positive things about being single

Post Reply New Topic

Dancing around the house in your jammies and not caring if you look like a moron (ok...I do this anyway and I'm married, but this is the FIRST relationship I'd have been willing to do that in)

Make the same thing for dinner every night for a week (or more) if you feel like it and not worry that the other person is going to get bored with it.

CLEANER HOUSE.

Not having to watch movies/TV shows you have zero interest in just to keep the peace.

Whole bed to yourself.

Whole bathroom to yourself.

By the by, I think this was a really good thread idea. I wouldn't trade my marriage for the world, but I certainly remember some up sides to the freedom I had when I was single and I think it's good to reinforce that it's not ALL bad to be on your own.

There are pros and cons to everything. I guess the expectations are the worst for me. Its very nice not to have to live with someone who demands my attention constantly when ever they're around. That was my biggest problem with my first (NT) husband. I enjoy doing things and having fun. But I have to have peace, quiet and time alone.

Being able to have sex with you who want, when you want.

Being able to smoke weed and not be bitched out for being "too high".

lol

You can wipe your willy on the cushions and no one's there to have a go at you.

You won't split your sanity over how to train children. (Unless your'e a single parent. Which case you are busting your butt as is)
You can look at someone whoes nice looking without feeling stupid. There won't be any partner to b***h about it, and tell you that you need to love them better.
What pets you want to keep, you keep if you can.

There's many positives, that's why in the end, I most times choose to stay this way. When you're single you don't have to answer to anybody, you can do as you please with no limits. You don't have to go through the drama and BS that relationships can bring and when you're single, you have as much time on your hands as you'd like.
