is it better to get married? or stay single? why?

Answer 1

It's better to be single and lonely than to be married and lonely

Answer 2

That's a question we all need to answer for ourselves.
Marriage requires compromise, patience and teamwork.
Marriage requires that we support each other and work each day to do something nice for the other one.
Marriage requires that you wake up each day and do something to make your spouses life a little easier.
If you can COMMIT to that, then marriage is right for you.
If you want things for you, if you are self focused, then no, it's better to stay single.
Love is NOT enough, contrary to many peoples beliefs. You need to be a stable person, have your life together and your partner should be the same.
I think too many people (girls especially) romanticize the wedding day, but don't really think about what being married means.
Then, on top of all of this, you both need to agree on the kid and religion topics.
If she's going to be a stay at home mom or not, if you are going to share the same spiritual beliefs.
All of this is crucial to having a healthy marriage.

Answer 3

That depends on what you want.

If you want a companion, someone to come home to every night. Someone that will give you children cook for you and clean for you. Someone that you can help raise children with and cook and clean for. Someone that you combine incomes with and buy a home and grow together....

If you want to be single, you better be happy being alone. Never knowing if you're going to have a companion. You never have to answer to anyone, you can pretty much do what you want without opposition. Kids are an option here but you will need to adjust your life in the single w/kids scenario.

It all depends on what you want. If you have someone you love and she wants you, then marry her, what do you have to lose?

Answer 4

It is better to get married. Sharing a bed in marriage is much more respectable than outside of marriage. Live respectfully. Marriage will keep you out of temptations and will keep you focused on other things in life. If you are single, you are constantly worrying about your relationship, or how to get a date, or how to get that guy or girl to notice you which keeps your mind diverted out of all other things in your life such as God, school, job, family, friends, etc. You should get married if you find the right person.

Answer 5

I would say it depends on you. I got married at 19. I love my husband with all my heart and I love our 3 kids. It was a new challenge for me to get married and have a family. I never liked or enjoyed the whole parting thing.

Answer 6

Depends on the person. There are advantages to both. However, from my personal perspective, single is good at a young age until you find that special someone. Marriage is beneficial as you age because it helps build a bond with that special someone and it allows you to avoid the thought of loneliness at an elderly age.

Answer 7

There's two sides to every story and there are the good/bad points to every subject, including marriage. For me, I would prefer to stay single, but that's my opinion. Staying single allows you to have more freedom, while marraige will provide you with warmth and love. If you are unsure about marriage, try talking to your friends and family and see what opinion each of them has on this topic. You'll be surprise about all the stories you'll hear.

Happy Holidays! =)

Answer 8

I've been married, but the greatest day of my life was the day I got divorced.

I wouldn't have experienced that joy had I stayed single.

On the other hand, it took 10 years of misery to appreciate the joy of singlehood.

Answer 9

single. only because getting married seems like it ends in divorce

Answer 10

If you know that you have found love and have been together for awhile I would say go for it....get married because the best gift that anyone can give is their love forever!!
