When it comes to romance, I had my fair share of heartaches, bad luck, stupid mistakes and regrets during my youth. Now that I am mature, I’m wondering whether it is better being alone than trapped in a bad relationship with a wrong person, in other words, all or nothing at all.
I’ve been single for more than ten years, not by choice but rather due to my poor health conditions. That gives me ample opportunities to ponder on the subject. I’ve realized that being alone is not the worst thing that could ever happen to a man.
So, is being alone actually better than trapped in a bad relationship?
You can do bad all by yourself. Don't need to be with someone and be unhappy. Besides from personal experience, I have felt the worse when I was with someone right next to me and was unhappy and felt alone.

Alone, hands down especially if abuse is occurring and one is truly trapped.
Having been both... alone is much, much better. Being trapped in a bad relationship is like being in a prison. Being alone is like being on the open road with the world as your oyster.
It is absolutely better to stay single than be in a bad relationship. You can feel much more lonely partnered with someone you just can't connect with than you'd ever feel all by yourself. And if abuse is in any way, shape or form a factor, than the victim should always, ALWAYS get out ASAP.
