Being married is not a simple task to do and desicion to make. Because your not free anymore of what the things you like to do. You always decide together with your partner. Unlike, being single you enjoyed all the things you like, like go shopping with friends, bar hopping, disco and etc.
So, which one do you prefer?
-
It's a matter of preference. I, myself, have never been married, but I do have 2 children and been in 2 long term relationships. I never wanted to get married, but, of course, if I felt it was right I would do so. I have nothing against marriage and am glad I was not married to my children's father - I guess I knew it wouldn't work out and I saved myself a lot of legal drama.
-
I have been married twice and neither of the men were worth the aggravation I went thru to be with them. I don't think I will ever get married again. Too much stress and not enough compromising.
-
I'm 27 years old and have never been married...one day...but not today...i already have too much drama in my life! :-D
-
Single amd loving it and I think it is to each their own choice, but as for me I have been married and do not really miss it (Besides, I can have my dirty socks on the couch)(LOL)
-
If you are planning on keeping them, then they probably should be single........
-
I love my husband..... there are certainly parts of being single that I miss.
-
most of the time married but sometimes single when im feeling stressed!
-
I'm a lot happier when I'm with someone. My boyfriend and I spend all of our spare time together every day, and I love it. I'd much rather be married.
-
I am engaged to be married this May. I enjoy being single, mostly because of the fact that I only have to be responsible for myself (no children), but I also love my future husband and enjoy having someone there for me, no matter what.
-
I'm married for 4 yrs and love my husband :heart: .... but being single was great!!... good times that I miss sometimes. But don't take me wrong, being married to my sweetheart was the best decision I made!
-
I :heart: being married. My 6yr anniversary is this month!
-
Too bad some men think they are still single. Or they talk like they are anyway. Married is a piece of paper to some that they can just throw away. It is sad. Vows are written to say in front of God to make a covenant with the husband, wife, and God, that puts you together, it must really hurt God when the husband and wife hurt each other.
-
I would love to be married one day, but until I find that special guy single is alright with me
-
stokeman455: I`ve been married twice. Once for 8 years and then, for 4 years. I was`nt ready. I hardly knew these women and both times it ended up in divorce!!! Divorce is one of the most terrible things I`ve had to do in my life! It took me 5 years to start dating again.For me that was a life time but,I was so hurt that, I just stayed to myself. I do not believe I`ll ever marry again :dontknow:
-
single in enjoying it while i can wont last forever
-
It will last forever if you want it to. Marriage is not a requirement. Statistics show that married people live longer and I guess it's because of the support in partnership.
-
Umm...I don't like being single but at this moment I'm not ready for marriage until I get my life together, but I soooooooo wanna get married in the future.
-
I am and prefer to be married!
-
IT REALLY DOESN'T BOTHER ME EITHER WAY.
-
i would gladly go back to single and dating ;) living with a man is soooo hard!
-
I am married but I rather be single
-
single and staying that way....
-
I've been divorced almost 14 years and am raising 1 son, don't need anyone else to care for, or frankly to get approval from for anything.
-
Single n lovin it
-
I would definately say being married. It took me a long time to find my hunny. He is the best husband. I didn't date much but the two serious ones I dated for 6 years each. A waste of time, but you learn from your mistakes. Then unexpectedly I met my husband. We dated for three months and got married. We have been married since 2000. :heart: :heart: :heart:
-
I prefer to be married. I am currently engaged ;D
-
I was married for five years. It was good days and it was bad days. When it was good it was great and when it was bad it was hell. I think I wouldn't mind another shot at it one day.....
-
Well, I was married for about 7.5 years before we separated and eventually divorced. I wouldn't say I like being "single" - but I like being with someone.
I guess it depends on how compatible you are? I wasn't happy a lot of the time we were married (got married very fast, very young), on the other hand, I've been dating a guy about a year, and we are taking things slow and it's great.
So, I dunno. lol
-
they both have there advanages and disadvantages, for example being single you can do whatever you want whenever you want and theres know one you have to answer to. On the other hand having someone by your side means you have someone who cares if you get sick, hurt, take you out for your birthday every year and know things about you that you might not want anybody else to know, so when you need that good laugh, hug or just someone you trust to talk to, being married ain't so bad either! :angel12:
-
I am married with kids. I would not like to be single now and still have my kids to support as a single mom. It's just too hard. I would have liked to be single before but it can be kinda lonely. If you have a good partner then being married is not so bad but when you don't being single is sometimes a great idea. Keep in mind the grass is always greener on the other side. Are we ever happy?
-
bing married is what the lord want's us too be married between men and women only way it too be :dog: :dog: :angel12: :heart:
-
i am nt married but we live like we are and i love it. i hate being single.
-
i hated being single, i seemed to always be getting into trouble, at least now when i get in trouble there is someone else there in trouble with me!
-
:BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: I tried it .. HATED it!!! {WITH SOMEONE}... I hate always having to fix myself up for a man.. I love going without makeup, hair unbrushed, in an old nightgown tooo much to change for a man!!!! hahahah
-
I would prefer to be single without kids like now. I only have to worry about myself, and I can concentrate on what I am doing without the distractions of kids.
-
:BangHead: Being married is a total mistake...but I am and Im dealing with it becaus eI do love my husband...things change wayyy to much when you get married!! I miss the old days!
-
I perfer being single was married for 14 years horriable split. Marriage is just too much stress and work. Being Single I am free to do whatevr I want without having to consult a spouse. I will not marry again.
-
I'm not married but I live with my sons father like we are and I would much rather be single. Even though being single would make me a single mom I don't really mind. A relationship is way to much work and much more trouble than its worth.
-
I'm not married yet, but if the question were rephrased in my case, being in a relationship or single, I'd actually have to say SINGLE. For the first time in 5 years, I'm actually single, and have been for a few months. I have an awful fear of being alone, so this is a huge step for me.
-
I prefer being single... or in a relationship. But I think now a days people feel that it's a requirement to eventually get married. You don't have to get married if you don't want. Just because that's the tradition, doesn't mean you have to follow it. If you love each other and you're perfectly happy the way you are, you shouldn't feel the need to push your relationship further. Marriage seems to ruin a lot of people anyway. I would never want a joint bank account or any of that.

:'(
SAD BUT TRUE, but, I have to agree with most of the people's comments on here...I have been married 3 times now:
#1) Lasted only 3 yrs, but I had just turned 18 and should have listened to my mother.
#2) Lasted 15 yrs, and was great, until I found out that I was wife #6, and he had already bought a new home for wife 7!!!
#3) Was just a HUGE mistake...I was still sick over my last divorce, and my father has JUST died THAT week of cancer... I was not thinking too well..
But, now that I am old, (46 yrs old) I can tell you, its better to just be by yourself than to settle for someone just because you dont want to be alone..my new AND LAST husband has taken me to the bank and is just the most selfish person that I have ever known, (& I knew him for 27 yrs before marring him, but I thought that he had grew up, or changed...a leapord dont change its spots, that is soooo true!)
So, I think, and its only my own personal opinion, but..its better to just be by yourself instead of accepting someone because you dont want to be alone...I am alone anyways, so I lost almost everything because I didnt want to be alone? It's no ones but my own fault for being so blind...
