I think it depends on the person and at what stage of inner healing they are at

Personally I am doing better single because my attachment issues are still far too much
Nebula · 41-45, F
@caccoon well that's something that is pretty well ingrained in you from childhood, so its a hard thing
caccoon · 36-40
@Nebula it sure is! But being single/dating a bit is really giving me space to explore and heal this stuff
Nebula · 41-45, F
@caccoon you're learning what works for you and what doesn't, so that's awesome
goliathtree · 56-60, M
well, after 35 years of wedded blitz, I waffle a bit, but then again it is easy to romanticize the old days when things were wild...so who actually knows?
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@goliathtree blitz? 😅
goliathtree · 56-60, M
@Degbeme that was NOT a typo.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@goliathtree Knowing you I know it isn`t.

That really depends on the relationship. Being in a great relationship is better than not. But I honestly believe 95% of relationships aren't great so statistically being single is the better choice. I also believe you don't need a relationship to be happy.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@FeetAreFantastic yeah, very true
Matt85 · 36-40, M
when you have love...a relationship is beautiful.
Matt85 · 36-40, M
@Nebula it can happen
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Matt85 🥰

They each have their own problems. But as I get older I am grateful not to be alone.
ShenaniganFoodie · 36-40, M
mmmmm, Being single for many years = I was happy & did what I wanted.


Currently ( 3 months ) Now with a lady = Never believed I would feel this way again. Very content, affectionate, empathetic, nurturing, forgiving & fun loving

You can be lonelier in a relationship than by yourself sometimes
Degbeme · 70-79, M
I been married so long I don`t remember what single was like.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Degbeme well it's different now too, dating and how people treat each other, it seems a lot less respectful
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Nebula I don`t know if I could do any sort of dating now. I hear too many horror stories.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Degbeme yeah, I'm scared hahaha

Depends on the person
basilfawlty89 · 36-40, M
Relationship, but only a happy one.
An unhappy relationship is worse than being single.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@basilfawlty89 well yeah
basilfawlty89 · 36-40, M
@Nebula in my experience, people don't spend long enough getting to know someone before getting involved. Then they're with someone incompatible.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@basilfawlty89 yeah or they choose a partner for shallow reasons
Convivial · 26-30, F
Both have the advantages..
