What do you like about being single and what do you dislike?

Zogi Out and Peace from Jesus (:->}

I hate the lonliness; the cooking and eating alone, going to bed alone, being short of money and having to work really hard to make it.

The best thing about being single is the "freedom" you enjoy. You come and go, you do as you wish. Nobody will say anything about it.

I struggle with:

• The constant buildup of the longing for someone to target with all I have to give;
• Longing to have someone to wrap my arms around at night (and the day);
• Constant sexual temptation;

I guess the ability to work late or leave early if I need has been O.K.  I've been able to save more, as well.

I struggle with the constant sexual temptation, having nobody to target with the most intimate thoughts/goals/dreams, the ever-increasing longing to have somebody to wrap my arms around.

I guess the extra room to work late or leave early is ok.  I have also been able to save a lot more than I was before.

"....I hate the lonliness; the cooking and eating alone, going to bed alone...."  Me too.

I think the ability to be able to work late or leave early is o.k.  I also love the quiet in the morning, since I'm pretty introverted.  I've been able to save more, since being single, too.

I also hate the loneliness, the going to bed alone, being short of money and always struggling to make it. But I am married and dont have freedom. Be wise and stay single.
