I seriously dislike being single

Do I have a problem?

I’m a "force multiplier" who knows for a fact I function better with a "partner in crime" than alone. To me, life is a team sport; I’m more productive and comfortable fighting the world as a duo. Why is this pathologized as "codependency" or low self-esteem? If I prefer strategic synergy and a shared lifestyle over hyper-independence, why must it be a "psychological issue" rather than a valid personal preference? The current society WORSHIPS hyper independence and you can see it in how women get applauded for not having kids and such and "self-madeness" and such. I am also not desperate, such a theorethical "partner in crime" must follow a set of criteria, it can´t be anybody.

This hyper-independence and singledom praising is bullshit. It primarily benefits sellers who get to sell more if people live separately as single individuals as opposed to a group of people splitting costs. I see no reason why a normal, healthy person should avoid a relationship at all costs and present it as a flex.
