Relationship, if its a healthy relationship. I seemed to find good fwbs when single tho..

Your perspective of how one is valued compared to the other will change as you age.

In my twenties?
Single. I didn't need a constant relationship getting in the way of things I want to learn about or experience. If she wanted to come along for the ride, great. Casual dating was fine.

Relationship? I did have a serious relationship. For all the wrong reasons. Time to settle down, I should be growing up, be more responsible, blah x3.

Once you are responsible to yourself, you respect yourself, you have your priorities established-then you might be ready for a relationship.

Now?
Single-do whatever I want, have nobody to answer to or consider when I am making decisions. Other than the dog, but she is totally laid back.

In a (the ultimate) Relationship? Most everything I do is considered carefully, as it affects my wife and daughter. If I have to compromise or sacrifice, I do. I have routine and stability. I fall asleep at night knowing that I have someone who can make decisions for me when I can't. I have trust with the one person I am completely comfortable with when it comes to my best interests.

In a relationship FTW for HTAM, but it's different for everyone.

Mescalito · 01-26-2012, 02:01 AM

Where I am sex is on tap.. no matter how ugly you think you are.. so it is great being single.

I've been in a relationship for over five years now and still going strong.. she is Thai so there is always something new to talk about and it is always pretty interesting.. sometimes pretty crazy.. and the sex is either good or amazing.

I had a girl for three years back in blighty and it got boring too quick because we got to know 'everything' about each other way too fast. Plus I was younger and always wanted some other pussay.

I like my own company and look forward to the days my miss' goes away.. not because I don't like her.. just because I like to have time for myself every now and again.. and by that I mean.. go on a trip.. contemplate.. meditate. After a few days I start to miss her though.

The women here.. like fucking 99% are smokin' hot and you know that you could probably get in there with at least half of them.. plus I'm foreign, young.. have blonde hair and blue eyes.. and I'm rather handsome IMHO. heh arrogance aside.. it really is easy to get some.. and very tempting. Can't have the best of both worlds though.. unless you count dreams!/ I do like to have a good ogle every now and again.. and by that I mean all the time. But she doesn't mind.. she does it too. Look but don't touch kinda agreement.

Anyway.. If I am ever single again.. I will probably go on a fuckathon for several weeks and then get back into a nice relationship again. It always seems like after a while of each.. the alternative seems better.. the grass is greener kinda thing. But I would probably chose relationships at this point in my life.. one.. because I'm in one.. and two.. because I like the deeper connection that can be achieved.. mentally and physically. She knows exactly what I like. Then again.. she knows how to press my buttons in a bad way also! Ok takecarenowbyebyethe n.

If anyone says single, I believe its just because they have never been in a good relationship. my girlfriend is my best friend and we have sex. I mean does iit get better then that? If i need my own time I can go into a different room, or for a walk and she doesn't have to follow me around.

I do understand the upside for being single. I enjoy going out the the bar, and try to bring someone home, that's pretty exciting.

adventure · 01-26-2012, 07:45 AM

and Mescalito I hope you are never single. You and your wife seem very happy together.

Wirikuta · 01-27-2012, 02:58 PM

with the wife I´ve had the last 6 years it´s easy- married

osirus2020 · 01-27-2012, 04:38 PM

The grass always seems greener, but It's always better on tap and that aint no shit.

Sir-Ex · 01-27-2012, 04:53 PM

I dunno what's what but I wanna live where mescalito lives

turmaline · 01-27-2012, 05:42 PM

I have committed myself to become a rogue hermit who lives in a cave..all this talk is too much.

Buds Bundy · 02-17-2012, 10:45 AM

i say single

why would i commit myself to one girl when i have two hands

Captain Cannabis · 02-17-2012, 03:14 PM

because a girl has two hands as well

krangs_androidbody · 02-17-2012, 04:04 PM

I'm single right now and enjoy it. Mostly, as others have mentioned, because I enjoy my own company. I go on dates, but I only want to be in a relationship when it "clicks" again.

Also, I think I might have Seinfeld-complex (e.g., only paying attention to one thing about a person that really bothers you, then dismissing their entire self... man, that sounds so terrible... shit)

I'm happy! As long as I'm happy I'd like either.

A relationship with both parties understanding and loving to the same capacity is an intense experience that I would happily repeat over and over regardless of the potential outcome (terrible break up, lifelong friends, lifelong lovers, etc.).

Qui-Bong Jinn · 02-19-2012, 01:06 PM

It would be nice to be in a relationship, I've been single for quite a while now, getting high and playing video games gets boring after a while.

Captain Cannabis · 02-19-2012, 03:38 PM

it sounds stupid but enjoy it while you can

I'm in a relationship and sometimes I just wish my partner would cheat on me so then I would have an excuse to break up with him. He's actually perfect for me but as someeone else mentioned it is hard to stay grounded with one person when you are so young. Which I am not 25 yet. Sometimes I dream of traveling the world etc, but then I also realize how incredibly lucky I am to have found the person I have, so it's hard to say!

adventure · 02-20-2012, 11:14 AM

Have you ever discuss this with him Pussywillow? maybe he wants to travel the world as well?!

Captain Cannabis · 02-20-2012, 01:27 PM

i am glad i travel with my girlfriend
