What are the pros and cons of being in a relationship?

I say do what you feel... how do you feel? You're not obligated to be in a relationship (this isn't an arrainged marriage you know! Lol ;) ).
Anyway, some pros and cons... well...
Pros:
-Someone to cuddle, kiss, basically be physically intimate with! Oxytocins and vassoprressins and everything (that stuff floating in both your blood streams and forming great memories in your brain that bring you happiness!).
-Having someone to do stuff with :)
-A friend and lover.
-Having emotionally support and yes physical too!
-Feeling valued (not the only way to be one great way to!) and wanted and loved and all that other stuff!
-Someone to build dreams with! Like start a family with! A future with! If the relationship gets to that point, which often does!
Cons:
-If they're not a good person or they have mental/emotional issues, they will treat you badly.
-You have to take in the bad with the good meaning if they are your partner especially like husband or wife, you have taken a vow (a promise) to be there through thick and thin, good and bad, richer or poorer, in sickness and in health - including death.
-Break ups are hurtful. It's technically a form of rejection. It's like a divorce but informal.
Well that's very individual.
For me the pros are having someone there for you and that you can always talk to, do fun things with, cuddle, sex, just the feeling of romantically loving someone and being loved in return is amazing.
Cons: There's always the risk of getting hurt as it is in with any form of relationship to another human being, the risk of you having to hurt them in case you fall out of love, constant compromise. To some probably also the loss of freedom and being able to flirt with whomever they want but personally I don't do that and I get very attached to someone when I fall in love so I don't care for anyone else I may or may not miss out on.
You shouldn't try to find someone though, especially if you don't want to. Eventually someone will come along and then you'll just know.
Pro's of being in a relationship:
Support
Emotional comfort
Love
closeness
security
Passion
Happiness
Fun
Cons:
fights
misunderstandings
break ups
If getting a girlfriend feels repetitive to you, then your not ready for a girlfriend/relationship and just need to stay single at the moment.
I know, that's why I said if "getting" a girlfriend, not the actual girlfriend, is repetitive then you need to stay single.
then get one when your're ready to date?
heck if i know, im not you lol You'll know you're ready when your willing to put in the effort to get a girlfriend?
The results of the poll sadden me. Fewer and fewer people have regard for the sciences.
Pros: Longer life expectancy, higher overall utility in the long run, more flexibility in terms of children, peak desirability for a spouse, fewer false or destructive beliefs in long-term relationships, and ultimately more meaning and purpose in life.
Cons: Less sexual freedom, fewer opportunities for personal pleasure, more responsibility, hard work, necessary requirements and pressures, and no more personal space.
The choice seems clear to those who are wise.
Being single is better than a relationship just for the sake of being in one. I tried life as single a time long and I didn't find that bad or didn't feel alone.
Try it out, don't be afraid, maybe you like it. I assure you, you will learn a lot in this time
Being single doesn't mean automatically rejecting every girl who could be someone special. I know there are guys who don't give a girl any chance, they pump and dump them no matter how those girls behave.
Just don't fall for them so easy and don't hesitate to say "thank you for your time" if there is a red flag. Finally you will find one who is acceptable.

Pros: No clue.
Cons: Way too many to mention.
Dude... stay single... the dating world is shit these days... these women want waaaaaay too fucking much. I had this moron on here tell me that im upset/mad because women werent interested in me... lol... really? do you know how much peace i have? i dont have to check in every 30 mins... i dont have to hear another persons problems... i can spend my money on ME!! and this idiot says im upset...
IM upset when they are... because girls dont handle rejection well.
Depends when you broke up. Work on yourself, have fun with friends, and talk to new women. You go looking for a relationship when you are down, women are like bloodhounds and can pick up on that quick.
Work on yourself and become happy with who you are before doing that again. Enjoy time for yourself for a bit.
The downside is that you have to take in the problems of another person. Their concerns now become yours. You have to take into consideration what they want whenever you do something or go somewhere. You have to provide emotional support to said person regularly rather than look for it elsewhere. A bunch of other stuff.
Upside, you have someone to do the same for you.
ik and tbh i dont feel like doing all that rn but i would love it in return and i miss being able to talk to someone all the time and seeing someone
If you dont feel ready or it seems like work to you take your time and enjoy being single dont rush into something bc u think u want it. Enjoy life and the next time you see a girl and think u might wanna get in the game again then you know your ready.
Being single = possible many different sexual encounters. Most likely no sexual encounter and depression.
Relationships = probably monogamous, future together with babies and growth. Cons: monogamous, you'll still masturbate from time to time. Depression.
I'm actually 31
For me it was nice to be in a relationship. It will definitely challenge your patience.
Also, what's the point if you dont grow as a person and pass on your wealth and life experience onto the next generation?
If your not ugly just enjoy yourself while you still have your youth. Time is something you can never get back. Look for something serious when your near 30 or in your 30's. You'll have the option to pick older, same age, or younger and by then you'd hopefully have a stable well paying job.
If your ugly then keep searching because options are limited.
So many fish in the sea. You're not sure if you want to stop discovering all the different varieties. Because once you select one you lose options. Whatever you do don't co-sign anything and keep your bank information and passwords somewhere safe. Even married couples should have separate bank accounts for anything not home related.
Pros: not being lonely anymore. Being happy the majority of the time. Cuddling. Having a best friend that you can kiss. A sense of comfort and security.
Cons: loneliness. Jealousy when you see other couples laughing together. Sadness. Loneliness. Loneliness. Loneliness. And more loneliness.
Yea.
The con of a relationship is that you have to put up with someone, and your times is not all your own. The pro, is that you have someone to put up with. Of course, in a relationship, it hopefully is much better than just putting up with them.
You don't need us to persuade you to do one over the other. It's what you're comfortable with. You can still date and enjoy women's company. Be happy where you are.
If you're emotionally healthy and secure and you find someone good, there are no cons.
I am 100% emotionally healthy. I say that because all relationship involves some conflict and if you're the jealous or petty type, it's just going to be a nightmare.
If I were you I'd wait, sounds like you maybe had a bad break up or something. But stay single for awhile , have fun. When you least expect it the " one" will find you.
Yup happened to me
Enjoy your time being single. It has a ton of perks and if you don’t want to get into a serious relationship, it’s not really gonna lead anywhere if you do get into one. Being single can be great.
Pros = sex, cuddling, companionship, friendship
Cons = sex, nagging, PMS, you are always wrong
It's life what are you going to do. 😎
All those, would not miss. I want someone to give me freedom.
The questions and stalking like in the picture you uploaded.
There only are cons when you're with the wrong person.
Pros: Foreplay and fucking!
Cons: Everything else lol
