Hey, just wondering if all singles feel the same way as I do. There are times when I simply enjoy being singles, doing the things which I like without having to care about others, without having to compromise to please the other partner.
But yet there are times when i crave for love. How do you singles out there deal with all these conflicting feelings?

Why do I feel lonely at times? Am I being desperate? hahaha...

i enjoy being single to the extent of givin up someone i love alot to enjoy freedom.
but i've met a girl that being with her gives me the feeling of love and at the same time, we trust each other so much that we give each other freedom.
spending time togther is not a compromise.
its a hobby for both of us.
the right partner is the point.

It's always a 50-50 thing. Personally I know I can enjoy being single just as well as I enjoy being in a relationship. I feel complete either way and I think that ultimately that is the goal right? To feel complete?

I am content with being single right now. But since there are times when being single is not enjoyable, I have found somone who feels like I do so we are there for each other for those times. He's a great friend, and he's there for movies and dining or needed 'couple events' and other things. But neither one of us want to marry right now. So I suppose we fall into the 'friends with benefits' category. And right now its working for both of us. Will it work forever....doubtful. But its been good for five years. We are happy with how it is. I also have a close family that helps fill in my life,and a profession which I enjoy that fills my life. I have a close relationship with my spiritual beliefs. So I am single and happy.

i don't crave love, I have many people to love and spend time with and share my experience with, but what really gets to me is when my coupled friends say "I know this great guy..." URCH!!! i wish they would realise that right now, I am happy without a serious partner in my life, I date but i am yet yo meet someone that I am serious about and some of my friends think that I should start to "grow up and settle down" but I don't want to settle for second prize, I want to be with the right person or no one at all...

Well... yeah, watcha gonna do.
All you need is love.. you're goin' through a phase.
Just try not to jump on the next guy you meet up with.
as most of us know.. love happens gradually.. you know,.. naturally.. all in good time.
so yeah back to your question, yes i feel that way too..
some enjoy it ..some dont enjoy being single..
uh.. wow ... its a very general answer , i know.
but .. whatcha gonna do.. enjoy it while it lasts.. next thing you know you're hooked to someone..
so i guess.. the only thing i can really say is..
all in good time.. it'll all happen .. soon.

I feel like that all the time.
Pros of Being Single:
No compromization.
LOTS of space and time to yourself.
Never having to share your blankets or pillows.
Being free to go and do as you please without having to consult anyone else.
Cons:
Never having that other person there to do stuff with you when all of your girlfriends are dating their guys and inviting you along.
Not having him to lift heavy stuff at home and out of the car (IE that new TV you just purchased)...
thats really all i can think of.

Your desire for companionship in a human need, like it or not. Its just that some people desire it more than others. I enjoy being single the same reasons you do! Its ok though, we are crazy!

I get these same feelings... You have decide what's more important to you, having no one to answer to or having someone around all the time. You could get REALLY lucky and find someone to be with that doesn't crowd you, good luck !!

I only crave for love when I'm having my period. Other than that, singlehood is the greatest thing in the world, and I wouldn't leave it for anyone.
