Would you rather be single or married and why?

I am married and love being married, I love the stability it brings, the feeling of being with this person forever, and I get to share every thing with the best man on earth.

We met when I was 18 and got engaged, got married when I had just turned 19 and he is 15 years older. I love the fact I got married quite young because that means I don't have to wait half my life to find the right person.

I love having a best friend who is also my hubby, someone to confide in, hold your hand and understand you. To help you thru the hard times and to comfort you when you're having a bad day.

Also, it's a great feeling knowing he looks foward to seeing me at the end of his work day, he looks foward to spending the weekends with me doing silly things. Tonight we're going to play battle ships haha. I love being a pair, it's like we're 2 peas in a pod.

I'd never change it, the only thing i'd change is I wish he was around more... poor him :twisted:
 
I wouldn't want to be married because I'm only 18 lol, which is a bit young for marriage. Whether or not I'd want to be in a relationship depends on who I'd be with, I would far prefer to be single than to be with someone who doesn't make me happy, or understand my problems. I've been with my boyfriend for almost 3 years, and he really is my closest friend and the person I turn to when I'm unhappy and need support. We take care of each other, and try to make each other as happy as we can.

To be honest i think its best im single at the moment cos of sp and depresion.

But If i was well enough or if i did meet someone anyway and we got together, even though i think im kinda young at 20.. i wouldnt mind getting married.Because if i felt like it was right and loved her.. it would be nice to comit to each other fully and show each other were dedicated to each other and making it work.. i know you dont need to get married to do that but i think it would be nice.

I will always be single, not out of choice but can't see me ever getting over SA and talking to girls.

personaly I'd have to say that I have been most comfortable when I've had a partner. Someone speacial you can trust (hard thing to come by) and share your thoughts with is always (in my case) comforting and with the right person can be quite a surreal experiance for both parties.

I got married when I was almost 21, and have been married for 8 yrs. now. I think its great! Jinxed: U know I'm a girl..LOL.. :lol: hopefully its self explanatory by my name..lol.
I can't imagine my life if I was single..of course it's fun to be single but I think its better to be married to the love of your life. We have had our ups and downs like anyone but after 8 years there isn't too much we don't know about ea. other and we love and accept ea. other as we are. He accepts my faults and I accept his. We are at a stage where we know the good, bad and the ugly about ea. other and we love w/an unconditional love. Its easy to love when things go good but when they go bad and you still get past it..then love matures and grows. So I am very happy married and I know God has given me the right person for me! :D
Meow: its great that you have found someone that makes you so happy!
Crazyfairyx: you too and you never know he may be the one you marry..later on when you are ready.. :D

I often think that all i really want is to be married and have kids. I HATE being single. But at the same time, I dont like the idea of having someone around that much. Another person to let down.

I'm female and since I've never been married, I'm not sure. My relationships always turn out shitty and I have huge problems with trusting people. So I don't know if I ever could be married. I never expect to be married. So I'll take the 3rd option: death.

For me it'd be single. I start to feel dissatisfied with someone after a while. Initially I feel kind of exhilirated, but then it wears off and incompatibilities start to show up along the way. Then I also start feeling the need for space again since I invariably get the idea that I'm pissing my youth away on one person and have a kind of internal freak-out session and decide to break things off, following which I will live in total isolation again until I get lonely. Needless to say, I'm not a good boyfriend.

Been married for about two and a half years now.

Obviously, it's not for everyone. But I am most definitely enjoying it thus far. :)


Oh and I'm 100% manly man.

single for now but eventully married but i dont think thats going to happen for the following reasons

1. i dont want kids (ofcourse this isnt a requirement in marriage but it limits me with women a lot)
2. i doubt i could ever find someone i like enough to spend my life with i get bored with people fast
3. i doubt i could ever find a women with similer interests
4. and of course if i ever did come across someone like this chances are i would do nothing or turn them down due to being shy

I was married once.. and for reasons I don't feel comfortable sharing it ended after 5 years.
I've been single now for um, 7 years and although I have no desire to get married again, I wouldn't mind a long-term companion. (I'm male, speaking of female company)

For me, the mere thought of losing "just a companion" vs. having another "ex-wife"
is far less painful to the battered emotions and bruised heart. (defensive wall well in place)
