I don't want to date or get married unless that person brings/adds significant value to my life cause I'm already happy on my own.

Forget what’s better. If you’re single, make the best of it. If you are in a relationship, make the best of it.

*"Don't let getting lonely make you reconnect with toxic people. You shouldn't drink poison just because you're thirsty."* - so simple, yet so profound... there can be found tremendous healing in sitting with one's feelings of loneliness - being curious and honoring it, instead of running from it.

[Me]

It’s better to be single than be in a bad relationship, just for the sake of not being alone. The loneliest I’ve ever felt was in my marriage.

[noone]

I’d rather be alone for the right reasons, than with someone for the wrong reasons.

[captbosco]

I love being alone., It is not "loneliness" it is "solitude" and solitude is peace.

[alexscott]

Married people don't actually live longer, it just feels like longer.

[blossoming_of_lotus_flower]

1. Developing your authentic self in solitude (reflection)
2. More time for family and friends
3. More freedom to do what you want
4. More extra resources to share to others

[stephaniea]

My depression and anxiety have improved tremendously since I've been single. Unhealthy relationships are WAY worse than being single. It's better to walk away than to spend years in a terrible relationship because you don't want to be alone. Also, I think being single allows you to focus on your own family, friends, hobbies, and goals. It seems like many people lose themselves in relationships and they forget to have their own identity. Being single allows you to be your own person and it's very freeing.

[paulwangler]

In my experience, being single is the only way to heal your inner wounds. It's just you and the wounds, no distractions

[devilslayer]

People need to understand being alone and lonely are two different things

[michaelduggan]

I've had many people in my life ask me why I never married . Many of them were cheating on their spouses and very unhappy being married but still had the time to judge me for not getting married and making me feel like. an odd ball .

[anastasia]

my parents were together for 50 years and they hated each other. Marriage is not guaranteed happiness.

[carolmiller]

I've been single all my life and don't regret it. I thought the only reason to marry was to have children & always thought there were too many people already. I listened to complaints from married friends, watched them divorce & struggle to support children on single income. I'm an introvert, and enjoy sharing events with friends & family. Some may say I'm selfish but we only have one life and I'm extremely happy with it.

[JL-djek]

Being single is a super blessing... it free you up from all the stress and heart aches created by your partner. take that from a 10 years married guy here.

[joshuahoover]

After twenty-eight years of marriage, three years of crappy dating, I've realized that I am so much better off and happier alone. I really truly enjoy not having another person in my life, outside of friends. Never in a million years would I have thought this, but oh my God it's so nice
