its nice being single. you don't have to worry about coming home late. you dont need to remember a lot of important dates. you dont need to be conscious about how you look. you dont have someone to share popcorn with when watching a movie. you dont have someone to tell you that its all gonna be okay when you have a problem. you have no one to grow old with.
yes, its nice being single. its so nice that all the miseries in the world are attributed to being alone. it may be nice but remember that you can only take too much niceness.
the irony, being single may have its advantages but the truth remains the same: no one wants to be alone. thats why we all strive to search the world for our one true love. if you're single and your are miserably tired of it, its time to stop pitying yourself and start your worldwide search for the right person for you. the right person has always been out there. its just a matter of finding them.

I just broken up with the boy whom I love very much. He's the one I wanna to live with. But these days , I am trying to get through the sadness and find out that the temporary single time is appropriate . I am busy with my work and my study. I wanna to be improved. One day, I may find a true love. Hope I won't miss it.

Sorry I am not single, I am cmmitted. It took me time to be single but love I think has it's own way. I was avoiding to fall in love, but it just happens when it's really meant for you, even you don't research for that someone. Anyway good luck to you! But all of us have someone who really meant for us. God bless! Have a nice day!

definitely, nobody wants to stay single in his entire life. good thing that your special someone arrived in your life effortlessly... you never made an extra mile finding your perfect match.
hopefully soon, i could find mine... as i journey with life, i guess he's out there waiting for me. and im sure il be happier also like what you exactly feel right now. though finding our perfect match is not that easy, but then, we can work things out...
good luck to your relationship!!!

I agree that sometimes being single is nice. You often learn things about yourself that you wouldn't have learned in a relationship. The important thing is to use your single time wisely. Get involved in new hobbies. Pursue your interests. Make your dreams a reality! If you are busy pursuing the things you enjoy, all of the suddent a person who is a great fit for you will come out of the woodwork.

I can definitely relate to you there! I am single and I love being single! As you say, you have so much freedom and there's no one telling you what to do. The only thing I miss as a result of being single is that love and companionship that each partner shares. I do like my current state though and I don't think I would change it for anything. Still, the fact that I have found my lot, this is a great help and there's always someone to talk to here. Andrew

being single or committed have advantages and of course disadvantages.
and you're right , the right person for you is yet to come. its just that the time is not yet now for you to find the right one.
be patient, and enjoy your being single and always put in mind that you will meet him/her at the right time and at the right place.

I can see both sides to this as well. Being single has its perks, but being in a relationship does too. And I think the pros of being in a relationship can far outweigh the cons, especially since there is that "no one wants to be alone" thing. I'm in a relationship now and I like having things to look forward to with them. Not that I don't already have things to look forward to all by myself, but it's cool to share your experiences with someone, whether they're your boyfriend or friend.

Its a lot nicer having someone you really get along with.
Lets face it, the thing in life is being with someone you love and who's company you enjoy, who affirms you and does not give you a hard time.
The lousy thing always is having a bad relationship.
Meanwhile, being single does not have to be lonesome affair if you have a lot of good friends.
Its really all a balance.

Before, I always worry about being single but now, looking at those I know who are married all ready, I have to give marrying a very serious thought. I am a very care free person and I don't want additional baggage with me. Not that I want to be married but I think I am not ready for it yet. I have large group of friends who are all ready married and complaining every now and then. Very few can really say that they are happy with their married life but they stay being married just for the sake of their children. As of now, I am enjoying my life being single. I can go wherever I want, I can decide on my own and most of all I am ruling my own life. So for those who says that being single sucks, think again!

i do agree with that and iu dont to put ur heart into something that is useless anyway thats the way i feel. Love is beginning to be a joke to people so u might as well be single. I realize that u cant find true people anymore im 43 and havent found anyone true. Other people may disagree with my assumption but thats the way some people feel cuz the fake women or men are out there and u become afraid of trying, i know i have. To me ive just been cursed with being alone from day one. And realize that u cant trust anyone.

Yes, it is nice being single. All I have to worry about is myself. I can do whatever I want whenever I want. I don't have to deal with anybody else. I very much enjoy being alone and doing my own thing.

Well it is really nice being single until now!
I am expecting some one who could change my world towards her world, but i feel now it is not the correct time for it. Hopefully i need to wait for few more years to enjoy that feel :)

Being single certainly does have its advantages, but I wouldn't know what to do if I were. Sigh. It's weird, though. The first three things you mentioned apply to me as well. My husband allows me to come home whenever I want when I'm out with my friends; after thirteen years of being married I've forgotten important dates, and I'm usually not that conscious of the way I look, although I do make an effort from time to time. About the popcorn, though, I don't have someone to share it with because it's usually gone in a few seconds. That's why I have to buy my own. I hope you find your very own soul-mate. Ideally, someone who lets you be "single" once in a while. Good luck!!
