I prefer being in relationship. Being single, is not that enjoyable. I have friends but i cant share something more personal to them... I think its better to share my prob to someone who is always support me, in this case is my boyfriend.

i think both have the advantages anbd disadvantages of its own. in relationship you may share your sadness and hapiness with some, but there are certain problems also,. people get hurt also in relationship. in single case you can enjoy the freedom.

Of course, I can't be single. I am the person who fell inlove every once in a while until I got married. If I had not married my husband, I would have met someone else that I would have married instead. I am a secretive person but I feel it's also good to have one person whom I share my secrets and intimate moments with.

I would have to say that I really like being in a relationship. I would not like being single again. It is very lonesome. I have been married for almost 16 years now. I like having someone to spend my spare time and my life with. It is also nice to have a friend every day to talk with also.

I prefer being in a relationship. I love having someone to share my life with. I couldn't imagine life without my husband now that I have found him!!

Both have its benefits, as far as i know. I liked being single, as i didnt have to go through so much of heart-break, and pain. But then again being single would be lonely and always wonder why am i not in a relation?

Good discussion point. Today it's amazing to me how many people do not stay together for any reason. Gone are the days when you could make a life with a person. Now, almost everyone goes from person to person. It's weird. I was in a relationship that was (I sounded like you then); that I thought would go on forever. We did everything that one is supposed to do to keep it great; but we ended up realizing that we were miserable. We loved one another; but we had become very different people. He liked to party and I preferred to stay at home and watch the sunset and read or write. We still had some things in common like video gaming; but it wasn't near enough to keep it alive. So, to answer your question: It would be wonderful to be in a relationship long term; but I tend to only stay in it if we are both really getting something good from it. I have absolutely no issue with being "lonely". I have a blast with my friends and any partner in life will be one that matches my life and I them. =^-^=

yes its right, it is better to have relationship, and if you find someone fit with you, you can marry him. i am in good relationship today, the only problem is money. we need to work hard to earn it.

Be in a healthy relationship is great! first it gives you a sense of love, it makes you feel important. I'd prefer to be in a relationship than be single
