They say that like it's a bad thing

Single forever? Not possible, time doesn’t exist. Also, more like only for the rest of whoever’s current life. Unless whoever has all their memories in their next life, good luck. And all the other people have their memories too. So really, good luck.

That’s a good way to stay on Earth forever, don’t let go. I should have let go when I had the chance.

Just watch The Last Shaman, he had a gf, and didn’t anymore, he realized that isn’t needed. Well, for him anyways. Clearly he didn’t really love her, as he might still be with her.

Letting go is better then having a lover.
