Hi,mylotters,this discussion is not only for singles.Everyone has singlehood,I think.As being a single for years,I know clearly about the advantages and disadvantages of singles.First of all,singles have plenty of free time.Its both good and bad.On the one hand,you can do anything you like without asking for anyone's permission and its all your time.On the other hand,you are easy to get bored since you have no one special to share with happiness and sorrows in life.Well,I dont judge 'being single'a prompt 'good'or 'bad'.I love to know how you think about this issue.Or maybe you can tell me how you like being single/how you enjoyed your singlehood. Thanks for sharing.

Not many singles have a lot of free time. Yet if they choose to, they can have the time for everything. Singles doesn't need to think of how to deal with a husband, the kids, and all those stuff. Singles are free to go wherever they wish to go. Singles don't need to think of family problems because they don't have one. Singles, when they reach old age, starts to be problematic because they don't have someone to take care of them!lol

They also doesnt need to think of how to deal with wife, kids, and all those stuff.
I think being single is good, but you may feel lonely most of your free time.

hahah I agree! Currently I am single, but I have no plans of being single forever. I want to have a family ofcourse and have a loving and sweet husband.

Being single is just good when you are still quite young wherein you want to enjoy a lot of things.

When you are single, I believe you are surrounded by a dream that you never know who is just around the corner and is meant for you.

true, but not everyone has that dream of someone just around the corner..,.

Eversince I got single... I have a lot more time for myself. I have learned to pamper myself, which i failed to do in past relationships, because then... I needed to think about my partner before doing anything. Like, going to a spa is something I have to plan... because there's the two of us... now, I can do that anytime. Everything I earned is spent only for me and my son. I have learned to put priotrity for us alone.

The only off part about it... is my child, growing without a partner, unlike most children. As for me, it's kinda deppressing to see other families, with husbands/fathers who played their role well for the family. on the other hand... it's an added challenge for me. I want my son to see me as the coolest mother there is. I wish to play basketball with him, play in the rain, teach him plumbing...haha!!! literally, and hopefully... anything a father could teach him. Then again... I can never be a full pledge father and that sucks, just because I chose to be single. But we'll be fine, that's for sure.

For me What I just missed my single hood were the free time and gallivanting moments without anyone to ask permission with. Instantly I can go anytime, anywhere I would like with my friends..that's all..thanks

Hello friend,
I am single right now and I am proud to be one. There have been debates about it but then I am happy when I think about the fact that I do not have to answer anyone for anything and everything. I do not have to keep on calling someone every half an hour and then talk nonsense.

This morning i heard on the radio that two people were getting married only to reciece a better youth allowance. I believe it isn't right. Money shouldn't be the reason to get married.

Being single has its ups and downs,yes. But if you had made a choice or it was really fate for you being single, then it all depends on how to survive. One of the advantages of being single is that you got to hang out with your friends much often,You are not obliged to like communicate with him every now and then,etc. But of course there would be some disadvantages too like when its Valentine's Day and you got no one to spend a date with,something like that. But whether you're single or not, you are the only one responsible for your own happiness, not anyone else.

it is hard to be single. i don't see advantages but we have to be content and make of every situation. but it is not really being single that is the worse thing that can happen to any person. i think it all boils down to the attitude of a person. if a person knows how to live life in the best that he could then it is great.
