How is life being single??

i don't think being single is lonely. it just depends on how you live your life. i have a cousin, she's now 40 yrs old, and still single. i don't think she'll ever marry, but i can see that she's not lonely. she have lots of friends, and since she has no obligations, her income will go all to herself. she often travels abroad and just tour around different places. so i guess being single is not that bad at all. it'll all depend on you.

welll... i guess it would be ablast to be single while u r young...at 21 years i am having fun by being single... i am not answerable to anyone and tht feeling is great... and i dont wanna change anythng od it... but i also happen to be sensible... the problem of being single arises when he reach middle-age...seeing all our married pal might at tht age make us sad.. and at the time we reach old age, we will be all alone and no one wants to be with a old person... but if we were married we wud have had a spouse to spend the rest of our lives with and never be alone!

I despise being single. All my family and friends are in relationships, getting married, having kids. It makes me so sick to my stomach. Every time I hear somebody I know is getting married or got pregnant, I sit in my apartment and get really depressed. I am a hopeless romantic, and I know my dream girl is out there somewhere, but it is discouraging being alone. It is starting to get worse, because Christmas is coming, and I have no one to spend it with, and of course New Year's.

I feel being single is different from being lonely. So if you are open minded person and accept short term relationships then it is fine. But people who thrive for long term relationships cannot stay single as they might feel lonely even having a lot of friends around. So choose your paths well thought.

I like the freedom of being single, but I get really lonely sometimes. It's a never ending battle with me. I'm usually independent but if I don't have someone around me I feel inadequate. It may not be a partner and could just be a friend. I'm ok being single as long as I have heaps of friends. But as you grow older it is the expectation to get married and its hard when you see all your friends couple off. Which is where I am at the moment.

i still young but i cant see myself single for the rest of my life.. huh.. i want to have a family and someone who will be there up to my last breathe.. I want to be comforted and have someone to listen to. But for teenagers somehow i prefer to be single at once or a little period of confusing relationships.. I want to be alone and enjoy life. I want to live sometimes without gf who will follow yor stuffs and hang outs.. huh! I somehow hate commitments...

Being single for the rest of your life? Kinda unbelievable. But being single is cool not worrying about obligation.

I am single and i have been single for over three years and i do not mind it all to be completely honest. I have two beautiful little girls and i keep my niece and they occupy my time just fine. I do want to meet the man that i will decide to marry someday but who knows when that will happen but in the meantime i am perfectly fine being single!

I think single life is more comfortable for the people. Coz he can do anything for his responsible life.

I'm not single, so I may not be the best person to say this, but here's my take on singlehood. Singlehood is a choice, a choice one makes not to be with a partner. It will also be your choice if you will feel down or lonely when you are home alone. Sometimes, honestly speaking, I love my husband to pieces but sometimes, just sometimes, I wish I was alone. I realize most of us would want to share our lives with another. But it doesn't necessarily mean having someone beside you in bed. You can be single but not alone or lonely. As you said you have friends. The only gauge you have to consider is yourself. Are you happy, content with the life you made? then it's ok. You might find other ways to fulfill yourself rather than have a partner. I mean get involved with community work, volunteer for a worthy cause. Or pursue a life long dream. Something like that. Some people call it blessed singleness.. think about it... they don't call it blessed for no reason. I guess some people are not meant to be with someone else I know many people who's lives are complete even though they are single. It's a choice they make and they're happy with it. They have their family, friends, work and other stuff that make their lives worth living

i think being happy is a choice and not a state in life. being happy is being contented with where and what you have. i tought ill be a single coz i wanted to. i havent had a relationship and dont have any bad experiences, i just like where i am, having my own time. im happy with my friends, and family and didnt feel the need to have someone. now that i have a partner, i cannot say that im happier or less happy, is just that im contented with him. im happy without him, and still happy having him. my point is that, if you let yourself to look on things that you dont have, that will make you feel lacking and lonely. being single is not bad or lonely.

I don't won't to be single... my aunt has been single for decades... she doesn't want to cook for a man, or clean up after them... I think it is because a man malested her daughter (her husband)

In one word.. it is BLISS. enjoy as much a su can when u r single, as for most of us it will be only the first 20-27 years that they are going to be single. Then, you would be caught in the webs of familyhodd whether you like it or not. So peopel say loudly and proudly "I AM STILL SINGLE" :-)

well if i answer I never want to get married, does that answer to your question? I love being single;)

My greatest fear in the life could be to be alone for the rest of my life! I want to have a family in the future. I have tried to be alone for years and years (even if I am still a boy and I live with my family) and it's thirsty! I think it would be so thirsty to come back at home and find none to talk with...none to love. I think that people saying it's great to remain single is only thinking in the sort time...but a whole life is very difficult to live alone! Think when you get older and older....and none is near you to comfort and love you. I think life has no sense if you are alone!

I am in my 40s and I am single. I had relationships in the past but never got married. In fact, I felt emotionally burdened when I was with a guy. Maybe it's my personality, I try to always please other people and that stresses me up alot. At the end of the day, I think being single frees me from alot of unnecessary problems that are related to being in a relationship. If I am lonely, it is up to me to join social gatherings like the church or community clubs and sign up for courses which are of interest to me. It doesn't mean that if I get married, I will be happier or less lonely.

It's fun, really! I get to meet my friends whenever I want and I now do things I can't do when I'm committed. I really enjoyed the single life but sometimes, it;s saddening. Coz you long for someone who would say "iloveyou" to and someone who would check on you. But if I were to choose, i want to be committed and have a stable relationship than being single for the rest of my life.

I would NEVER want to be single forever. Sure I love alone time, but not FOREVER alone. Hello! I want a husband, and children. I hate being single at times. Well not now. Now I am just not in the ability to have a boyfriend anyways. I need to get my career going and figure out stuff. But within a good year or so I will be ready! And then I want a boyfriend, turn into husband. I want it ALL. And it will and must include marriage! :))

Im in my late 20s and never had an intimate relationship with a girl. I didnt want to be single, its just I rather not have a girl just for the sake of the fear of loneliness. I want it to be because of love. I did find THE GIRL, she simple just not want me. being single for me is a way of life. it have it pros and cons. Remember this my friend, yes im alone but not lonely. And I knew lots of people in a relationship but its them who are lonely. But please dont plan it. If that perfect match of yours did pass your way. give your every best effort to at least for him or her to look on your direction :)

hey just think how a person can be able to remain single without any other person. its really boring man. and according to me no one can be able to lead their life without any other person. there should be someone to share our feelings na? without any patner life is really boring.
