    I dunno, I think a relationship would be nice--but oh, the anxiety!

    Until I met and fell in love with my fiance, I would have said I was quite content being single. Now that I have her, and I know the absolute fulfillment of spending your life with someone who not only loves you , but accepts you, I couldn't imagine my life as a single person again.

    Single. I love being alone.

    I have only been in two relationships in my life. One was emotionally abusive and the other could've been the basis for the movie 'He's not that into you'. Even if I met someone who I really ticked with and didn't treat me like dirt, I'd still really crave my independence.

    I would like to be in a relationship but sadly that won't work anymore since I have recently broke up with him (who also happens to be my best friend).

    What's so strange is that when you have completely invested on someone and basically shared those experiences with that person such as your secrets, insecurities, your shared taste in music, your first kiss, first hug,etc. all of which can disappear without warning.

    I would definitely prefer to have a partner(still can't bring myself to say boyfriend). I can't say how it would be since I've never been in a relationship before, but if the relationship is formed from love and not sexually then I'm sure I'll enjoy it, a lot! :grin:

    Short answer: single.

    Longer answer: I've never been in a relationship that hasn't been full of drama and heartache. And I'm at a point in my life where I sorta need to focus on my own life, I don't think I would be a very attentive girlfriend. So, single.

    I would love to say that I prefer to be in a relationship but because I haven't been in one, I would gladly choose being single instead. It does get lonely sometimes but the freedom to do things that I wouldn't be able to do if I'm in a committed relationship is not that bad too. :wink:

    I have been married to the same woman for over 30 – I could not image life without her

    Single.
    But only because it's more familiar and comfortable.
    Relationships are great, but I haven't been in one yet where I haven't kind of lost my identity a bit.

    While I've always enjoyed being single, I'm sooooo happy with my boyfriend. I love our time together, all the cuddles, knowing that I belong to him and ťhat he wants me. I always liked being single, but I wouldn't trade my guy for anything!

    For the time being, single is fine (after 20 years of hard marriage). I really am enjoying doing whatever I want without the constant negotiation that comes with being in a relationship.

    I'm a patient guy, when it feels right with the right person, I will return to that "status" but I am happy on my own and doing fun things.
     
  17. I'm single by choice.







    Second choice.

    Single, when in a relationship I feel tied back, like I can't really do what I want or be who I am

    I want to be in a relationship. Done being alone. First have to come to a few more people to make it work though.
