Yes, I enjoy it a lot. :smile:

I don't want to change it anytime in the near future, at least. Probably not in the far future either.

People in relationships are jealous of us, because we can date who we want, when we want and where we want... And the biggest deal... That we will date their partners :'D... Yeah I enjoy being single :smile:

Put it this way, I'd love nothing more than to find "the one", settle down and live the rest of our lives together, but I'm happy to be single until that happens. Not into temporary relationships.

Me. When I was in a relationship I used to constantly fret over whether my boyfriend would cheat on me and why he wouldn't call etc etc. single life gives you a peace of mind

The longest I've been single since my first relationship is about 2 years. The first year was when I was living at home between degrees so I was kind of just in a 'go to work-come home-do my own thing' sort of bubble, I didn't go out and i didn't really socialise with any guys. It was like a complete man-detox. I was quite happy, wasn't over my ex and needed the time to readjust.

Then I went to uni and started going out more, meeting guys. This is when I started to get frustrated because I'd go on a lot of dates that wouldn't lead anywhere, and I started to see friends coupling up. I'd get obsessed with a different guy each week and it was all just a bit exhausting. I didn't really have much self respect either, and was desperate for male approval even if deep down I knew they just wanted sex.

So i suppose it depends on where you are in life. I do have some fond memories of my single days but I wouldn't trade what I have now.

I like it. I can do whatever I want whenever I want, within reason. My spare time is my own.

it's not that I enjoy being single, it's that I really don't enjoy being in relationships. If ya catch my drift.

4 months? Brah...

After spending somewhere between 6-8 years in and out of short term relationships, I spent 4 years being single. Best decision I've ever made, as it gave me a lot of time to reflect on the person I am, the person I'd like to be, how I treat others, etc. Being single is the best time for introspection, and I certainly grew as a person as a result of being single.

Then again, it's not for everyone. I find myself content in solitude, but the amount of people I know who are like me pale in comparison to the amount of people who are unable to be happy with only themselves for company.

This.

What you will find is a lot of career and university-driven women will love being single because they think it makes them autonomous, empowered strong women fighting the patriarchy. They will only start to realise their desire for children after it's too late.

And this.

I am still looking for a girl who isn't going to drive me insane + has natural beauty. I don't think there are any on this site. They are either physically or mentally ugly here.

That's not very nice

Besides, why are you looking for girls on this site anyway? :facepalm:

You probably look like the hunchback of notre dame so say nothing

I don't, unlike that Rob chap. I just enjoy chastising you lot for being hypersensitive. Actually, I am a magnificent gentleman. The supreme gentleman.

A gentleman would never say the things you do.

I prefer it.

- Cheaper
- Get to be me (i find guys in relationships change/put on a different personality with the girl and are obsessively feminine to the point where they don't even live the way they prefer)
- Don't have to devote stupid amounts of time and effort to her
- Without meaning to come across as a 'lad' I actually would rather have sex with many different vaginas at this age (21 years old) then get in a relationship when I'm older and willing to settle down.

I'm almost 25, and have been single for around 4 months now. In my group of friends, 2/3rds are in relationships. I had a look on facebook to see what people from school were upto etc. and pretty much 95 percent are in relationships, some engaged, married, and many long-term.
I found that there are many more people in relationships than single. I spent a short amount of time on a dating site, but deleted my account after realising I didn't really want to be in a relationship just yet.
There are one or two guys I fancy, but nobody I can say I have feelings for as such (still a little bit for my ex, but I've accepted that that's over and I know it'll take a little more time) but there is something very liberating about being single.
I think I would be perfectly happy alone. I asked a male friend of mine if anyone actually just wanted to be single, and he told me, no.
Maybe I just haven't met the right person, but these days, I really do not believe in 'the one' and everlasting love. It just seems like most relationships come to an end, and I just don't think it's worth the heartache. Is there anybody on here who is single through choice and isn't looking to settle down with someone? Just out of curiosity.

I love being single. The idea of having to give up time and money for a girl when all I want is sex sickens me to the stomach. I intentionally stay single because I can not give girls what they want.
