Do married people miss being single again?

People who marry the wrong people regret getting married. She may not regret having you, but she may regret her circumstances. My mother deeply regrets marrying my father and staying with him as long as she did, but she's greatful for my sister and I. Getting married should never ever mean that your dreams, aspirations, freedoms and interests should be taken from you. That's an abusive, controling relationship and it's not healthy for anyone involved and that's what it sounds like your father did to your mother and now she's resenting it. It has no reflection on you, though, so don't worry about that.

As a mother of one and a twice married woman, I can assure you that I regret many of my choices, but the one choice I have never regretted was having my daughter. I never even planned or wanted children, yet she has brought me great joy for 18 years. Your mother loves you, I can guarantee it. She may be depressed, and it most likely has nothing what so ever to do with you. In fact, you probably keep her going, as my daughter does me =)

a lot of people think about the past and how the felt then and how they feel now, see theres things in my past i miss now but theres so much stuff that i dont miss and i wouldnt change stuff and people in my life now for anything, and i think your mum may be the same, like she loves you wouldnt give u up for anything or anyone etc, but theres some things that she has now that she could change and that she does miss from the past. dont be upset just know she loves you

I do not miss beeng single at all. If I was single I would not hav had my son and thats something I can never regret. I am sure your mom loves you and that she is sad for the pass and not beeng so young any more and able to do all things that we did when we were free. the only way that she would not have had all the responsibility is by not getting married. If you think that she dis a great job of it than she is probably happy.

HI im married now for 5 months. I would say being single stil different cuz you can do your own thing without any others decisions cuz when your married yo have to consider your partner's decision as they say when your married you and your partner is one already so whats your is her too. And being married you lots of responsibility not just for yourself but for your husband too especially if you kids already. And being single life is so easy you can go anywhere you want to go but when your married you cant do that anymore cuz you will be thinking your family already.

Yes i admit it, sometimes how i wish I am single still. because of so many thngs I wanna do which i can not do anymore since I am married with kids. But no regrets really. Those were just wishful thinking because of my selfishness. Because once you got married, you should be ready to gave up yourself for the sake of your family. I just can't help it sometimes especially when I got bored. But I will not excahnge my family to being single again.

I have been married for 10yrs now and yes, sometimes I do miss being single again. Same goes for my husband and this wish of ours specially peaks up when we are having one of our memorable fights. Both of us wish we were single again, that we never met and never had to waste 10yeras of our lives with each other. But seriously jokes apart, when things do become a bit too much, what with handling home, office, kid and everything in-between, I wish for an instant that I had my freedom, my space, my peace, my solitude, my rationality, my selfishness, my luxuries, my privacy back in my life. But then again I feel that if this is life and if I have to walk it, then its better that I have already walked so much of it…I would not like to start anew, I would rather finish the walk. And as to what your mom is feeling, I am sure that this is how 90% of women feel down the line…the intensity may differ but we all long for our carefree days, no matter how much we love our husband or our children. So don’t feel sad about it, it has nothing to do with you personally.

I think that your mum would never regret having you at all. It would be unimaginable for any parent to regret having their kids. Yes maybe they wish they had waited or done something else first but never have i spoken to someone who regretted having kids completely. It sounds as though your mum thinks that now you are growing up, she doesnt have time for what she used to dream about because shes still making sure that you are fine. I dont know how old you are but maybe you could encourage your mum a little to go out and start having hobbies and interests again away from the home? I used to think back to before I was married and had kids and to be honest, i loved being single but i also love that im a mum and that i have a legacy for when im gone. When my kids got old enough to go to school i started going out and doing my own thing again. Not often, but enough so that i didnt feel that i was a useless waste of space who was only ever good enough to be a mum. Maybe thats what your mum needs? a reason to be someone other than just 'mum' or 'my wife'. Ask her what she used to love doing and see if you can find information on it and give it to her. Show her that there are dreams you can still follow even if you are married and a mother. Hope that helps!
