Single =FREEDOM
Relationship = Stress

Single= Always with your crew
Relationship = Always with your bf/gf

To young for commitment unless idealy worth it , mingle about :P

I guess the pros of being single is that you can: play the field a little bit, no need to worry about gifts on holidays, there's no 'obligation' to anyone, you're generally more free.

But I don't think being single is 'better'...I think it really depends on the person and whatever makes them happy. Whichever option that is, is the 'better' choice for them.

i would prefer being single . you have more freedoms and you could do whatever you want, and hang out with whoever. you don't have someone to be worrying about .

The people who usually say this are players who don't want to commit. Being single sucks and there is no point to it after about age 30. Honestly if you are single that long something is wrong.

If you can't be happy by yourself then you probably won't be happy with someone else. Too many people rely on others for their happiness. Be happy by yourself and you will attract someone then you can be happy together.

That's the theory anyway. I don't think its better to be in a relationship, at least not for me. I hate the drama and stress. I prefer being single and doing what I want when I want and having no one else to worry about!

I would argue that it can be good either way. When you are single you have many options available to you to grow and mature on a personal level.

When you are in a relationship, a caring mature relationship, you have the opportunity to grow as an individual as well as grow as a couple, which can be fantastic. The flip side is that you are now part of a team, what you do, say, and feel has an effect on the other person.

It's not that one is "better" than the other, they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Don't concentrate on being lonely, instead use it as an opportunity to grow as a person.
