Every one passes thru the bachelors life. You be a single and have certain degree of freedom and enjoyment. Of course there are pros and cons in each of these two. Just imagine and say if Given a choice which one will you prefer - being a single or getting married? Why?

well, both have there share of advantage and disadvantages. but i would prefer to be single. there will be no responsiblites, u will be the person responsible for ur actions.........u can live life the way u want on the edge, but if married, we have to slow down, need to be thoughtfull and more responsible.......i dont deny, the fact that there are disadvantages of being single but still i prefer to be single

Well I rather settle down for good,even life wont be perfect, I still want a partner that I wanna spend my life with. I don't wanna be alone. So I rather get married soon anyway it's almost there and I am very happy with her. She was always their for me no matter what. My life change and learned alot from her. Then being single,that your life doesn't have a meaning, and sometimes you feel emptiness. So how about you? Good morning!

Thanks for opening the discussion. I should add one more dimension to this issue and that is time. It is not at all a matter of pleasure to have a single life and assure virginity or chastity for a long time of one's life, say at least about 15 years after attaining puberty. And a single life with one or more babes as friends is something alluring. On the other hand a married life is the general target of the general. It is assuring and disciplined and with a demand to remain responsible. Here too, time has an important role. The question is when one going to get married.

I've been single For a very quite long time...and sometimes I feel lonely. Specially when friends are busy..I guess it's MY NATURE as human to be love and love someone, not just to sleep around, but for comittment in life.

I have been both ,and given the choice I would much rather be with someone ,it doesnt mean that you have to be married to them ,but to have a long term relationship is ideal.It provides companionship and support.As we get older we all need someone really,and those who go into old age with anyone must find that they are very isolated.I would choose to have someone to share with everytime.My friends have a daughter,who has upset the applecart in some way or other,she is theri ownly daughter,no sons,and they are getting older now,and how I wished they would all call a truce and make up,im sure the catalyst for this haapening has been inflated,but at the moment they all seem to have nade their minds up that they arent all going to put things right again,so as thet grow older time is clearly being wasted,and im hoping that they will all make up soon.
