What do you think the good points and the bad points are about being in a relationship? Was the best time in your life so far when you were in a relationship or when you were single? Are the good factors of love worth all the pain?
Any thoughts?

I love being in love. I wish everyone would be able to find their soulmate and spend the rest of their life in love. Love is hard thoug, it takes work. When looking for love however, I think the best way to find it is by not looking. When you are tryin to do something you change the natural ways of yourself, to find true love you have to be in your natural element because lets face it no onw can and should change just for love, so why would you want to start out in love as a fake (not yourself). Being in love is the most wonderful thing, as long as it your actually receiving it back. To be in love with someone that is not in love with you is probably the worst thing ever.

Yep that must be so painful! well i was for a little while. I was in a domestically violent relationship. I did love him/thought i loved him at the begining of our relationship, and thought he loved me. Right up until I left him, (some of the time) he claimed he loved me. But it was so obvious that he didnt. I actually said to him fequently towards the end "you DONT love me" but that just made him angry. On another post i did, everyone was saying "dont look for love and you will find it" i think that is so true. Some of the best things happen in life when you least epect them. I think Love is such a strong emotion, it can either feel really good or really painful. There wont be a middle feeling.

Being in a positive relationship is great! I would easily say my best time in my life so far was when I was in a relationship. But it did turn into one of the worst times later. I think the best parts were definately worth everything we put into it. I don't wish it never happened. Makes dating now rather difficult because I'm constantly looking for something THAT good again. Good isn't good enough.
The best points of being in a relationship is always having a best friend there. You come home and get hugs and love. You have someone who knows everything about you and loves you just the same. You have two incomes. :-) That always helps.
The bad points are that you're dealing with twice the problems, twice the stress, etc. His problems are your problems and your problems are his. But you have twice the effort to put towards them.
I would prefer to be in a healthy happy relationship much more than being single.

That sounds good, and yeah two incomes is definatly a bonus lol. Although i supose you could argue twice the expenses? and yeah i guess trying to find someone else after being happy for so long would be hard. I think its good that you are looking for some one in particular though. I bet you will find someone. It might be different, but it will probably be just as good!
Thank you for the comment!

I love feeling loved by someone and having them spoil me like I'm a princess. I love feeling that someone actually loves me and cares for me more than more parents do. I don't always like being with someone 24 7 but being in a relationship sometimes involves that but i like of course going out with the girls and having a good night out but possibly falling asleep with the one you love is a good thing. I'm not sure if i was happy being in a relationship or not because i was treated like crap and i was never aware of how he was treating me until i got out of the relationship and met other guys who buy me stuff and care about me and care of what i am doing with my life.
