Who is currently not in a relationship? Why not? Do you want to be? Who is currently in a relationship? Is it good, bad or somewhere in between? Why is it that way? Would you change anything? Thanks for sharing!

I am in a relationship. We got married last year on the famous 7-7-07. So we have been married a little over a year now. Its sometimes great and sometimes a nightmare. I can hardly believe I love this man so much I wouldnt know what to do without him and in the same way he makes me madder than anyone else has ever been able to do. We like any relationship have many ups and downs. I think our main problem or the one thing we definitely need to change is to stop arguing about the same things over and over. We have to start coming up with a solution when problems arise instead of sweeping them under the rug so to speak. We continue to push them to the side and then they come back in a few weeks and bite us in the butt. We both have things we have to work on but I think that is part of being in a relationship. Learning each others problems and growing together. Usually even if you find someone else the grass isnt much greener on the other side.

Yeah the grass is rarely greener. If you keep arguing about the same things, maybe you aren't really "hearing" each other? You might want to have him explain why something he's arguing about is so important to him, and vice versa. When you're both calm, of course!

Its not that we definitely know where each other stands but we never come to an agreement on the problems. I know we are going to have to either learn to agree or agree to disagree.

I've been divorced from my two daughters father for 17 years. I've been in a seven year relationship and a three year break and a two year relationship after that. Currently after another three years I am happily single and loving it. Don't have time to share with anyone else. What little time I do have for myself, I want for myself!

being alone can be a good thing... My husband threw a quote at me a while back, supposedly from Marilyn Monroe, that it was better to be alone than to stay with somebody you don't love. I would say the same is true for a relationship where you're not treated properly.

I am not in a relationship, because I don't make a good partner. I have too many unresolved issues from other relationships to be in one now. It wouldn't be fair to anyone I was with. I just ended a relationship and I ended up hurting that person very badly because I wasn't ready to be committed in the way that he wanted. Not to say I cheated, I don't mean that, I just couldn't love the way he loved me.

Sorry to hear that but better to end it sooner rather than later, I guess.

That's great, just keep open communication and work any problems before they become real issues and you'll be fine! Congratulations.

Yep, Im currently in a a relationship and have been for four years. If I could change anything I would have probably wanted to change the very beginning of our relationship because it started out really rocky and pretty horrible in some aspects. But If I really think back to it my partner and I wouldn't be as close as we are now if that wouldn't have happened. Sometimes things happen for a reason and even though what happened was bad it still brought us closer together. My partner is a wonderful person and we're very happy now and I hope it lasts too. I love her with everything I have.

That's great. If you learn to deal with the tough things early on, I bet it makes the relationship stronger!
