Would you rather be in a relationship or be single??

It depends. If someone is in an abusive relationship then it is better to be single. I think relationships are over rated; one should get comfortable with themselves and being alone and do a little self-introspection before getting involved with someone. People that are in and out of relationships just for fear of being alone are very unhappy. It seems people who are single by choice are more satisfied and happier with their life overall than those who are involved with someone who is not right for them.

I'd definitely want to be in a relationship than being single but the person with me in that relationship should be the one I want to be with because relationships started just for the sake of having one end up becoming burdens and the result might be hurt feelings and broken hearts.You might get irritated with small things the other person does and might hurt him in reaction.So one should never rush into falling in love,but wait for the right person!!..:)

I don't think that relationships are for everyone and I'm certainly someone that falls into that category! I have been living alone for many years now and I really love my independence, I love being single. Obviously there's some things I probably miss out on and that is the love and companionship that a relationship brings but I have become so used to my routine now that I'm actually comfortable with it. I think that being single is proving to be quite popular in the modern age, there's no longer a negative stigma attached to this state. I think that if I gave up on the idea of being single now then I would probably start to feel crowded and I would definitely want my own space! Andrew

Being in a relationship means that you are trapped. It means that you will want a partner to share your happiness, sorrows, ups, downs, achievements, etc. Each of us are meant to be with a partner right? But freedom should not be an issue because in the first place if you are not ready to be in a relationship, if you are not ready to please, understand, listen to your partner then it would be better to stay single. Being in a relationship should not be forced because I believe that chances are, it will definitely not work out. It really depends if you want to be in a relationship or you want to stay single. It's a matter of preparing yourself so that you won't hurt anybody.

I believe that people were made in a way that they cannot live well alone, they need to feel loved, and give love, and be in a relationship. I dont think i would feel well if i were single. Life is so full and lovely when you set up a family.

for me, i want to be in a relationship because it gives me the love that i don't find in my family. all of us will be in a situation that will find someone who will comfort, love and understand who we really are and we need someone that will be with us when we get old and share the times that they have.

For me, I'd rather be single, at least to some point. I have divorced 3 times, and my last live-in relationship ended a little over a year ago, after almost 4 years. At present, I have two close friends, one that comes here, he lives 4 hours away, about once a month for a weekend. The other lives nearby. And although, I like being on my own, it's nice to have friends that worry and care about you. They both call, just to see how I'm doing, and if I need anything. Matter of fact, one stopped by this morning, to drop off his lawnmower, lol. I haven't gotten one yet, since I've only lived here a month. I think we all get along so well because we all have one basic thing in common, we are all wildland firefighters, and we love what we do.

I'd rather be single than be in a bad relationship. But if it's good, I'd rather be in a relationship. Makes me happy, that's why.

I am very much happy with my partner so I'd say that i'd rather be in a relationship than being single... You know, it is nice to share your life with someone you truly love... it's nice sharing beautiful and not so beautiful things with her... we have been together for five years and 1 month and we have decided to live together four years ago... i love her, i really do.. i wouldn't trade her with anyone or anything else in this world...

I used to think that I can live alone so I thought I would be single forever but when I met and fell in love with my boyfriend I thought of building a family with him and stay in the relationship that way, I would enjoy his company and love and we would together enjoy our family in the future. People now say that it they would rather be single for life but I know that there will come a time that they would feel emptiness and would opt to be in a relationship.

I think it's better to be in a relationship. I wouldn't want to be alone, it's nice to have someone share your day with or to share your problems with.

I think i'd rather be single. Being single is fun. You can date anyone you wanna date, you can go out without anyone trying to phone you and ask you where you are at that time of day, you can do anything you want without hurting anybody. There's no emotional baggage, and when you go to a bar, you can dance and flirt without having to worry that you're committing some sort of infidelity because you know your partner's at home waiting for you. There's no fear of being cheated on, or having to worry about someone else. You don't need your phone that much because you won't be calling him or texting him, and you're certainly able to cut down on expenses. You don't have to fight with anyone, or be forced to agree to anything. And you will learn to enjoy everything about yourself. I haven't been single for the longest time until I got married. Now that I'm married, i know i can never go back to being single. But one thing that I'm very thankful about my husband is that I can do almost anything (minus the flirting, the dating, and anything which includes another guy and some non-friendly gestures) just like I was single. :-)

i rather stay single because i want when i enter into a relationship it is for a lifetime commitment and i am the perfect man for the woman that i love. personally, my opinion when young people enter into a relationship is that they want some sort of enjoyment rather love itself as if they are taking love so lightly. love is a bilateral and mutual relationship both should treat the other one with care

I always been single and loved it. But then when u getting older u do gonna miss being with someone u can spend time with esp if u dont have much famely and no brothers and sisters. Thats why i got a bf now, we dont live together and im not up for that for a long time yet but its good to have someone so you not alone. Altough i must say i will never get married because a part of me still likes to be free

There is something to say about having someone to share life with. Not just being there, but Being there for your partner. Trusting enough to talk about anything and everything, share stupid moments to monumental ones. Someone that will listen and actually hear what your saying. Those are what I thought I had a few times. I am single now, I have not the ambition to even date anyone. I just feel that I make the wrong choices and I end up getting hurt. I sit here and wonder if there is such a person for myself to be able to just sit with, be with, enjoy life with. Argue with to understand our own differences and able to respect each for that. For some, they find that and last a life time together, like my grandparents, my grandmother was 14 when she married my grandfather and was with him until she passed at 65. They were about 15 years apart, but you couldn't tell it. I loved being with them. I have met other couples like that, younger ones, that you just know, they will be together forever.. Myself well, the future is ahead, I leave that to God's hands.

As far as I am concerned, I think I would rather be in a relationship ,which can me a lot of comfort and happiness.I just want to have a someone to be with ,and enjoy the happy time with her. If I am in alone, I think I will get annpying sometimes. I do not want the feeling happens to me.So I think a relationship with do.

There are already a lot of people especially women who prefers to be single these days. They dont wanna be attached to somebody and they are enjoying their lives as single ladies. There are advantages I think cause there are so many people who wanted to enjoy their lives cause they dont have to think about other people but themselves. My sister is still single and she is enjoying her life a lot. She's got a lot of money and she has so many savings. Sometimes I think she never worries at all.

I've almost thought about just being single maybe.. I don't want to cling on someone that I'm not self-assured. I don't wanna be wasted. I'm just enjoying my freedom now, I got time for myself but in a certain time or in some ways that you need someone to express your feelings. Yeah, in other way around its a good thing if you are in a relationship 'cause its more inspiring but hope not distracting. So better choose the one you wanna be with. The one will uplift you along the way, not to turn you down, right? But if you really want an exciting, fun just go on take a bite. It depends upon one's decision what he/she wanna be.

For me it is absolutely being single.It has so much freedom but it kinda get lonely sometimes but you should have some girls around too.Its fun to be in a relationship too but i prefer to be single.

Yes thats true some other people just like to be in a relationship for companionship not yet for the real deal .But hey just as the other topics and all it still depends on everybody's decision and beliefs.In my point i would rather be in a relationship,i think life is much more meaningful if you have someone to share it with. I dont havea anything against single guys and girls out there for i dont know the reason why they are single but having someone to share every smile every laughter and even tears is much more exciting and fun too. Have a great day!
