I think what she means is that no guy goes over to his gf's house for dinner (or comes home from work at the end of the day, if they're living together) expecting a bowl of cereal for dinner. LOL! It's funny, when you look at it from that perspective. Maybe cereal as a late-night snack while watching a movie together, but I don't think the way to a man's heart is via bowls of cereal for dinner.
Exactly. As I have said many times, the way to a man's heart is sex and fried chicken.
Single men are the unhappiest? Are you freaking serious? Most of my co-workers and friends who are married absolutely envy my lifestyle- they are some of the unhappiest people I know because they live in a prison.
Like I said, two of my co-workers are going to Vegas and I am going with then. My married co-worker asked his wife if he could go and she said NO The whole idea of some woman determining if you can go or not go someplace is LUDICROUS!
May be a difficult concept, but many married people don't take separate vacations, particularly not with single coworkers of the opposite sex. Doesn't mean the wife is controlling. I'd wonder why a married man would think his wife would be okay with him vacationing with single females rather than her.
I think I still have 2 packs in my utility drawer, myself. However, lately they have been going to the remote controls for the TV or cable box.
Let me see:
I can come and go as I please. (Although I still do that).
If I feel like still being in my pajamas at 3pm on a Sunday I can do that.
I can go without makeup or dressing up.
If I feel like going away for the weekend at a moment's notice, I don't need to check in with anyone about it.
I sleep according to my own work schedule and not someone else's.
If I want to occupy all of my time with a dozen hobbies, I can do that.
Granted, I still do these things even in a relationship. The main thing is finding the right person who still lets you be....you. I realized I'm happier having someone to care for than being alone, but I learned to love being alone while single also.
I don't remember the exact place I read this, but it has stuck with me...about the happiest people...
Unmarried women are the happiest, followed by married men, then married women, and the unhappiest people are single men. It was a scale about life satisfaction...

Exactly. Many married are super happy and want to have the kind of relationship where they actually act married. Imagine.
Mostly in the summer, it's around 75% of the time because it's so freaking hot where I live, and I love not having a hot, sweaty body next to me. I value the space in my bed!
I also love being single because I don't have to deal with the emotions a lot of relationships have--jealousy, sadness, anger, "does he love me?", etc.
I can put something away and not worry about it being in a totally different spot upon my return.
I can spend as much me time as I want on myself (love a cassia/brahmani hair treatment, doing my own nails, face masks, the list is endless!).
I can make plans without having to worry about interfering with a significant other's schedule!
I can eat when I want and where I want (Don't you hate when you want sushi and the other person wants a hamburger and fries! Someone is going to lose.)
Geez people, just answer what you LOVE about being single. What's up with all the minutia about women wanting to get married, etc, Jasper12 said DO OVER.
Start another topic about women who want to get married or have a relationship!

Yeah, the very best relationships are still fraught with all those insecurities...
