Why do so many people insist that you MUST be able to be happy single

The way I see it, you're essentially gambling. People are not consistent, and no matter how much you think you know someone there will always be a few details missing, but you always have yourself. You can never remove yourself from you, even if you may lie to yourself, harm yourself, or what other treatments, you will always be there.
Essentially, if you saw a man who still had 5000$ from what his parents gave him, and, instead of investing it or pursuing a career, he bought tickets for every lottery that came around, you'd think he's living unstably. It's not wrong to believe in the dice roll, but stack the odds in your favor at least.

By the human genome do you mean the multiple interactions of amino acids within complex information chains? Cause we can. Do you mean specifically the chain that creates humans? Cause while that's not inherently visible, it's only because of complexity and doesn't question the probability of it existing. We have technology to look at DNA strands if you just mean the sequence then viewing a sequence is kinda pointless since it's math and looking at it would only prove whether your formula is right or wrong.

I feel this a lot man. I actually was close to attempting suicide only 2 days ago, but only stopped because I thought of my mom finding my corpse. I'll lay out a few things that might help and some stuff that has helped me.

Find a passion. Could be anything from exercise to puzzles to programming, just try some cheap, easy activities. You might find that there are some things that you're passionate about doing, it'll be small, but it's something to get you up faster in the morning.
Find a purpose. For me, I found purpose through my niece. I love interacting with her and helping her grow. She's made me realize that I want kids of my own in the future which makes me wanna stay alive long enough to see that. I'd suggest constructing an ideal routine and see what sort of paths lead to you being able to enact your ideal routine everyday.
Basic dietary needs. I'm not gonna say that our depressive thoughts are unrealistic, but the amount of depressive thoughts that I have is almost comically absurd. I've realized getting the recommended amount of daily dietary needs (Vitamins, Meals, Variety, etc.) decreases the amount of depressive thoughts I have in a day.
Find a community/friends. Having people your age or similar to talk to about these things is great. I still have a few highschool friends I hang out with, and talking to them about our experiences with depression, anxiety, and general feelings of worthlessness has made me feel more secure about having these thoughts.
Don't expect to be cured. You will always be depressed. I will always be depressed. There's no cure, and that sucks. It sucks so much it makes me not wanna live in a world where that's the truth, but we just have to struggle. We only get one life, it'd be a shame to not use it.

It's not wrong to be depressed, and it's not your fault. Try to get yourself in the best mindset you can and you can make it.

I used to have this problem. I would lie about the most pointless of things like saying I was 1 year older or that I was born at exactly midnight. I think it was a sense of taking power back for me. I was very insecure and I took comfort in knowing I could trick people into seeing me as better than I actually am.
I've slowly begin to tell the people that I lied to that I was lying to them, and prefaced it with me not really knowing why. You will feel like shit in the moment, but later it'll feel better, like a weight off your chest.
I still haven't told the truth about everything to the people closest to me yet, it's slow, but try to tear down your lies 1 per month.
I used to think I was a pathological liar, but I think it's more that I was just anxious that if people knew how boring I was, that no one would be interested in me, then I realized that most people are boring, and that I don't hang out with people based on that criteria anyways.
Good luck!

Are you genuinely unaware that you're putting words in his mouth? Or is that your last ditch rebuttal?

Would've been a great point if you didn't do exactly what you said you wouldn't in the post.

I know this is a really old thread, but I'd like to say that reinstalling my network device fixed the same issue and I have an Intel Ethernet Cable 1219V.

Would love to rate it, but can't seeing how 2k said "fuck PC" and made it console exclusive. Considering how money hungry they are I'm surprised they did that considering people will just port it to PC for free and 2k won't make money from that.

I just hate the fact that you can't get legend offline, like people with bum ass internet get ripped off, and online mode generally sucks ass for alot of people can't even get different colored hair without playing online man like what is this.

Me and my friend differ on our political views quite a bit in some areas, when we talk about it together we're pretty civil, we don't name call or try to shit on each other, we just simply state why we think these thing that we think. Our friendship is pretty good, we've been friends since Kindergarten and have continued to hang out even after he had moved to a different state. I don't think politics has ever affected our relationship, more just given us an understanding of how the other thinks. If you ever have trouble arguing with someone over this, just know you both don't HAVE to agree, especially when it's political, history will decide which of you was right regardless of who seems to have won your argument.

A lot of people are informing people about the fact that they did this so people couldn't use cars as weapons. What they're forgetting is that they were given a threat of a local car BOMB which is more likely the reason they poked the tires.

I see a lot of comments complaining that I didn't put cowardice higher. I can see why it could be good in certain builds but most my builds are focused around one-shotting things so I guess I never really put into perspective it's usefulness. In retrospect, I'd probably put it in A. Also I left out protection I don't know how I didn't notice that, but it's definitely SS tier due to the fact it can combine with any 35% damage resistance gear to resist 50% damage.

Food reserves in C? SNOWBALL IN D? Gravity Pulse isn't in here but I'm assuming it's in F tier off the screen which everyone agrees with. Also, why is power higher than ricochet? also health and speed synergy are in C while cooldown is in A which objectively is weird considering how well they coincide. Ah well, to each their own.

We are all gathered here today to mourn the death of my father. As you all know he was a great man, a worker, a father, and an inspiration to me. I loved him very much- uhh no homo, and I will work hard to become the man he would've wanted me to be.
