| Single or in a relationship: PRO VS.CONS
Multi questions here, do you enjoy being single or in a relationship?
If you enjoy being single, why? are there things you miss about being in a relationship? and in reverse when in a relationship, are there things you miss about being single?
My standpoint, I think i'd rather be in a relationship, I have seen the single life for too long (yes, I do hang out with girls all the time), but I do miss being in a relationship. The biggest thing I miss about being a relationship is the fact you have someone to call on, someone that puts up with you and someone you can talk to. Sometimes talking with friends is difficult to do because they'll clown on you. Im a white guy, but most of my friends are vietnamese and chinese people and they're the type of dudes that make everything a joke. I miss being able to just "be" with your SO, talking about problems, ambitions etc.

I feel the exact same way. Being single is awesome, but there are times where being single for too long, you start envying your buddies relationships.
I do enjoy being single simply the fact that your just doing your own thing at the moment. But the thing i miss about being in a relationship most is the fact you always have someone there for you, someone you can hold, and someone that you can relate to.

Well, i think ur frds really dictate how u feel about urself. If all ur frds r single (like back in junior high), single is cool cuz u can do wutever u want. As ur group gets older and start to have relationships, u would want to have 1 as well since u guys r no longer hanging out as much. And by the time all ur frds r in relationships, let's be honest, they'll not have to time for u anymore. Ppl believe in the notion of "bros over hoes" are simply dillusional. Most ur "bros" will ditch u for their "hoes".
Simply put, society forces u to be in a relatioship, whether u like it or not. Being single takes A LOT of determination. And the truth is, the sooner u get into a long term relationship the better since ur choice will decrease with age. By the time u'r 40, most of them on ur menu will be women who married 3 times and have 20 kids with 5 different men. I'm not saying they'r bad ppl. Heck, they may be the best personalities u've ever encountered. But I know I will have a hard time sleeping at night.

Enjoy being single. The pro about it is you can meet lots of girls and fuck em. Pro of being in a relationship is that you can talk to your SO about real shit that matters, money. Just playing haha anyways you can talk to them about whatever and express your sincere feelings. Con of being single is that the sex is not there 24/7, and you have to work for it. Con of being in a relationship? The drama and shit you have to go through just to make it work. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Right now, I prefer being single. It is much harder to devote your time to a SO when you got other things on your mind, like school, finding a career etc.
Sure, it is nice to have that person there for you, but if you can't commit to your part of the bargain and devote time for the SO, then it is not fair for the other person. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Anybody who has in a relationship for a while misses being single and anybody whose been single for a while misses being in a relationship. I am freshly single and enjoying being stress-free and independent.

Most people aren't single by choice. The "Charlie Harper" types aren't a dime a dozen. What are though are guys who try to front this role to make it seem like their singleness is their choice.

When you're in a relationship, it's like owning two cars. Except one doesn't talk back.

Sometimes I miss just being in love and having someone love me in return. But the freedom of being single is ok too. I guess the best senario is to have someone who allows you the personal freedom so you do feel the need to be single anymore.

It's about sexual freedom; which is beneficial only for a small select group of individuals.
At least last I recall, it's not against the rules to have & chill with friends of either gender. Posted via RS Mobile | |
