I'm single and have been enjoying it, to my surprise.
What about you?
I enjoy the advantages. I take the good with the bad.
Do you feel like an oddball in this culture that celebrates Valentine's Day and gives tax breaks to couples?
Not an "oddball". No
Are you putting up with being single until you're in a relationship?
No other way to do it.
Do you feel lonely and long for companionship?
Occasionaly, but getting out and about helps.
What is the likelihood you'll be in a relationship or be married?
All I can do is the best I can and appreciate my strengths and try to improve on my weaknesses. Hopefully, if potential partners see that they would like it.
Are you the envy of your married friends?
The unhappily married ones.
What do you hate about being single?
Wanting to go to events where it would be awkward to go alone (a nice resturaunt, the movies, performing arts type stuff, etc.) so I end up not going.
What do you love about it?
I'm single and have been enjoying it, to my surprise.
What about you?
I'm not loving it. I've been single most of my life and out of a relationship for about seven months now. I'd really like to find that right person and soon!
Do you feel like an oddball in this culture that celebrates Valentine's Day and gives tax breaks to couples?
I don't feel like an oddball, though sometimes it bothers me that among friends and family I'm ALWAYS the single girl.
Are you putting up with being single until you're in a relationship?
Pretty much. I see no other option.
Do you feel lonely and long for companionship?
Lately, yes.
What is the likelihood you'll be in a relationship or be married?
High, I hope. Realistically...I'm not so sure.
Are you the envy of your married friends?
Only when they are pissed at their husbands.
What do you hate about being single?
Not having someone to come home to and share the little moments in life with.
Real Talk, I love being single because it allows me to continually work on myself so when Ms. Right comes along, I'll know it. I won't have to second guess myself at all. I can truly say loneliness has never struck me at all because I have my goals and being with friends/family to keep me occupied. I come and go as I please and I don't have to put myself on the backburner for another person; that's not to say I won't mind compromise but only if it's for a woman I care for. I don't need a woman to complete me, I'm complete within myself. Due to the lack of quality women out there, I will remain single. I'd rather get it right the first time than have a bunch of failed relationships which will lead me to become jaded.
What about you? I am not enjoying being single. Not at all. I hate it. I want to be with a guy I love...badly. I want to kiss, cuddle... all that stuff. Unfortunately I haven't found the right guy yet
Do you feel like an oddball in this culture that celebrates Valentine's Day and gives tax breaks to couples? On some days. Particularly when people ask me "Why are you single? You are so pretty and accomplished...". Other days I take it in stride
Are you putting up with being single until you're in a relationship? Yes. I cannot imagine being happily single forever. My hope is to get coupled up
Do you feel lonely and long for companionship? Yes, but at the same time, I don't want just any companionship. I want only the right guy's companionship. Like others have said, it's better to be single and alone than to be with the wrong person.
What is the likelihood you'll be in a relationship or be married? I hope it is high. I have been working particularly hard at it in the last couple of months.
Are you the envy of your married friends? Not that I know of, they probably won't tell me
What do you hate about being single? Lack of intimacy, sex. I miss not being able to cuddle.
What do you love about it? Honestly, nothing. I can't say I am having a ball being single, dating different partners etc. I think I am one of those people that was meant to be coupled up. I can't wait for this drought to end.
I'm single and have been enjoying it, to my surprise.
What about you? I am single and i like it.
Do you feel like an oddball in this culture that celebrates Valentine's Day and gives tax breaks to couples? No, Valentines Day is cute and i don't care that they get tax breaks, if any.
Are you putting up with being single until you're in a relationship? I would rather wait for the right person then spend my time with the wrong person.
Do you feel lonely and long for companionship? Some days i feel lonely, some days i miss companionship, but most days i am grateful for being independent/single and living life with the remote control
What is the likelihood you'll be in a relationship or be married? It is possible because i want it to happen.. eventually with the right person.
Are you the envy of your married friends? Probably. My married friends are insecure around me sometimes when it single stuff is brought up. I don't let to much slip with married women cause their all gossipers :P
What do you hate about being single? Lack of Intimacy.
What do you love about it? More focused and concentrated towards self developing myself and have the time to be able to achieve my personal goals.

Do you feel lonely and long for companionship? Yeah but like I said I learn to do with out
What is the likelihood you'll be in a relationship or be married? NO relationships anytime soon, and guaranteed I will NEVER get married. My personality is too caustic and abrasive
