being a single isn't bad at all. still you can smile on your solitude and enjoy the peace inside your heart. but sometimes it sucks. what do you think?

each part of life is beautiful in it's own way. being involved in a couple isn't all milk and honey. in fact you get to face more issues than if you did if you were single

yes i also agree it has its advantages but in the long run when you have done the freedom, time comes when you realize why are you alone? and i agree it is happy in some ways but it kind of sucks at the same time

despite all common beliefs , i didn't find staying single harassing in any way.in fact its much better than being surrounded by faking, over emotional ,irritating people under the same roof.i mean i was there in a shared accomodation some times before .few of my flat mates were pathetic and it was equally pathetic putting up with them.since i have moved out i have enjoyed my new found freedom.ya i miss my guys around but then internet and phones are always handy. i don't have a boyfriend now ,i feel completely peaceful without all those emotional baggage.ya things can be tough sorting out all the things by oneself but thats a lesser hassle than the kind of experiences i had with relationships going wary.

single person life is not bad at all but still there are many difficulties in living a life os single as in one's person mind there are many more tensions which he/she cannot share with her/his partners to reduce her mind from tension. in relationships also here are many problem which one person faces i.e. responsibility

I've been single for about 5 years. It has its ups and downs. I enjoy not having to tell someone where I'm going or where I've been...but then again-there's no one waiting for me at home. I have kids and I think that's what's kept me going this long. Every now and then-I'll notice a happy couple and think-why not me? Then I remind myself that this time I know what I want and I just haven't found it yet. I'm not really trying to find anyone-I'm waiting for it to happen naturally. And when it does happen, I just know it'll be with someone amazing!

Sometimes being single is not a bad thing at all. It's being lonely that sucks. If you can maintain being single and still get the things you need emotionally and even sexually withouth commitment then being single is an excellent situation. If one find him/her self alone much of the time and needing that emotional connection then it is of course not a good situation. It can be quite depressing actually. Ok me, I love being single. I have had some pretty rocky relationships and the time off is great right now. I have time to focus on myself and my daughter. Get my life in order and I dont have to worry about anyone else. Plus the girls think I'm cute so I am quite satisfied...

I think that being single has its advantages and disadvantages. When you are looking to discover who you really are and what you want in life, it's often wise to be single because then you can focus on your goals and be confident that you do anything to achieve them. It's when you start dwelling on being in a relationship when it becomes hard. As humans, we strive to connect with people, and often times we find ourselves lonely when we go to long without that connection.

it is the ultimate truth that we born alone and die alone..and rest of the things are just role plays in life.who thinks deeply about this fact he.she always like to be single in life no matter what religion following..
