I personally think it's Okay to be single and no need to get married if you can't handle it because it's definitely boring relationships after some time when charms ends. So why not we should try another relationship rather than committed to someone without charm.

This is not a question about what is better. It is a question about what is better for each of us.

It's not that one can't handle it. It is more whether they want to or not. It's a choice not preference.

Relationships take work, you can't sit back and expect the "attraction" to just be there naturally forever. Just like any good thing, you get out of it what you put into it.

@Daljinder Good for you DJ! Make sure you find a guy who is going to invest in you 100%. You deserve nothing less.

@moffittjc That's true! That is why I am single at the moment. Because I give my 100 % in relationship and expect the same or else I don't waste my time on someone who won't be my equal partner.

More importantly, I think the key is not to attach your happiness to anyone whether single or married so either way you remain happy

I'm right,
You're cool,
Let no one say otherwise
Life is too short to rule,
So go on take a bite.

for me.. as i have never experience yet to be married.. of course it's ok to be single.. no hassle, no headache, no to someone i will think off all the time, no commitment.. and i can decide on my own without asking for permission of my husband to be... that's as for now that i'm not yet ready to be attach forever.. but i know in the future i still want to be with someone, someone whom i really want to be with til my lifetime ends... of course it's a different feelings.. but still for now, i am not that brave to face that so for now i choose to be single..

Hello. This is rather subjective. Each person has his or her choice. But for me, I go for being married, simply because I love the person I am married to. Yeah, it gets boring sometimes but as they say love is a decision. So if the both cannot withstand each other anymore and feel like they are a burden to each other, better to let go.

We cant say its better to be single than be married nor being married is better than being single. I think it depends on your preferences and readiness on commiting yourself to a steady and lifelong relationship.if you're not yet ready for a serious commitment, then its better to be single but if you have found the one whom you can say the RIGHT one for you and whom you can commit your life, then being married is better....

@off124 when we commit ourselves to our partners, it comes with trust, and respect. If sometimes commitment can hurt as you have said, maybe because its a part of the gambles in life. Its either we win or we loose. And its up to us if we want to take the risk.

Some people are meant to be married and others are not.

I'm not sure what you mean by "charm". Next December I will have been married for 40 years. I am as shocked as anybody that I got that old. I said I'd stick by my love 40 years ago and he said the same so here we are, after a whole lot of hard times mixed in with better. We're still loyal to each other. We still have a good time together cause we're still friends. Plenty of charm in it for me.

@off124 Then there's plenty of charm over here. Going on forty years and my hubby still watches out for me; I find it very loving and sweet that he always asks if there are things need doing like carrying heavy dog food bags or chicken chow bags- always. He knows its hard for me to do that and he keeps my welfare in mind.

Relationships have to be build up especially in marriage. That's what we Indian think.

@off124 Yes, but there has to be cooperation from both partners.

I wanted to get married so I could have children and give them a better life than I had. It did not turn out right and had a miscarriage and the wrong person I married so I raised animals instead of children. What is said that in Judaism it is important to have children but I was not lucky to have them. So, I raised animals and I love my animals but would have loved to have children along with my animals. My marriage was so bad that I decided I did not want to ever get married again.

Welcome to mylot ! I respect your thought . At any given time, my choice would be the exciting, the scary, the spectacular, the unpredictable roller coaster ride we call i.e marriage.With all its constraints, with all its limitations, in all its splendor, I will never fear to say, " I do".

This is a very big truth which many people dont look at as they find it quite painful. Its sometimes quite boring to be someone and this is applicable especially on those guys who prefer to socialise less.

You don't get married "because it's fun to spend time together;" you get married because your life is too complicated to handle all-by-yourself.
And yes, sometimes it is fun for you & your spouse to 'spend time together'; but that's not "the reason you get married."
The Bible puts it this way: the man 'tried all the others' and realized that the woman was "a part of him." (Granted, she was the only other human he'd ever met) And they remained together (and "the wedding at the beginning of the marriage" is just a way of publicly declaring that you are no longer 'just an individual, but now also devoted to your spouse').

When you feel that you are mature enough, it is much better to be married to a person who loves you and whom you love. When you are young, it is better to be in a living reltionship, but not single... (Just my opinion)

If you are really meant for each other, then get married.
