Good: you dont have to worry about looking good for someone else...ummm.... uhhh... I cant think of any more. lol

Bad: you dont have someone to care about, or to care about you. you dont have someone who is there to make you smile and feel safe and loved. When i look at other couples i get sad and wished someone loved me like that. umm... I can think of more but i wont make you endure my hopless romantic ramblings any longer lol..

Good: Not having to answer to anybody and being able to do what you please
Bad: Not having somebody to answer to.. no haha im just kidding..I would have to say the good moments, the laughs, the holding each other, the conversation about the future, etc.

Good:
1. I can book a flight somewhere at a moments notice and just GO!!!
2. I can have lots of 'me' time when I need it
3. I don't have to share the remote!
4. I can leave my handbags (and other stuff) all over my home....so it's a 'pretty' mess sometimes lol
5.Being able to continue to discover who God has made me to be and yet fulfil more purposes He has for my life!
6. I love my personal space

Bad:
1. Have to do all my own laundry
2. Have to take the rubbish (garbage) out
3. There's no one to help me clean my home lol..
4. When something electrical or technical breaks...I have to call my dad or another male that knows

Worse:
1. It get's lonely sometimes and I do miss having someone in my life to share hopes and dreams with
2.When I get constantly ask 'where's your boyfriend/fiance, husband', when you go to a function...classic example: I went on holiday with my parents over christmas and so many people asked me why I was alone??? And directly asked me ' So where's your boyfriend?' and 'So why's a beautiful girl like you not married? Haven't found the right one yet???'......I am not single by choice...it just hasn't happened yet...but I beleive it will one day...my response to the questions from enquiring strangers (usually by the 3rd person that's asked) is just to smile and change the subject lol.

I think there are positives and negatives to both sides.

the good: having someone to share life with

the bad: not sure, maybe it's easier to get into arguments or get upset with others than get upset with yourself?

reasons why you might be single, thought this was pretty funny

Have entertained the notion that "the Axe Effect" is real

Own tie-dyed gym clothes

Purchased your dining room set with Marlboro Miles

Have written poetry inside a Starbucks

Have a ferret on your shoulder

Hug amusement park mascots

Initiate line dances

Have only one pickup line: "Why the long face?"

Scream out Wheel of Fortune answers

Call your therapist from work on speakerphone

Begin stories with, "I'm not a stalker, but ..."

Know someone who knows someone who knows the Geico caveman

I'm not a stalker, but I know where you live, and I watch you sleep.
