I'm not single. In fact last time I was single was 5 years ago. But honestly, the bottom line is that yes, there are good things about being in a relationship, but there are also bad things!
Just like there are positives and negatives to being single.
Being in a relationship means you ALWAYS have to consider someone elses feelings. Yes you get the company and the cuddles. But you also get the arguments, and the compromises. There are many things I enjoy about being in a relationship, but there are also many things that are harder now than when I was single.
To be honest, I wasn't looking for a relationship. I was quite happy being single and if you'd have asked me then I would have said I didn't want a relationship, it would be too much effort, I wasn't really interested in boys or sex, I was too shy, no-one would ever like someone like me etc etc.
But then a person came along and it just felt right and I fell into it almost by accident.
So yes, you single people - look at the positives. I love my relationship, but relationships are HARD WORK! There are times I'd love to be single!
