^^^ Great idea, Fab!
I like the fact that I don't have to worry about anyone else's social calendar and I only have to go out with people that I want to go out with. If for any reason I don't want to go out, it isn't a big deal. I'm not interfering with anyone else's plans for the evening. On the flip side, if I just want to go out and grab a drink with a friend, I can do that too!

Here's one thing that I enjoy about being single:

Not having to ask someones opinion on any major life decisions. If I decide today that I want to move to California and become a video girl I dont have anything holding me back
I did exactly this a year ago. Except I moved out of California, lol. It's not just asking, it's totally reconsidering and reevaluating too.

You don't have to sit through crappy tv shows that you pretend to like - you can watch whatever you want

You can sit through your crappy TV shows without commentary about how awful the show you are watching is.

My ex used to love watching America's Next Top Model, which I find torturing to watch. Anyway, I was never very good at hiding thoughts. At first I tried the whole 'ok i'll pretend like it's not bad'. But eventually, she started watching it in another room on her computer because every time it was on I would say something like "why do you watch this? it's so bad compared to project runway."

He's got like 10 friends and I met him once over a year ago. That would just be...weird. I feel like such a loser.
I think you should add him! What do you have to lose?? I am in the same situation sort of... I have a huge crush on my neighbor. We see each other from time to time in the elevator of our apartment building, but it's never enough time to actually have a real conversation, you know?

I actually met her parents first because they were checking out the building for her, and I offered to show them what my apartment looked like, so I know her parents like me, lol (this was before I knew their daughter was absolutely adorable). Anyway, I may or may not have gotten her last name from looking at a packing sitting outside her door. And I may or may not have used it to look her up on facebook, but I haven't added her yet either.

Zophie, I'll do it if you do it!

Oh I was half joking... I'm not sure it's actually good idea.

But here is another one: you get to actually hang out and see your friends!

I consider myself semi-single...anyways, I just wanted to add

Being single is good because you don't have to share ice cream or chocolates. Also, you can eat popcorn in bed while watching crappy downloaded tv shows.

.....OK I FINALLY have my only single girlfriend coming to town, and we are gonna go clubbing, yoohoo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So the good thing is to have so many options ahead ! And I donīt have to think anymore "Am I gonna get stuck for the rest of my life with a sucky sex life ???!" (when I was with my ex).

Hi guys!! I was panicking for a moment thinking that this thread was gone, gone but it is so good to find you all here!!

Glad to be back!!!

Love being single because I do not have to worry about hiding the Christian Louboutin shoe boxes that I keep buying, without worrying about getting the "judgmental look". Yehaw!!!!!

My mentor definitely has said to me "I don't understand why my wife needs $600 shoes". hah.

I love being single because I can eat whatever I feel like, with out having to have to give up food cravings just because the SO "doesn't feel like sushi tonight" or "would rather not have pizza".
