
