hello friends, there are people in this world who are single. Each and everyone wish to have a person beside us who can understand and share our feelings. But when we dont have sucha a person with us we often feel that we are left out or odd one out. We feel that we are left alone and there is no one to care about us. But few people are not like that, they enjoy being single. They think if they fail to be single then they cant enjoy their life as how they wish. They are not cared for people or for their opoinins and they absolutely enjoy being single. So now tell me friends are you worried being single? Or do u enjoy to be single in your life?

I have to admit - I'm worried to be single for the rest of my life. I'm worried that I just WON'T find anyone, and will end up alone, and miss out on getting married, having kids, and so on. Right now, I'm going to college full-time, have a part-time job, volunteer on the weekends, have an OK social life - I feel like having a long-term relationship would totally slow me down and I probably just wouldn't have TIME for it.

Well I guess its different strokes for different people. I think its just how we think of ourselves that reflects about our true selves. I do believe that when you are alon and is seeking for a partner you should not worry about not getting one but start thinking that you will get it even if that is not yet around. Worry won't help you at all and would not bring any good to you in the end. So right now if you are single and is not happy you should do something but do not worry if it does not happen soon just continue on and halfway along your trip it might just happen.

not really. i would be happy and in peace single, then miserable, married and with kids for the hell of it, and probably end of in divorce and single parent. i am not in love with anyone, so why would i want to get married. for the hell of it? i dont think so. that is pathetic.

I am not single. I have the most loving and wonderful man I have ever met who is always by my side. I will however say that there were times when I was single that I almost completely gave up on men and figured I'd never find that one person to share my life with. I got to the point where it didn't really bother me being single. I just kind of thought of it as the only person I could really trust in my life was myself. But now, I have been proven wrong and I am glad. I truly believe there is someone out there for everyone, as long as they don't give up and keep an open mind.

i reached that point of my life that i am single and alone... i broke up with my 3 yrs relationship and i dont want to enter in a new relationship directly.. but sad to say it reach 3 yr for me to become a single and i dont like the feeling. i wanna have someone to share with. and i can really say im in a bad mood always during those days.dont like to hang out adn left like i dont belong.. im not geyying any younger so i worried more. as my age increases my worries increase also. just really afraid to be alone forever. good thing God gave me a guy that i have been praying for, its like an answered prayer. now, im not worried antmore and happy to belong with someone else.

I just love being single but i don't mind if i get someone to make me double..lol...:D...But to be honest i prefer to be single till i get married because i think having a gf is a reason to be worried all the time. One will spend most of his time thinking about his beloved gf and won't be be able to make use of the most valuable time.

It seems to me that you only worry because you are being pressured into getting hitched by your parents. Often when others try to push their ideas and ideals onto us we feel trapped and cannot escape out of fear that they might be right.

I love to have someone who will be there beside me. It is good to know that someone cares for you and know who you are as much as you know yourself and can share anything with.

I married on my late twenty's. But before that I was already worried and finally gave up. Finding my husband and getting married was instant. All my worries were gone right there and then. Funny but it is true.

Well I feel that theres nothing wrong with being single, but someday I would love to share my life with someone special, but my life dosent revolve around having a man in my life, its just the natural progression in life and human nature to want to have someone to share things with and grow old with.

Hi jasmine, i'm single now and have been for 5 plus years. I'm a little worried about being single because i wonder if i could actually be in a relationship with someone for the long term without giving up half way. I tend to slightly back away when i found characteristics i don't like from the guy. And this backing away prevents me from having a relationship or break up one. I should probably be more open about things and such heh. I think it depends what type of mood you're having now to enjoy either being single or in a relationship. Right now i feel i want to share what i experience with that special someone, and have some support.

honestly I'm joyfully single, enjoying every waking moment of my life being a single, even if sometimes I feel the pressure...still, I will not worry because I believe that there is a time for everything and good things happen for those who wait patiently for the right one. In desperate times I feel that I'm alone, I just keep my faith and focus on the brighter side of life. (^_^)

Hello Ms. Jasmine! I would like to begin by straightaway telling you that NO, I AM NOT WORRIED FOR BEING A SINGLE. I have seen people go in and out of relationships, with broken hearts and tears in their eyes. Not to suggest that it is bad to get into a relationship but I never felt the desperation to get into one. In fact, if you have a right combination of friends, you would never feel the need for that "someone" to stand beside you, because you will have a lot many people :)

Being single is not always great I know. Sometimes I miss to have someone beside me. And you know, so many people appeared wanting to be with me and I said no cause to be with someone just not to be alone is not what I want for me. It has to be something really special or I prefer to stay as I am: single. We never know tomorrow. Maybe tomorrow can bring the perfect person. If not I am ok being single.

Sometime i m worried about being single, this year my age will be 29 and i m still single, no BF since last year. I had two ex bf but all of tem back off since my parents disagreed with their marriage proposal. So now i m single. I wish i can settle down soon , no need to work hard like at present, financially stable, and most important thing is i can always share about everything. But being single also has its own advantage, i can go anywhere i want without thinking much of family. No need to wake up in morning to prepare breakfast ....and can do anything i wish to do

Yes. Sinle is having lot of benefits as well as some losses. If you are a single, you can go anywhere, can talk with anybody, can do anything as per your wish without restriction. If you are not single or married means you have to be controlled by your partner. Lot of restrictions come into picture.

Having a patner is always good especially for ladies. Most importantly because they don't have much heart like we men. So they need someone to encourage them, comfort then and guide them. I have once loved a lady befor and i can say out of experiencs that: Dating a lady or falling in love with a lady does not benefit a guy much. It is actually a bondage. Once you start dating you pick up more responsibility. You'll have to encourage yourself and the lady at thesame time. Even when you feel pain you've got to hide it for your girl's sake. You'll start to make her happy , do the things she like and impress her in the best way you. You'll waste money time emotions and the rest what makes lady lonely is when they have problem they can't solve Or they are afraid of something Or they need romance or more. That is when they think they need a shoulder. What ladies need is someone that can handle there problems for them. So when a guy dates He is on the loosing side and the lady on the gaining side. I AM SINGLE AND I AM NOT REGRETING IT AND I AM NOT PLANNING TO GO INTO ANY RELATIONSHIP FOR A LONG TIME - IF NOT FOR KIDS I WOULDN'T MARRY AT ALL. I AM FREE!!! AND I DON'T WANT HOOKS ON MY NECK ANYMORE. So ladies and gentle men it is good to be single(especially for guy). DON'T BECOME A SLAVE IN THE NAME OF LOVE!!!! Be responsible for ur problems and yours alone. Enjoy your achievement alone and give to those u feel like giing it to. There is nothin to be lonely about. SINCE SHE LEFT ME AND I REALLIZE THE TRUTH I HAVE NEVER FELT LONELY. I AM ALWAYS HAPPY THAT I AM FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

May be sometimes I am worried, why am I single, actually I have my own reasons to be single. But sometimes when I am in trouble or something that I can't share with the friends. But this matters only when you are in college, because most of around us are not single, they spend there each and every moment together. And by the way according to indian traditions in next two or three years I am going to be marries. So no worries.
