    I would like re awaken this post due to the fact that both my housemates (UK uni student) have gone home for a week to revise and see their boyfriends, while I sit in alone revising drinking cups of tea.

    21 and bored out of my brain. So yes, the loneliness is the worst bit!

    Lack of companionship for sure. It was different when I was younger and had a ton of single friends. Now that I'm 30, most of my friends are married, and many of them have kids, and that cuts down on their socializing with single/childless folks. I also seem to be a magnet for long-distance relationships, so that sucks, too. I'm pretty independent, so I don't necessarily want someone around literally all the time (no live-in boyfriends for me), but it would be cool to finally have someone who lives within reasonable driving distance who I could see whenever I wanted.

    I don't think I could've said this better myself!!! :flowerforyou:

    Spiders are wonderful :< I catch them and put them outside.

    Ditto. Now if it's a cockroach, there's a lot of girlish screaming. Give me spiders any day.

    Companionship is definitely the toughest part for me. I do enjoy having my time to myself, but I miss having someone to come home to. I miss having someone with me through my tough times. My knee surgery was the first big event that I had to go through alone. That sucked.

    I also hate going to "traditional" family events, locations with just myself and the kids. Disney World was awesome, but there were very few single parents there. We went on a picnic yesterday, walked through this massive park and we were the only family without two adults present. I'm not going to force or rush anything to happen, but I'd really like to have that other person around.

    Don't smash cockroaches. They release a pheromone that attracts others in their family. You're better off spray bombing the house.

    Of hundreds of different types of cockroach only four are pests. I like madagascar hissing cockroaches, they're so cute <3 and deaths head! I had three until they finally passed away.

    hearing/seeing only the good stuff about my friends' marriages/engagements/babies, etc. of course, they don't post about their problems. i love love love being single but sometimes i miss companionship...and seeing only the happy stuff on facebook makes me think that they have it good all the time (which, i'm sure, they don't).

    I agree.

    Not so much having babies but I swear everyone is getting engaged.

    I am not really the casual sex sort. So unless I am dating, I am SOL.
