What's wrong in choosing to be single?

You are 24 and you are still young. Enjoy yourself now because when you do get married there are new responsibilities in life. You will still enjoy life, it is just that you will take on new roles, etc. I saw 28 or 30 is a great age to settle down and get married. You have enough time to start a family, etc. at that age. There is nothing wrong with wanting to enjoy yourself before you have to be a mother and be responsible for your children. Live it up. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

there's nothing wrong in choosing to be single. If you're loving yourself, then go ahead. Don't be affected in what your sister is telling you. I think she is just concerned about you. That you might get old, without a partner. But if you choose to wait and settle down when you feel it is the right time, then there is nothing wrong. Tell them that you're just not ready to be involved with someone right now. And in due time, you will be ready. Don't force yourself. Love with find you.

There's just nothing wrong with being single. Hey, I would love to be single. Except for the fact, I love my children. That's the only good thing that happened in my marriage.

Nothing's wrong with choosing to be free. It's your right and no one must take that from you. In fact, I envy you for taking a firm stand. My Mama and I planned for me to get married at the age of 27. But my bad luck, I got married at 21 and got separated at 23. That's the result of an arranged and forced marriage. Take it from me, I know from experience, anything that is done just because you are pressured by someone else (like your sister) or just because you wanna please somebody (like my Papa) will never succeed. I suggest you tell your sister as gently as you can to let you live your life the way you want it to be. I know she just wants you to be happy with a man but let her know that you can be happy with yourself and that you will know when that man who can make you happy comes along because you'll surely grab him. I mean, your 24, I'm sure you're matured enough to decide for yourself. Don't believe on hearsays that a bf-gf relationship will not in anyway rob you of your freedom. I'm not being cynical here, I don't say no to any relationship, but let me tell you a fact: A bf or a gf will likely to take your time and commitment. Yeah, you may share interests, travel the same places, do the same things, but well, it's not the same with doing everything your way and because you enjoy it and not just because your partner enjoy it. I'm blabbing here, taking so much space. I'm not really a virtuous woman to give you advice but I just knew a little of some stuff, from experience. Everything's still your decision. Don't rush things... remember, a work done in haste is a work in waste.

HELL NO! I am 24 and single too and i have 2 sisters 2 brothers and a mum who are always on at me to find someone. Good for you for not listening to them! You really do have plenty of time for that

There is nothing wrong in being single at the moment. Everyone has their own time to fall in love and i guess your sister should give you that freedom. There are many girls who get married at the age of 26 and 27 in my country. Its not a big deal if your 24 and not yet married. That's is pretty normal in fact. Talk to your sister and try and make her understand somehow that you will get married but a little later as at the moment you are more interested in traveling, get involve in a lot of charities etc.

The problem is my sister keeps telling me that I'm at the age where i need to start looking for someone to settle down with Well who's life is it? Yours or hers....Sure she is entitled to her opinion BUT if you are happy then whats the big deal..I mean why put yourself into a relationship if its NOT what you REALLY want ya know.....you'd just be wasting your time and your partners time which is silly IMO....You do what YOU feel is right for you and leave it at that....And kudos to you for your choice and sticking to it btw...Good for you.

There is nothing wrong in being single.. And if you are happy enough being single then it is totally your free will!! In fact what I would like to say is try to change your perspective towards relationships a little. It is not that you are bound every time you go in a relationship. I mean relationship doesn't always means a binding up your life!! Try to go with that person who always partner you in your life.. that is why we call it a partner, not a hunter who hunt you down too end your freedom and cage you down. I always look forward for some one with whom I can feel free as never before. freedom is my motto!! I can't stand dominating people and specially dominating boyfriends. Again am not saying you to go out and search someone out there for you... let it come by itself.. But getting out there and searching for some isn't a bad idea as well.. not many of us are that lucky in love.. And I don't want to be one who in the end decides to live with what ever kind of man she gets in her life an just live with with and regret whole of their life that at least they should have tried to find their soul mate... And one more thing.. you said you've never been in a relationship before . Then how do you know that staying single is your best decision? You've never experienced the other side of the coin so.. you never know!! So don't be so stiff. Don't turn down love if it comes your way.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being single. We have all the right and all the time in the world to do what we want to do with our lives. Why rush when there is no rush? Cheers!!

Of course there is nothing wrong with you choosing to live your life in a certain manner. No matter what that is. People often assume that what makes them happy is a one size fit all for the rest of the world. NOT! Unfortunately some people think that the only way that you can have a fulfilling life is to incorporate a partner. And that is just not always the case. To try and get someone to think otherwise would be like talking to a brick wall, because they can't see beyond their present situation. I have never been married and people often tell me that with all of the success that I have had in other areas that my life would be so much better married. I am like excuse me but aren't you the one that is always complaining about how your life is and how you would like for it to be different? Well an indicator to you should be that I never complain about my like, because I love it! I love every minute of it. So just maybe you need to figure out how to fall in love with your life and not worry so much about mine. If you are happy thats all that you need to be concerned with. You will never be able to please everybody all of the time anyway.

Well your right,there no wrong to stay single for the mean time because you choose to be single then go head.:-0 No body can tell you what you want because you are just the one who can decide what you want but yeah it is good to take some advice and good luck to all you will go through.:-0 GOd bless

absolutely nothing wrong with that at all! not everyone wants to be tied down to someone forever! Yeah im almost 23 and im married with 2 kids but i've been with my husband for 5 years, im comfy with him and he with me, if your sister doesn't respect your wishes you should tell her that it is your life not hers, what you choose to do with your life is up to you not her

There is nothing wrong at all if that is what you want. Your sister and her friends should respect what you want. I think that it is great that you are open to having a relationship at some point, but I do understand about waiting. You have things that you want to do before you move on to a different stage in life. If you are happy with who you are and how your life is going than I think that it is great. I have a sibling that has been single his entire life (37) I sometimes wish he would find someone because I do not want him to be alone in life, but it is his choice and he is happy so I let him be.

Nothing is wrong with being single. I chose to be single upto this moment, at 27. I want to settle down at around 30, if and only if I find the right guy or he finds me. With the mention of your activities, I can presume that you are well satisfied with your self, because your soul is happy. That's most important. I am the same, I diverted my love to a lot of people that my soul is just contented and happy. Life is nice, live it, love it, enjoy every minute of it -- single or otherwise.

I was single for a while, but I did not like it. It was lonely. It is okay to be single, but eventually, you get sick of it. Eventually, you feel like you need someone because being alone does not feel so good.

You're an adult and have a right to make the choice to be single, even if you're 65 and still single. There are worse situations on this earth than not being married. Save yourself for the right man - someone who loves you for who you are, and would die for you if he needed to. Wait to find someone who is willing to marry you and grow old with you, not use you and get tired of you then throw you away. You are very smart to wait for the right one. Good luck to you!

Good for you. There is nothing wrong with choosing to stay single, even if you choose to remain single all your life. Your sister must be one of those people who don't feel they are complete unless they are one of a couple. Staying single or getting married or having children is a personal choice and your to make for yourself. It certainly is not your sisters (or anyone elses) place to make it for you. Tell her (nicely) to but out and get a hobby, you are happy the way you are.

Good day... Your life your choice I mean, if you want to be single then should be single nothing wrong with that. If you decide later on that that you're ready to get married then go ahead get marry nothing wrong with that either. The most important thing is your not pressured or forced into a marriage.

There's nothing wrong. Don't force yourself to find someone. That someone will find you if you are fated to meet him.

nope, definitely theres nothing wrong bout it.just dont mind your sister bragging you about having no BF or relationship with the opposite gender, shes just jealous i think of being you as free.LOLZ.hope that helps/.
