Which is you think is better? Have you think that being a single or alone is better that being couple? Or really opposite of this? Which is suitable? Sometime being alone make me cool, focus and cope in any matter. My heart and mind is calm and peace, what you think ?

Sometimes I think it is better to be single when things gone wrong, but it makes me feel coward lol. I prefer to be in relationship, I feel more good and have inspiration each day, despite for the expected pain and fights. Which I think its normal.

It all depends on the person I guess, being single has its good points so long as you have plenty of friends around you, but it can be nice being in a relationship, always having someone there but it is nice to know also being single you are free to always meet someone knew, so good and bad in both.

It depends on your status, you are happy being single and avoid getting into a serious relationship you'll be fine and you would not worry about dates and appointments. If you're in a relationship you are bound to commit to some appointments, visit to your significant other's family and friends, spending your time with her, doing activities with her by your side and more.

If you haven't fallen in love it is really easy to say that it is better to be alone. But then when you have a partner already then most of the time you would want to go out with your partner and have date with him.

being alone is boring having someone being in a relationship is a good thing as long as both also have some alone time separate hobby's and such.

I believe that it's nice to be apart of a couple as well as having time to do our own thing alone. Allot of times when people get together and become a couple they lose sight of themselves although it may not be detrimental in the beginning in time one or both begin to feel trapped, like they need space and if they aren't good with communication it builds up and can cause some serious issues between the couple.
It's always good for people to have their own hobbies and interests./

depends on the situation you are in.. of course it is always better to have someone with you and be happy with the person... and of course you should also consider people who would like to remain single as well. they can be happy with the singlehood... but others just can't live being single...

I prefer to be in a relationship. When I was younger I was single and I was very happy that way. I travelled a lot and I worked abroad, and I was able to make my own decisions about everything. I loved the freedom that I had and I didn't miss a longterm relationship. Today my situation is different. I am married and my husband and I are very happy together. I don't miss my single life at all, and I don't feel like going back to that time.
I have friends who are still single and very happy that way, and relationships aren't the right choice for everyone. I think that there are advantages about both kinds lifestyles and everyone has to make their own decision and find the thing that is right for them.

I do like being single but I also like being in a relationship.
I like my independence and not having anyone to answer to at the end of the day but there are moments when you just want to have someone with you. Someone to hold your hand when you are having a bad day and tell you that everything will be ok.

For me, it's Good to be relaxable if i am alone. But in hole life it means it's not Good. Being single or with a mate is depends upon our mindset only. If we are sad feel uneasy then we like alone is Good and Cool. If we happy then we want with the Group it's the Common fact for the Human.

I think that each one of these options have their benefits. When a person is single they have more freedoms. They are able to come and go as they please and really have their own way of doing things. And being in a relationship allows a person to be able to share their life with someone else and vice versa. But it is a good idea to way what a person wants before making any haste or major decisions. It's easier to be single and enjoy the freedom it affords than to be in a relationship and wish you were single.

In most cases, when a person is lonely, she or he will long for a companion. Then, when a companion is found, there will be that 'lovey-dovey' phase which is very exciting for lovers of any age. Young and old couples who are very much in love will always want to see each other and do things together. But this lover-dovey phase will be over in no time and when it's cooled down, it's normal to hear couples fighting all the time. This is the reality of life. The only difference between couples who fight is the intensity of the fight. Couples who fight continuously, are selfish and always determine to get his/ her own way will then start to talk about 'better to be alone', 'let's separate/ divorce'...etc. There will be a way out for them if they reflect their life, keep themselves humble and forgiving. But for those couples who are ONLY determine to 'win' not caring about the consequences of their words and actions have already set the 'obvious' path for their relationship...We all have a choice and I think single or married, both status are acceptable because each one has his/ her own responsibilities or paths that have been set by God.

vitorkrish: I think that if you are happy being alone, then that is really good for you. I have been single and am now married. I find that as long as I am content with myself, then I can be content in either situation. I rather love being married, as God has sent me a wonderful man.
You have to follow your heart and be happy with who you are. If being in a relationship upsets your peace and messes with your mind, then, you might consider staying single.
