How does being single long term affect you spiritually?

I'm asking this because I was watching this video (that did not go into detail) where this lady briefly mentioned that monks apparently get heightened spiritually in some way.

I'm asking because ive been single for almost 10 years now. Relationships have always had some sort of blockage for me. The thing is that I do want to be in a relationship, but I'm not desperate for one. It's just something I yearn for sometimes

Is there some sort of power that comes out of being single? I'm very comfortable being this way and am also very picky. I also want to mention that ive been completely abstinent for the last 5 years.

This thought never occurred to me until now for some reason. Is there something that I'm missing out on? Like is there some sort of benefit that could help me out that I'm not utilizing?

Am I the only one that just... doesn't like any of the ranked modes? (Except zones)

Ive tried SO hard over the last 2 years to enjoy playing ranked. I reached X rank a while ago and it was a great achievement for me personally but I just cannot bring myself to truly like any of the modes

Clam blitz is just god awful. I simply do not play it at all. like ever. if its in rotation I just tell myself "welp guess im not playing ranked right now"

Tower control is... eh. Meh. I can play it and i do somewhat often but its just not fun riding tower (and yes I do ride tower often lol). The only way to win is making yourself an open target to everybody

Rainmaker I have such mixed feelings about. I do kind of like playing it. its the other ranked mode I'll choose to play and be fine doing it. again its just you have to make yourself a target for everyone to win. the rainmaker weapon itself is nice at least. I dont hate this mode but I dont love it either. It's just okay.

Now splat zones is something I can get behind. I do actually like playing it. its different from all the other modes and im seeing a pattern here that when you play zones you dont have to make yourself an open target in order to win. I think that might be why I like it. but its also sorta similar to turf war which is my favorite mode

I mostly play turf war (begrudgingly, since im an e-liter main and chargers aren't the best for turf war). I think its fun cuz its so much more freeing. like you have room to just run around and have fun which I think is why I like playing it. its just the big major issue I have is how you can be winning the entire game but you get wiped out in the last 20 seconds and suddenly you just lose. but oh well I still like playing it.

If ranked mode rotations didnt just shuffle in different game modes every 2 hours and instead had splat zones always available, I would be over the moon. and I would love playing this game so so so so much more.

also i hate that getting knocked out nets you ZERO coins. that is absolutely diabolical in my opinion lol.

Buuuuuutt I know many many people like most if not all the ranked modes and thats great. im not judging anyone at all for liking the game modes. I'm just venting and I just wish that there was something else to it. idk what though
