That's why it would be much more sensible for people to live seperately. I've already said it in the other thread. They can be together whenever they want but each person has their own space and pays their own bills.
No thanks. If I want a warm man in the middle of the night, I want to roll over, not get in the car.
Then there's no perfect solution. I would rather live seperately. The moments together must be much better.
My boyfriend thinks the same way, and let me tell you there are not a lot of women out there who are going to buy into the whole "I love you, but want to live by myself til the day I die" scenario. We are few an far between.

I wonder how a duplex situation would work. Technically the same building, but two separate residences.
That would probably be idea for me. Plus, I can sneak in in the middle of the night for nookie
You know, it's one thing for you guys to not want to get married - just don't.
But quit spouting off things about marriage that are not true and have no basis in fact.
It just makes you look bad.
Happier I doubt it. Longer and healthier perhaps because single guys I'm guessing are more likely to go out, have fun and do stuff (whether that's drinking, partying, being promiscuous whatever) but I'm sure they are VERY happy doing it. However, I wouldn't believe those stats one bit because they are leaving out a big gray area. The LTR couples. Are men in a LTR counted at all? They aren't married but they aren't single. Are men who are in relationships less than a year counted as single? Too many factors. Married men aren't going to be out doing stuff to the degree that a single man would usually.

By the time a single person, male or female, has been going out "partying" every week for 15 years or so, the novelty wears off (ages 21-36).
In fact, for most people life gets kind of lonely it that's all they've got to show for all those years of singledom.
They wake up one day and realize all that "freedom" ain't exactly what they thought it was back at 21.
"But if I was a single man
Alone and out there on the loose
Well I'd be looking for a woman like you.
I'd take a gold band on my hand
Over being a single man
Cause honestly I don't know what I'd do
If I'd never met a woman like you."
