In a relationship definitely. Two are better than one! They can warm each other, pull one another out of a pit, there to cry and laugh with you and many more stuff.

I prefer to have a relationship. Although sometimes it will be sad when both of you have some disagreements and argues. But when you are alone, sometimes you need someone to share with you. Especially in some important days like Valentine's Day. You will feel upset when you see others have good time with their partners.

Both have pros and cons. I was single for many many years and thought it was just great. i got to consider only myself and do whatever I felt like at any time. Now I am in a relationship, and it is probably the best for me now. or else I would be very lonely. I am now leading quite an isolated life, and it is good to know someone will be coming home to me every day. people should not be completely by themselves.

I am a loner, too. I don't think I would want to stop myself in the middle of something I was doing to attend to someone else's needs.

I just don't have the time. Look at how long it has taken me to respond to you. I have a crazy, nutty schedule. I would never be able to actually have a relationship at this point in my life. Ainge

I also prefer to be in a relationship.Success of a marriage life depends on getting a good partner.Understanding and respecting each other is the success of the marriage life.

I don't really mind as I think there are something to enjoy in both stages. I enjoy the freedom and hassle-free status when I am single. When I am not in love, don't think about anyone and don't miss anyone, my emotions are really stable and I really enjoy that. I tend to focus more on myself when I am single. When I am in a relationship, there is someone there for you no matter what and I really enjoy that feeling. So, I really don't mind and don't have a preference!

Single, single, and definitely single. Why? That's because I love my own company so much. I think I am the best, the most beautiful, the most sweetest, most loving, most intelligent person in the whole world. Now, what partner will ever have such a high opinion of me? The ones I had in the past were too critical. They claimed that something was wrong either with my face or my mind. LOLS. All that has changed now. Life is great as a single. I have my computer and my writing; my animals and my garden, my music and my movies, my books and lots and lots of things. Never felt the need for a human being any time in my life. They are welcome to be my friends if they wish. But should they wish to leave, I will be the last person to stop them. Thanks for this discussion. Cheers and happy mylotting.

i prefer to be in a relationship, to have someone beside me, a shoulder to cry on and for me to share my ups and downs with. but i guess being single and in a relationship has its own pros and cons. depends on how you deal with it to make the best of out both :)

I prefer to be in a relationship. Sure being single has its advantages, but it is only fun being single for a month or so then I think the novelty wears off. I love being in a relationship, one of the main reasons is love. Love can really make your world feel a whole lot better. I also like coming home each day from work and having someone to share my day with. It is good to have someone to cuddle and laugh with. So what do you prefer, to be single or in a relationship?

I prefer to be in a relationship. It is so lonesome without someone to sepnd your life with. I have been married for almost 13 years and I am used to being with someone daily.

i love to be in a relationship. it was really nice that you have someone beside you who can cry laugh and be there always. it was really a good way to reflect on yourself or attitude towards other people. i love being in a relationship although it cause pain every now and then. at least you still learned something. win-win situation right?
