Single or married?

I've only been married for less than a year, but I also prefer being married. Since I lived in Indonesia and he lives in Finland, I had to leave everything behind (family, friends, my job). Now I'm unemployed but I must say that I love this life...I know that back in Indo I could earn money and use it anyway I wanted to, whereas here I have to be very careful in spending money 'coz only my husband's earning money, but still I wouldn't trade this life for anything. I know what you mean about people pestering you with those questions. I see you're from Malaysia...in Asian countries those questions are considered to be proper chit-chat questions and I have a problem with that, because it's really annoying. Some people find their loved ones later in their life. What's wrong with that? I mean, what's the use in forcing yourself to have a relationship just because everybody thinks you're old enough to do it, right? Now I'm rambling hi hi hi... Anyway, conclusion: I LOVE being married. And yes, it's not easy as we have to compromise, but it's still worth it. ;-D

Well, I basically regard myself as single right now. I am enjoying it. I guess sometimes we just want the things we don't have at that moment. Like singletons would love to have the married life and vice versa. I don't think about it too much, if it happens, it happens. I still try to enjoy my each day to the fullest (though I often find myself a bit moody). *smiles*

I will never marry. I can see living with the man of my dreams but I would never marry him. And I have known since I was about 10 that I would never want to be a mother and nothing has changed.So consider me a s happy single.

hi there gr8life i am a single mother not married i do want to get married one day but i will wait until god thinks i am ready for thanks for this discussion

being as a mother and as wife you can't describe your words because you have done lot of thins for your family so it is not easy to balance all the things in one way so you have done that so luckily you have found good partner.

it doesnt matter wether we are single or married :) life is full of happiness and many people knows how to enjoy themsleves and that is great . i dont want to get married so soon .:0

I am single right now, 21 years old so i have my life ahead of me, but i am getting tired of being single. It's cheaper than having a girlfriend, but not as much fun and stuff you know? Of course, everything has it's good things and bad, but i'll take those bad ones with the good ones. i don't tend to really look for someone, because people say that one day, when you least expect it, someone will appear in your life, just like in your case =D

i want to be always single . without any attachment or kind of this . i can be a free bird always thinking of god

i am single and happy. but it's not that, that i will not marry.....i will marry after the age of minimum 25

yes, i like to live single, but it some time so hard to find so things in life? where ever you go u r single that type of inner feeling hunts to u? so better to be married..when i'm married after that problems..solved with cool minded..wife and husband share together and live together that the indian marriage system..but recently some problems facing, both are job holders both are going to office no one in home to care taker of childerns. yes is not so easy but u can face the problems achive it with positive mind..ok

I am in a committed relationship with my live-in boyfriend and I wouldn't trade it for being single. I had some great times when I was single, partying and all but I'm over it. I want to settle down and have my own family. So I would rather be the way I am now. I am not married but I do intend to be if all goes well. My goal is to have a family; the family I never had. And I can't do that alone.

The best part of being married is having the baby... and the best part of being single is being free to do whatever you want when you want it and how you want it...but if i have to choose between the two... would rather be married because i have my baby...i already lived a full life when i was single and now i am ready to live a full life as a mother and as a wife... though being a wife sucks from time to time...

If I had to do it all over again, I would just stay single! I've just been through so much, I would just prefer it that way! If you'll look up my post that I started,"why do I even need anyone", it will explain a lot, and it is very interesting,and it pertains to this subject! I actually got back some interesting feedback on it!

Life as single as well as married have their own place & time-both are important. Being married entails a lot of responsibility than being single. To live a married life successfully needs a more mature attitude, a mental state where you are willing to think of others, able to give more, be less selfish. Hence one should marry when he or she is financiaaly capable & feels mature enough to carry responsibilties of married life. Marraige is a very important event in our life-it should be handled WITH CARE

I think we are so much in common in this aspect. I have married for four years and now my son is three years old. I also miss the time when I was single because it was free and I could do whatever I liked and have much more of my personal time. I think it is still better to be married because this is life. There is only one exception. That is when I am mad at my husband, I would prefer I was single.

I've never been married so I can't compare which is better. I've been living with my boyfriend for two years now and have lived with another boyfriend for about the same amount of time, maybe longer. But throughout I've always considered myself single even thought I was in a relationship. I know it's not the same as being married. I'm content with being single. I've never had a strong desire to be married. Like they say the grass is always greener on the other side.
