My_Other_I Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Has anyone found that he/she is happier being single? I had been dating this guy but I missed being single so much! I didn't miss it because I couldn't date others or have sex with others, he is not a control freak, but I just don't like being in a relationship with anyone. I missed being single so much it was like being single-sick! Now I have another wonderful friend in my life. Is there anyone who truly enjoys being single?

Aside from occasional bouts of loneliness, the answer is yes. As a singleton I have all kinds of options and freedom.
superconductor Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 I love being single. Yes, there is the occasional bit of loneliness, but that is more than offset by the freedom that singlehood provides. Nobody else to clean up after, either.
Marielle Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 I prefer to be single, because it causes less stress. Love can be very energy consuming, love is suffering sometimes, ancient proverbs state that. Being single is a state where you are not waiting nothing from a person...just chilling with friends. But at the same time I need to be in love, not with the wrong guy, that I usually end up with:o
Author My_Other_I Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 I just got back from a bar where my friend and I were observing people. So many desperate soul in one place, I thought it was pretty sad. Everyone was looking to hook up, making fools out of themselves. Desperation shows. I think today's world is a very sad place for too many people. The society doesn't recognize being single as being 'in'. I think we are in more than anyone thinks, as long we acknowledge our singlehood. I'm loving it! And more so with few beers in me.
allina Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 When I was 21, after getting out of a year and a half relationship I was single for over a year, I had a blast. I dated casually, met tons of people, made many new friends, it was a very fun year
rina_r Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 I can be happy single but it helps immensely to have someone whom you trust, can confide in and just share life moments.
Sally00 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 I have a boyfriend... but I was happy being single before him. It makes me sick how people feel like they HAVE to ALWAYS have somebody. It's pathetic lol. But I mean, if you're 30... I understand. I'm just talking about teenagers/young adults. I loved being single because there was NO DRAMA in my life and there were no jerks messing with my head. It was just me.
bluetuesday Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 It makes me sick how people feel like they HAVE to ALWAYS have somebody. It's pathetic lol. But I mean, if you're 30... I understand. why does it make any difference if you're 30? if you're saying age is the defining factor in whether it's ever okay to need to always have a partner, you're agreeing that what you call pathetic isn't pathetic once you're 'desperate'. trust me, desperation reeks the same at any age. yet you're saying it's okay to need to always have somebody under certain conditions. i disagree with this. needing to always have a partner is a psychological disorder regardless of your age or circumstances.
