So you're single...
What do you like/dislike about being single? How long have you been? Share your stories!
For me, I've been single for a while...since 9th grade...and I'm a Junior in college now...haha. I don't mind it. I have freedom to do what I want but I wouldn't mind being in a relationship, just waiting for someone to come along I guess! I'm also pretty picky, so I guess that doesn't help. Oh well!
Your turn!

Single! I date a lot but I always seem to end up this way. I don't mind though. I like only having to worry about myself. I guess I don't really have the energy to keep up with another person.

I've been single for a year now, just over actually. Right now I'm loving it. It was an abusive relationship (not physically, but even so) so I'm in no hurry to get back into anything! I'm just enjoying not having anyone but me to worry about.

I'm single and I like it. I'm in love with a guy I couldn't have anyway and that's tough sometimes but it also means I'm just not interested in anyone else.
But I'm not really good with relationships anyway. The whole sharing my time with someone else always starts to annoy me pretty soon.

I am fourteen and it never really occurs to me to even call myself single, haha. My mum told me yesterday that I need a boyfriend or something, just so I can wear pretty clothes when I go out. I'll wear pretty clothes for myself, thanks.

I saw "Calling all" and I thought it'd be "Calling all cars" but it was "Calling all singles" haha. Then I was wondering how you're going to call every song that's been released as a single ever. Clearly lost the plot. Hai, I'm 15 and I've been single since birth.

I've been single. Reason? I like not having to worry about going about it. As in, the whole dating process. It feels like it'd be too much energy and right now I don't exactly have energy to spare. I'd rather focus on getting through high school and doing school work than being like some people I know and flunking classes because they'd rather be on the phone with their bf/gf for countless hours. I also like not having to respond to a guy about "Hey let's do this or let's do that." When I'm older and willing to put more time and energy into it, yes. I feel like when you're older you're more set on how you want to put aside the time and whatnot. Does that make sense? My mom hints at her wanting me to have one b/c "By the time I was your age I had already had a couple boyfriends." We're not the same person. :/ Also, what bugs me is girls in high school who are always "OMG! I am like in love. I think we're gong to get married. Oh boo, this is forever." What's the pressure?!?! No one's forcing you to find a husband! It's a different age, I want to take my time not waste it. Ha, that was long.

I really wish I'd had your mindset in high school. It would have saved me a lot of grief.

I was the same way in high school...pretty much. Yeah, I had crushes and all that, but my time was spent playing sports and hanging out with friends and family, and focusing on school, I didn't have time for a boyfriend...That's how I am right now too. I figure...if I'm going to land an internship in California in a year and a half I should focus on school and just wait til I move to find someone. No point in being in a relationship for a year and then leaving. I don't want to be held back, haha.

What's the pressure?!?! No one's forcing you to find a husband! It's a different age, I want to take my time not waste it. Sadly, that is exactly what they think. And what's even more sad is that most of them will never change. By the time they're 20, they're married and have at least two kids just because it's "the way things have to be". Ugh. I mean, I don't mind if that is what people really want and when it's obvious that they really enjoy it but there are so many people where it's obvious that they only do it because they think they have to.

I think I need to be single for a while. Last last few relationships have ended really badly and I know that it wasn't always the guy who was in the wrong. I really need to stand back and look at what I really want out of life and figure out if a man even has any place in that.

I been single all my life, never dated in high school, or at the lovely age of 26, never kiss, I guess I haven't found Mr. Right, even though I think I found him, he just don't know it yet.

I have a tomboy side of me that comes out a lot and I don't think that helps my situation at all...but whatever. I've decided I'm just gonna have a fun year and a half here in Minnesota and then move and hopefully find someone, lol

The guy I'd been with since October broke up with me out of the blue in May, but proceeds to call me about 3 times a week when hes been drinking to tell me he misses me. Not helping me sort myself out... We go to the same university, but in the holidays, we live 12 hours apart. I was willing to give the whole long distace over the summer thing a try. (Uni holidays are May-September) and he wasn't.
