What's more challenging and harder to live?

[Anonymous]

Unmarried, virgin , totally single & alone without any relationship ever... till last breath

Getting married , having kids and raising them

[Rania05]

Raising is fine by me, but birthing them? That's one of the 10 top spot in my lists of I-do-rather-nots, I've been thinking whether to consider a man who already has kids from divorce or widowed as my marriage partner for years, and I'm 17, but it's better for me if I adopt kids for my own later.
Blood relationship are great, but what's greater? The bloody pregnancy and the aftermath, definitely don't want to go through that torture that would risk my mental, physical health, work and even life.

You are just 17 so it's ok to be scared of pregnancy

Being married and having kids is probably way harder than just being single

[Asker]

Single forever?

[mobiusforniner]

Having lived a long time as a lone single virgin, married with kids is waaaayyy harder. Way harder.

Jacking off is easier. Fire and forget.

[Asker]

You still virgin?

[mobiusforniner]

I said looong time.

Being alone in single hood seems more challenging to me 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Asker]

Oh why so?

[Guy13]

I am not the apostle Paul but if I had a desire as he did then it may be okay. Desire brings attention so it is likely that I would not be alone after all. I do not know why... it seems like it would be very difficult to have only friends in life. I am just guessing, thank God. The poor monks !!!

[Sour-rose]

Getting married with some dumbass and then him saying he wants to have a family when he's too much of a fool. So then I be taking care of a baby and a stupid man.:)

[BlueScorpio]

I guess b cause growing a family takes time, effort, a lot of commitment. It fan be very challenging, but if fine correctly it can be rewarding.

[TheSpaceGnome]

B is harder.

Having kids is one of the biggest roadblocks to personal freedoms anyone will ever have.

[AviatorTom]

Being married is easier... you have someone to help you. Being single, you're all alone.

[TheSpaceGnome]

From easiest (top) to hardest (bottom):
Married without kids
Single without kids.
Married with kids.
Single with kids.

Being single and lonely is mentally crippling.

[TheSpaceGnome]

I find teaching a toddler to do basic things to be mentally crippling.

I'd rather stick to conversing with high functioning adults/teens who stimulate creative thinking and intellectual advancement.

[CA4444]

Being alone is so much easier 😭

[Asker]

Forever single and virgin? Easier and better?

[CA4444]

Definitely not better, but easier, that was the question

[Asker]

If it's easier then why isn't it better?

Who has a harder life: Tiger or Mid Class human?
