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?
