Your current relationship vs being single?

How does it compare? Better, worse, same? Weigh the pros and cons, and tell me why you answered in whatever direction you choose.

Being in a relationship for sure, especially this one. But I already told you that yesterday.

Being in a relationship hands down!
There is absolutely nothing better than being with your soul mate.Nothing.
Being single is a little fun at first,but it gets old REALLY quickly.Next thing you know,you are out 'looking' again.

I mean,think about it...
what do all your single friends spend all their time doing?
Trying to find someone.
Being single isnt all people try to make it out to be.
There are only so may parties and get togethers,only so many 'girls nights out' you can go to.After a while you realize that you dont feel 'whole' without that special someone there.There's something missing.....that something is the person God has for you.Unless you are called to celibacy,I think its true for everyone.

Its like the difference between Christmas and Martin Luther King day

I hope our relationship falls under the 'Christmas' category....and not the other way around

It is certainly much better than being single.

Though it is only so because of the real care and bond that exists between us.

It is hard for me because I am such an independent person, and as this is my first relationship, I am still getting to grips with how some of my priorities are really changing. They are no longer focused on me but they are changing so a lot of the time they are focused on him.

I suppose this is what God meant when he says that marriage is supposed to be a small glimpse of his love for us- that it is focused on bettering us rather than himself.

Being in the relationship I am now is far better than being single. When I was single, I longed to be in a relationship and now that I am in one, I don't long to be single again.

My relationship vs. being single can't be compared. To be in a relationship with my girlfriend has blessed me in every way and she makes me to a better person.

I like being in a relationship better than being single, but it doesn't seem extremely different to me yet. I guess that is because we were friends first and also because it is a new relationship and long distance. The main thing that is different now is that I am trying to have time with him every day even when I am really busy with school and other things. When we were "just friends", if I had a big assignment to work on, that basically meant we wouldn't be chatting that day.

I honestly enjoyed being single when I was. But, that was after I'd gotten out of a long-term relationship that was going nowhere. In the time that I was single, I grew in many ways- in my faith and relationship with God, in my independence and becoming more outgoing, building closer relationships with my friends...and I wouldn't change that for the world.
I think it all helped to prepare me for THIS relationship. To be the girlfriend/future wife I'm supposed to be. Because now that I am with Andy, I never wanna be single again. He inspires me in so many ways, makes such a positive impact on my life!

I don't know if anyone who's in a relationship would say "I'd rather be single" LOL. God has blessed me so much through my relationship with Chris. It's not just lovey feelings that I've discovered. I've definitely grown as a person, changed my priorities, etc. Chris and I have been joined at the hip since our first week together, and while I certainly enjoy my 'me' time every now and then, as well as girls' nights out and stuff, just the knowledge that I've got a man, who's arms I fit into perfectly, makes me feel whole...

My current relationship is DEFINATELY the best ever.
And certainly better than being single.

It's great to have someone I can share everything with.
When something happens good or bad I want to talk to him.

Sooooo much better. I love having a companion. And the unconditional love...sigh. lol

 

[Macrina]

If the relationship weren't better than being single, I wouldn't be in the relationship.


But that's a function of this particular relationship, you know? When I was single, I wasn't pining away to be dating someone. If it's not the right "someone," then I'd rather not bother.

definitely better! i love having him as my best friend and wouldn't change anything for the world (with the exception of moving us closer to one another )

 

[CoolMom6]

WAAAAAAAYYYY better. I had prayed and prayed for my God-given future husband, and He knew just what He was doing.

 

[Diana7]

i used to love being single, and then i got with my guy and now i realize that i love love love being in a relationship with my babe!!! life is better with him by my side its as simple as that!!! so def being in a relationship is more nice!!!

 

[Gardener101]

Undecided.

It changes from day to day, if not minute by minute

 

[ImperialPhantom]

I don't know if anyone who's in a relationship would say "I'd rather be single" LOL...

Oh I've talked to a few. Mostly they were in real life though, because in real life, I completely ignore what they say, and I read their tonality and body language when they say it. Either that or they told me via IM, when it was confidential.

My current relationship is definitely better!
