blogggggggg

No offense to st valentine, but single soldiers definitely do fight better. In every action a person takes in life, some lesson or skill is learned, sometimes the increase in skill is very small, and at other times the increase in skill is very large. Relationships, fit right at the edge of the small end. This is because the main outcome of a relationship is enjoyment and the experience that you gain from one is mostly only applicable to future relationships. One cannot fly a plane with the knowledge gained from a relationship or do anything tangible for that matter, for in reality it means about nothing. Relationships are fun and they take a great deal of time, which makes them extremely addicting. WoW is the same way. People play for hours upon hours upon even more hours trying to get to a certain level or get the latest item, but at the end of the day, they have learned nothing but WoW strategy valuable learning time, wasted. When a person is heavily addicted to WoW, they do not even notice that they are wasting their lives away. They do not notice that other people are improving themselves and enhancing their skills. All that matters is WoW. As ridiculous as it seems, the only difference between a minute playing WoW and a minute in a relationship is that your body tells you that spending the minute in a relationship is acceptable. They have both been effectively wasted in respect to a man who spent that minute studying, practicing free throws, or throwing a baseball. The guy in the relationship will shout "nerd" at the kid who spent his minutes wisely just as the man who does drugs wishes to coerce the person who does not into being hooked because he is insecure about his habits. It is a shame that most nerds turn to videogames, because with productive imput with all the minutes that we are given on this earth, a man who is single will make groundbreaking leaps in whatever field he enters, while the man who is not will never think that the relationship he values so much is the very thing that is preventing him from doing the same.

I'm not entirely sure what you are referring to here, but I would disagree. First of all, history would prove that people involved in relationships have done great things, and on a practical level, interaction with others can help understanding or help a workload. Nothing is done truly alone in today's world. Also, I believe there is a psychological and evolutionary need for interaction.
But on a macro scale, if say, a country has this same attitude of isolation, then they will all be working towards their own goals, which often leads to conflict.
In my mind, cooperation is key for the advancement.
