Being single: A lot better than some people make it out to be?

having true friends is underrated in life and finding "the one" is overrated.

I go through periods where I feel lonely and would like to be in a relationship and other times when I really don't care. At present I am in the I don't care period. I guess there are advantages and disadvantages to both. When I see problems in some peoples relationships I think to myself I am really glad I am not in a relationship but when I see it working for some where there is trust, respect and good communication I think to myself I wouldn't mind that. I just trust in God that if he wants me to meet someone somehow he will cause our paths to meet. Till then I just get on with things.

There is no "We" in 'single'.

There is no "I" in 'couple'.

Take your pic.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think being in a relationship or being married is a bad thing. But some people think being single is like a curse or something. Like you must be lonely or sad if you don't have someone in your life.


Personally, I enjoy being single. I enjoy being alone and knowing I can do whatever I want, whenever I want. I also feel it's less complication and headaches because, as is with just about any relationship, no matter how good it is, you're going to have your moments, right? It won't be smooth sailing all the time, that's for sure.


And (if you're lucky) you'll have friends to enrich your life and keep you from getting too lonely. Perhaps having true friends is underrated in life and finding "the one" is overrated.


Like I said, there's nothing wrong if you do have someone. But being single is....fun. At least to me. It's not a bad thing like some people make it out to be. At least not in my opinion.


For those who are single here, how do you feel about it? Do you enjoy it? Or are you unhappy being single? Please feel free to share your thoughts and feelings. I won't judge you for it.

I have become used to being single.. When i was a teenager i was very depressed about being single but in my mid 20's i accepted it and the stress and depression just melted away.. Now i live without any of that worry and stress.. Indeed now i get stressed out if a woman starts to show interest in me.. I just don't want to deal with walking through the mine field of making a woman know that you are not interested in that kind of relationship.. Some woman get very upset when they feel they have been rejected..

Maybe if a young lady has shown interest in me when i was 21 then i would be married now and would have lived a totally different life.. But as the old saying goes ""Strike when the iron is hot"" No woman struck when i was hot and so when that heat dissipated no woman could forge me into a husband anymore..

I am at peace now living my life alone because i know with Jesus i am never alone..
