    I like being single right now, I can loose weight without worrying about other people & the food they bring in the house, I can have the freedom of living by myself, & concentrate on getting a good job. When I have that good job, & have lost enough weight to be comfortable with myself, they I will start the dating scene again.

    It's kind of funny to me, people complaining about being married/ taken, whichever. I've been with my husband for over 6 years, and we still do what we want. To me, that's a trusting relationship. We want to spend time together, we want to send time with friends, there's a good balance. I hated being single, and I couldn't imagine being single again. Been in the same relationship my whole adult life, and I wouldn't change it :drinker:

    I've been single for long enough. However, being able to do whatever you want, whenever you want, is nice.


    ^^^^ My thoughts exactly!!!

    I can't prove it...but I suspect some folks are making excuses for "the Suck."

    Course, i'm biased. A LOT. I'm terrible single. I'm wired to connect with a woman. Just. Feels. Better.

    I'd really really love to have a lover to battle for the covers. I'd really enjoy reminding her to put the toilet seat back up when she's done. I'd cherrish her morning breath because it means she's there in bed, nuzzled into me. Okay, I wouldn't really cherrish the breath...but I'd understanding having to even SMELL the dragon-breath means she's there...very close to me. I'd be giddy over arguing about bills because in the middle of the argument, when we're most stirred up, there'd be a chance we'd stop talking and start making out. I can't wait for the day a lover causes me to change plans, just because I want to hang out with her more than anything. The thought of calling in sick to work, because she will not let me out of bed? Fantasy of mine.

    I never go home at the end of a night out thinking it was a wast of time or money.

    I can go where I want when I want without having to 'check in'.

    More room in the fridge.

    I take out the trash when I feel like it.

    Fewer dishes to wash

    Have more time to build up my savings for an engagement ring (in case that 'one' ever does come along).

    I don't hate being single, but I am getting a bit tired of it. On the plus side -- I was the only one with a vote when it came to naming my daughter (or for that matter, deciding it was time to have a child in the first place), my side of the bed comes out of the middle, I can keep the A/C at whatever temp I want, I pick all the movies, I cook what I want to eat...
    Yeah, I'd like to meet someone, but when I do, it's going to be a massive adjustment on my part. I've been completely self-sufficient for a very long time.

    I honest to god love going to movies by myself. I went to my first movie solo at 13.

    I sound like such a loner - I'm really not.

    I've only been single for two weeks...

    But so far I can tell you it's nice not to have to make sure to call him on weekdays since I only saw him on the weekends. And he isn't ruining my eating plans for two days of every week. I can just eat what I want and not consider what he wants.

    I still miss him, though. =(

    Going on a month myself. I know how you feel. Hang in there.

    Going on a year come Sept 6th and the divorce broke my heart. Still working on getting it together and "enjoying it". I do like watching whatever I want to watch on t.v. although I only have two channels, sitting out on the porch on my laptop or Kindle for however long I like, taking a nap when I like. However, I think I was just "designed" to be with someone I love so hope to grow old with the love of my life one day.

    Happily married. BUT I'll admit theres a few things I miss from time to time.

    -Not being accountable to anyone else for what I choose to do
    -Spending my money the way I want to
    -Doing what I want, when I want

    But I wouldn't trade my wife for that.
