An international movement of single and partnered people resisting the tyranny of coupledom: i.e., the idea that you must be in a romantic relationship at all times in order to be happy
Quirkyalone (noun): noun/adj. A person who enjoys being single (but is not opposed to being in a relationship) and generally prefers to be alone rather than dating for the sake of being in a couple. With unique traits and an optimistic spirit; a sensibility that transcends relationship status. See also quirkytogether, perkytogether, quirkyslut.
Softkey Left softkey RightAlthough we quirkyalones enjoy solitude, and sometimes even need and crave it, we are NOT loners. We typically have a strong network of friends. Most of us place a high premium on friendship.
