The Good The Bad The Best The Worse of Being a Single!

[ChristopherMichael]

Good: Can hang around in my boxers watching cartoons and eating cereal as long as I want, whenever I want.

Bad: Feeling like a third (or fifth) wheel around married people and being teased (in a friendly way) by them.

Best thing: Having time to get to know God and myself better, and have God fashion me into a better man.

Worst thing: Lack of companionship.

The worst thing about being single is that when im in a bad mood i dont have anyone to take it out on.

 

[J0Y]

Worst - seeing all the blissfully happy couples wander round the supermarket with their trolley doing their weekly shop....while you walk round with your basket and your 'Pasta for one' LOL....

Best - Im not fixated on someone so God has a clearer 'connection' to me!

 

[ilavjesus]

GOOD:I CAN LIVE FREELY....FLY SOMEWHERE..FLIRT ANYONE,
BAD:BORING SOMETIMES...NEED SOMEONE TO BE A SHOULDER,.

 

[Viva]

GOOD: serve God freely and focus on moving further with your dreams without a 2nd opinion
BAD: you can feel lonely at times but it's alright.. as long as we have GOD

good things about being single: free to go anywhere,work as much as you like,doing as you like when you want to.knowing that all i worked for in my apartment will be mine, i have an issue in break up laws when you have to split all your posessions if you split up with a person.
good: lifetime of love and happiness, someone to share thoughts,feeelings and life in general with.someone by yourside that is like a constant best friend, that makes you happy and brings out the best in you.

Good: You can serve God freely (not tied down to someone elses plans or goals), you only have to take care of yourself, you can spend more time with others, you can make your own decisions, being single helps you to grow in God because a season of waiting is a season of growing.

Bad: People are always trying to match you up with someone, people think you're despret for love, watching all your friends getting married and being so happy for them but deep down being a little sad that it's not you.

I'm not saying people who are married are weak, but I do think it takes a stronger person to be single. You have to go into the world, just you and God and no one else. This means you need to be more aware of the presence of God in your life as He may be speaking to you through many people instead of mostly one person. You need to depend on GOD to lead and guide you and in some ways that's harder because it doesn't seem as concrete. But the more he leads you the clearer it gets.

I think being single is a blessing and that people should charish it. Be open to marriage but don't let consuming thoughts of it ruin the blessing of singleness.

Good: I can serve the Lord freely and drop everything to go wherever He calls me at a moments notice
Bad: I have no partner to drop everything and go with me. It's lonely sometimes

 

[knorrox]

The worst: There is?

Tha bad: uhm...not sure. maybe getting used to not dating after dating for like...ever but you get used to it though so that doesnt really count. The waiting...not knowing when I will meet him.

The good: I save airtime(I save money because I make less calls for shorter amount of time)

The best: Knowing that God is grooming my husband for me so that when I am ready....well, we will happen. Leraning how to stay pure and holy with less temptation.

 

[dothackzero]

The Good: Wait, is there any good?
The Bad: I'm lonely most of the time.
The Worst: I don't have a girlfriend to confort me about my lack of girlfriend...

 

[lindapinda]

Good: I can learn to be totally dependent on God for all my intimacy needs. I think there is a good time for being single.
Bad: I have no fleshly person to tell my most secret secrets to, to share my life with, to support in his quests, to spoil and cook for and love, to be loved and adored by. I guess that's where God comes in. I tell him my most secret secrets, share my life with him, love him, adore him, and in return be loved and adored by him. And his love is perfect, unlike that of any man. I guess his intimacy is one I'll always need, no matter whether I'm married or single.

 

[Pheonix]

Good: You don't have to clean up if you don't want to. And we wont get into the toilet seat issue.
Bad: No one around to do all the things you hate the most, but have to do anyway once in a while.
Worst: echoooooooooooooooo!!!!

 

[Robert1857]

Good thing about being single: I can drop my dirty laundry wherever I want in the house.

Bad thing about being single: I have to gather it back up myself.

 

[Mulehide]

Good: I can do whatever I want whenever I want
Bad: No one to share life's little moments with

 

[suviheli]

good: I can go freely and nowadays I enjoy have a rest after working day: sitting listening classic music
bad: nobody is waiting fo rme sharing life with me. now I feel sad because nearest people are already dead.
to believe and meet other people in church are more and more important for me

The Good = Knowing, feeling, and relying on a real foundation/ provider- God

The Bad = Not experiencing love in the flesh by my husband, like that love I receive from the one above.

The Best = Able to grow and change completely without compromising a relationship.- Christ Inspired

The Worst = Not able to know what a healthy relationship would be like allowing me to make big changes while still loving me + remaining faithful like my father does.
