what keeps you happy being a single?

I really enjoy my being single life. because it gives me an oppertunity to know myself. What I want in my future, how other things are important in my life...those different thoughts come in my mind. Without love also life is beautiful. I used to hang out with frnds. Used to call regularly my family.And yes....music my best friend. Everyday I used to go to office when I listen to a number of songs. And I believe that when love has to come...it will come automatically.

Good Day! Well the thing that makes me happy being single is that I don't have extra expenses. i don't need to load my cell phone everyday, I don't have to worry about the date, monthsary and at least I can sleep well every night without worrying and thinking what my partner is doing. I can go anywhere, be with someone else, make a lot of friends without someone telling me not to do those things so now I'm happy being single because I can do whatever I want and I'm not bothered now.

Hmmmm! I am single for 3 weeks now and I think the heartache is still there. Cannot think much or realize as early as this what keeps me happy to be single. Aside from the freedom I think, I can say that I have many reasons to feel happy even when I am not committed. I just hope this New Year will give me abundance in love and stability on all aspects.

I've had been in several relationships in my younger days and while it was nice being linked to a special someone and having a companion when I go out and do things it wasn't all bliss. It takes patience, a giving heart and even courage to share your life with someone. Also, it takes both parties who want a relationship to work otherwise it can be so tiring for the one who seems to be trying all the time while the other couldn't care less or giving very little to it. Also, I learnt that I can't change for that person cos it doesn't last and resentment builds up over time. Right now, I am at peace emotionally and mentally without being 'hooked' to anyone. I do what I want, when I want and how I want without having to think if the other party will approve. I just need good friends who rally around when I need a listening ear or if I need company going to places. I believe that unless my boyfriend or would be husband has to be my best friend who accepts me as I am and vice versa otherwise I rather be on my own.

Reminds me of lyrics from a Taylor Swift song that the kids play, "wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts"... Anyway, I think I could be content being single. At least it would be better than being with the wrong person.

I think in this day and age, I feel more at ease being just on my own. My problems and they can be many, will be someone else's problems and I'd really feel bad if someone has to deal with that. Therefore, it is just for the best these days for me if I would be single and I think that I will remain that way for the foreseeable future. Still who's to know what the future truly holds.

God created all creatures in pairs, so, I think there is no happiness when you live without love. However, if you are tired with love, to temporarily live without love is a wise choice because then you will be able to self-reflection

It really depends as after ending a relationship I found being alone was the best thing for me to do for a while. As it allowed me to find myself and what I wanted for me in the future. Some people make the mistake of taking on a new partner shortly after a break up to the point where as they do not see the signs of perhaps something not good for them. It certainly is nice to have a partner, but when that partner is not the right and or adequate one, it would be best to be alone.
