Why is that people require a significant other?

Ideally, it should inherent biological trait required in order to ensure that the human race will mate; however I argue that perhaps it's a fatal flaw that transcends past futile life.

I'd of course be lieing if I said that I've never had such thoughts. Yet I think Buddha had a point when he said "our mind creates this world."

Both you and I should be able to cope with the infinite possibilities that life offers. One of those being that we may forever be alone.
