What are single people supposed to do other than eat?

I get the whole thing about creating a caloric deficit
But if you are single what are you supposed to do other than eat, go to work, and sleep?
People in relationships can:
have coffee with their husband
talk to their husband about their day
hold their husband's hand
have sex with their husband
go on a hike with their husband
Whereas single people have a lot of time on their hands which is why they eat and get fat

Therapy would be really good for you!5

have coffee with friends and family
talk to their friends and family about their day
go on a hike with their friends and family
do all kinds of interesting hobbies
go clubbing
visit points of interest
...etc.
Your relationship status does not dictate the awesomeness of your life. Your life is what you make it.
A very good thing for you to do with your life would be to stop trolling the forums and find a more productive hobby.16 -

I was slender when I was single ... I actually gained weight after I got married.
When I was single I ...
-- took night classes and got to know people that way
-- went out to various events in my city
-- travelled quite a bit
-- worked on various projects in my place
-- exercised a lot!
I joined several cycling clubs and rode with various ones at various times
+ I went to the gym
+ I went for long walks and even tried running (not something I'm particularly good at)
+ I took several yoga classes

When I was single I was fit and toned! I over did it but I exercised more then than with someone. Went out more too.And well got more sex single too lol girl your head space is all wrong! Di you like to exercise? By that photo I'd say no. Are you just relying on being on a food deficit? If so that makes it difficult to maintain and suck for the social life. I'd say add in the exercise as part of the social life...2

Being single.. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!

I'm single and go on plenty of hikes.
I also have sex. I don't talk about mine and my hands business, though.
Hell, I'm going on a cruise to Jamaica in September.
Single life is good.
I'm sure this thread is satire, but in any case.. Yeah.7 -

Speaking as a husband I can assure you that from your list only "going on a hike" is going to last longer than 10 mins
There is still plenty of time left for eating.
What you need are kids. Get a couple of those and your days will become full to overflowing with *kitten* you need to need to get done* before you can eat.
* mainly picking *kitten* up off the floor and putting it away and/or trying to persuade your offspring to do it themselves.8 -
I can't help but think you sound a bit bitter about the fact your still single and other people are in relationships.
You must be doing something wrong, but it doesn't mean there is something wrong with YOU.
Maybe give internet dating a try ?
I can assure you not all single people sit around just eating and becoming fat, that's just a choice some people make.
If you think about it some couples sit together and become fat, so it's nothing to do with being single, I think you sound like you've given up hope of finding someone I think the trick is work on yourself, get fit not fat and try to lighten up a bit about stuff. Good luck hope you do meet someone nice1 -

Being married doesn't mean you do those things. I work, come home, cook, take care of kids then go to bed. I don't get a lot of help from my husband therefore leaving me very little time for anything else.0

Isn't that what cats are made for?7

Read a book without anyone interrupting you, go for a walk, go wherever you want without having to explain it to anyone, enjoy having your own thoughts, see a movie or a show, build a computer, paint a picture of your cat, take a class, take selfies.5

I do these things, all the time.
You paint a picture of @lithezebra 's cat? Does she know?1 -

I've been married for sixteen years. I do none of these things.3 -
I feel like this is not actually a real thread.6

Effing really?
The possibilities are endless when you're single...all of your time is actually your time to do what you will...you get married and have a family and suddenly time becomes a real issue because priorities have to focus on more than just you...you're single, you're all you have to worry about or be concerned with...
When I was single I:
Had coffee with friends...or not...sometimes I just enjoy a cup of coffee on the patio and taking in a beautiful morning.
I went hiking...a lot...sometimes with friends, sometimes on my own...a hike in the woods on your own is a beautiful thing...I still do it.
I road my bike a lot
I hit the gym
I played frisbee golf and ultimate frisbee with my buddies
I played video games for hours on end
I spent a lot of time reading without being interrupted
I could go on and on and on....
Please, give me a break! It's so much easier to do what you want to do when you want to do it when you don't have other considerations like a wife and family...it's great and all, but your time ceases to be your time...it's everyone's time.

"Fight with your husband"
You forgot that one.5 -
I am single. I read, quilt, clean my house, play with the cats, hang out with my friends, play video games, exercise, go to festivals and craft shows, volunteer at different organizations in my town, and travel.0

I had so much more time to focus on fitness, golf, fishing and other activities before my family demanded most of my free time...0

Were you really serious when you were single or did that happen after you were married for awhile?
@newmeadow serious about what?0 -
