I thought I would cherish and enjoy this alone time that I have cause if I marry and have kids, I might be in a loving relationship, but I will never have that quiet independence and total freedom without responsibility ever again.
Learn to have self compassion and be yourself for a while. It's not about being single, it's about who you are as a person and if you are in a relationship are the two of you compatible and bring the best out of each other. If you don’t have a partner then focus on self care, learn something different, surround yourself with good people and find new interest that doesn't involve another half.

I enjoy being single definitely and all the perks that come with it. Making my own decisions , freedom etc I was in a controlling relationship before so it’s welcome however I miss aspects of being in a relationship and enjoy being with the right person sometimes now I think it’s too hard to get back ‘in the game’
Currently I am single and my previous relationship experience ended badly so after that experience I now enjoy my single life again and Im in no hurry to get into a relationship;I just wanna let it flow as I’m totally fine with being single as it doesn’t limit you or deprives you of something!!

Am currently single and I don't plan to marry anytime soon. Dating is out of the scope for me because of my religious beliefs. I am pretty content most of the times regarding my single hood although it'd feel nice to feel someone's romantic love.
Even though I'm age 55, I want to find a Loving Woman who is quiet, laid back, loves to talk, take walks, I like talking things over, I like doing little things mean a lot to me, etc. I get lonely a lot, but I love a feeling of a woman in my life. I love the thought of kids, a baby is so precious.
I mean I wouldn't say I like it.. I am content with it though.. But the short time I was in a relationship, I liked it.. Even though it didn't work out, I realized how much I want another person to blend in with my family, to worry about, to do things with..
I like the companionship and piece.
But I'd rather be single if she provides no companionship/peace and still robs me of solitude.
In my experience so far, being single is better for productivity.
Not better for the loneliness.Single by choice but that doesn't mean I'm happy or satisfied.. single life is great but it's like being idle.. after a while you're gonna need that touch.. that attention.. that SHARING, you know.. it's different from any other relationship whether it be family , friends , whatever.. if it wasn't that good it wouldn't have been the one that makes your happy hormones skyrocket lol..
I'm single by choice, with my working overseas within unpredictable time frames having a SO would not have made any sense. I have in have no children of my own but I have invested time into the younger members of my extended family.
I was single for three years and didn't really feel lonely, but I still don't really miss it
I like it, it's easier when you work 70 hours or more a week
I liked the idea of being single. It really is not as much fun as you think it would be
I don't, but I'm pretty picky so I might be single for a while.
Singlehood had it's advantages and disadvantages. Same as relationship, when you're living with someone in love it's got it's advantages and disadvantages. Same as a job v. s no job lol..
I never liked it, guess that's why I'm with someone or trying if I'm not
I definitely enjoyed being single.
I dont like being single. 😅😭
