I Want to Be Single For a While

We have been aspiring to succeed in relationships since the beginning of time. Everyone base their happiness on being in a successful relationship.

From an early age, we grow and watch adults struggle with this tradition call partnership. Our mothers prepare us to become wives, everyone expect us to walk down the aisles as if it's the only way to be happy. The odd aunt that's unmarried is the butt of everyone's jokes. She's the example that our mother use, "you don't want to be like your aunt." Is it possible that the spinster aunt is one of the individualistic people that doesn't conform to society's rule and found happiness on her own accord. Did she break out of the mould and succeeded in finding something that society shun. Could it be that being alone and enjoying your own company is not as bad as what our mother portray.


After countless unsuccessful relationship and another one looming. The single life is very appealing at the moment.

I enjoy being single. There's a lot of freedom in it. Most men I've encountered just want sex all the time. A lot of married women I know have husbands who expect them to do everything while they just watch tv and do whatever they want to. They end up dominated by their husbands. I'd like to get married at some pt if I find the right one though, someone to go through life with.

To have a companion rather than having to be a mother.

@Random1Thoughts I get irritated with women who won't stand up for themselves and let their husbands run all over them.

Many women in my family are extactly the same as what you have described. It's very sad to watch.
You don't need to be in a relationship to be fulfilled. Those spinsters were single for various reasons. Some were lesbians, some didn't want to leave their families, some were eccentric, some didn't want to be with men. Be single. Try it and see how it feels. Good luck to you.

Thank you and I intend on being single and enjoying every moment.

@Random1Thoughts women in past generations always have been.
