Whats worse is they bring along another single who has no chance with you, and you have to put up with them hitting on you all night, and the awkwardness of everyone trying to push him on you when you're trying to push him away.
I got to thinking today while walking around the mall. Up till now I've been looking at what I'm missing out on being married. But today I realized what benefits come with being single. I don't have to consult with another how I spend my money, what I can wear, what I can do, where I can go and for how long. My mom can't leave my stepdad for two weeks because she wouldn't be there to cook him dinner and wait on him hand and foot. I have freedom. And this year I think I'll work on enjoying my life for once instead of striving as hard as I can to make others happy, that don't even appreciate it. This year I'm not going to let anyone judge me or control me. I've walked on eggshells trying to please others for way too long.
