Who are those people who told you that? They are so mean. Just remember that your happiness does not depend on anything or anyone, your happiness comes from you alone. Ignore those people who puts you down, they don't deserve any attention at all, okay! Have a nice day!

This is the answer: the big difference between them and you is that you only need yourself to be happy. And only if you can be happy alone you can be happy with someone else. You are born alone and you will leave this world alone as well. If you need someone to make you feel complete, to make you happy, it's a burden. BTW there are plenty of relationships/people who ar not happy at all. They just see a relationship as something that should be otherwise you are weird no matter if it's a bad relationship or not. BTW the biggest part of the population in this world is single!

Absolutely right! I sometimes want to tell them the most miserable person I have are those who were in a relationship. But I just shrugged off most of the time. :)

Being single is a choice on my own opinion.No one will ever believe you that you are happy being single and who cares right?I have seen girls and boys who are in a relationship but they are not that happy I am sure of that.Why?Because of arguments and misunderstandings with their partners ., because of breaking-up and heartaches.Just think of it this way, you will not experience those arguments, misunderstandings and heartaches if you're single right?So who says that being single is lonely?You can actually hear those comments said by people who are afraid to be alone.,afraid of not having a boyfriend or a girlfriend by their side.You can still be happy and single if you are with your family,friends, co workers etc.

tell them that being single doesn't mean that you're alone. you friends and family. tell them you are contented with your life and if someone comes into your life you are willing to make some adjustments.

Oh sorry. You know me better than I do. I didn't even realize how unhappy I was. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go do something I enjoy, and try and remind myself that I'm not happy. Catch you later!

Those people who said that your not "happy" are those who can't stand without a partner, they are dependent to their partners.Once they broke up, they become insane. Their life is miserable because they really don't know what true happiness is. If their mindset are always like that, later on unconscious depression occur. They must know that happiness exist everyday and everywhere, and they must appreciate even the smallest things that we usually ignore... because that "small" thing gives the biggest joy if we only appreciate it.

Being single doesn't mean being lonely. One can still be happy despite being single because we should not make ourselves stuck in a corner and wait for someone to swept us off our feet. A single man or a woman can do other things beside sulk for being alone. There is life even if you are alone. People around you is enough to make you happy. Just being contented with the kind if life that you have should make you happy.
