After my few experiences with relationships, seeing other relationships in action, and seeing how the majority of the male gender treats me...Yes. I am definitely happy about being single.


I could say the same with females but I wouldn't tar them all with the same brush.

I am in-between...since I have friends who seem to use it as an excuse not to hang around with you (not even if you asked them once in six months!)...that is when it gets to you sometimes.

I'm... content with it, happy sometimes, non-caring or lonely other times. Ofc, having been single for all of my life makes the loneliness hard sometimes.

Hell Yeah, I'm happy being single. I have seen to many f****d up relationships to believe that love cures all. Though, I have my sights set on this one girl in my hometown, who I want to date this summer.

I'm not. I hate it. But I know that if I did get into a relationship right now it would be guarenteed to fail.

I just occupy myself with other things to keep my mind off it.

This does not apply to now. I'm kinda happy about being single at the moment. I can focus on school better.

I have almost always been single, and I enjoy it most of the time.

I've always been single. I would like to have a girlfriend just to experience what that kind of relationship is like, if for no other reason. It seems to be one of the most basic of human experiences that I've never experienced.

I am the same, and I would love to experience this, but after recovering a slight spell of desperation, I am content with my current single life. I have mapped out my life goals and what I want to do, and now that is my priority. Once you have that, and you are secure in who you are and what you want, it should be easier to find women to date and eventually have a relationship with. Don't settle for someone who you do not truly wish to be with though, as you will do her and yourself no favours.

Love your life before you love someone else :)

I am very unhappy being single. I have been all over Europe, worked in several places in the south of the uk and am independant. At the age of 45yr I can't meet anyone I like and am now to old. I look after myself by keeping fit and trim. On dating sites women my age seem to old and mature and I just don't fancy them. Quite a few of those very woman who rejected or didn't show any interest in me when I was younger are now single. The should have gone for that dorky boy at college instead of that bit of rough.

I'm generally ok when I'm keeping myself busy, being single is great as you have all the time to yourself. But there are (frequent) moments where I do feel like something's missing. I'd kill for a real meaningful hug :? Haven't really had a hug in over a decade lol
