I think the one advantage of being a single is that I am free from all the personality nuisance of the other person. I wouldn't want to be argued at and worst of all corrected if I'm already correct. I am the man and its my responsibility to give all the woman her needs and that is nearly slavery in itself that's why it is markedly better to remain single than to jump in a very deep canyon when you know you can't survive the fall..

I love being single. I come and go as I please; I'm accountable to no one. I go where and when I want. I do what I want. I do it how I want it. The only down side; the middle of my upper back itches sometimes and there's no one to scratch it.

being single sometimes is fun but sometime is not.. i cant fool myself that deep inside my heart i really wanna have girlfriend. but i dont struggle to do that.. because im afraid that someday i can not deal with all of my girlfriend's asking. that is why. and yet, im type of lazy people. so cant imagine when my gf want me to fetch her up or whtaever she want me to do

I'm not happy but I'm contented being single as of now. Being single makes me contented because I love it and you're free to do whatever you want and no limitations if you want to go out. The downside of being single is when you want someone just to hold your hand and be with you whenever you want to is not just there. The absence sometimes of having a companion.

I was happy when I was single. I enjoyed the time by having good time with my friends. I used to go out for shopping, dinner, beach, zoo, park, etc. with my friends. I slept whenever I wanted and went out for walk irrespective of the time. Everything appeared beautiful for me. But, when the time came, I realized that I need to get married and found the guy of my dreams.

Honestly, I am not happy being single and I am so tired to pretend it is alright to remain single. I mean I want to get married and build my own family but it felt as though I am always cheated by circumstances and refused to grant my wishes. I am super tired of this singlehood stage, I did all style of prayers but to no avail, I don't know what to do anymore!

First of all, talking about you , you can't spend single life. In your opinion you can't live single. Think deeply why do u need a partner. why? why man and women live together. what is love? The answer is inside your mind. you are using somebody for your satisfaction.Both are using each other. both are fulfilling theirs desire and their wants. But there are many true circumstances and news we heard. I can't say there are many peoples who are satisfied and enjoyed being single. They are really free from all. They like to do whatever they like. Talking about past just talk about Buddha, He left his wife and son, he was happy being single. I know you can;'t even imagine being single, you are the very ordinary person. your body needs another body for pleasure and satisfaction. Ordinary mind think MAN AND WOMAN ARE MADE FOR EACH OTHER. only some little people spend single life...for real freedom. And for another goal. Their thinking is not like ours. They are genius. Thank you , Friend.

I am perfectly happy being single. I know that we need a partner in the future to share your worries and happiness. Right now I just need some time for myself and have some fun of what I have.

Being single is fun, especially that you don't have any commitment to others. You don't have to follow a single path because you're on your own. You're on your own. If ever you have problems, friends are there to help you. But being single has its downside. You can't call others yours because you don't have the right. But in my case, being single is enjoy and i love it!

They say everyone is born free in this world...but actually it comes with lot of ifs and buts ....let me not complicate this any further and say i'm happy being single and would love to continue for long time to come. i'm a very busy man and 24hours seems to be too short for my lifestyle. i work for 8hours and sleep for 8hours and in the remaining 8hours i probably would do the following movie/television - 2 hours internet/reading/blogging - 2 hours bathing/washing/getting ready - 2 hours going out shopping/phone - 2hours there are other things as well that i do which is not included ....ha ha ha ufffff.....well where is the time to have someone in your life...i tried to squeeze here and there for a relationship but just to get myself dumped. Technically no time..logically happy being single. Idea behind the whole thing is that at the end of the day you haven't accomplished anything but miss that something. still trying to figure out what that could be?? anyone got any clue here?
