After a 7 year break up, I dreaded being alone and unhappy. I realised that so many people live their lives relying on other people to make them happy and associate being happy with being with someone. So that causes so many people to settle for the fear of the unknown and period of sadness.

But after a few months being single again, I seen and now 100% know that the only person who can make you truly happy and content in yourself every day is you. Learn to love and accept and be happy in yourself and don't rely on meeting someone to make you happy. When you do meet someone, they will obv make you happier but there isn't the same reliance there anymore as the sole source of happiness.

Being single? ...some of the pros ..you can go and be and do what you want ( that alone covers a whole pile )

Cons ? .. loneliness is probably the biggest con..yes you can go to the cinema..gigs ..parties etc but there is always the fear that you go home alone.

However if a person doesn't enhance your life then you are better off being alone..being on your own it's important to remember that you and you alone are responsible for your own happiness..if a person is on their own and can remember that then they're good to go .

Being single is ok, but it depends what the alternatives are.

If it’s being in a controlling, abusive relationship then I’d prefer to be single (actually I’d have preferred to be dead).

If it’s being with someone you love and who loves you back for being who you really are, I’d prefer a relationship.

I was reminded only this morning why it's better to be on your own ...was not ..or ever will be ...a mind reader but anyway..being on your own has its advantages..that's why for me it's so important to have that " connection" ...a person has to enhance your life ...it's futile if they don't ...you're swimming against the tide from the get go .

I'm quite content and happy being single. I don't feel lonely. But ask me again when I'm the only one that lives in my house it may be a different answer. I'll be a lot older by then too.

I love sharing myself and my time and being around another so I'm happy either way. Be it an evening or a night or two or more.

I guess I just go with the flow of things and don't have a want either way.

There's a quote I like.

'Be with someone who feel like freedom and loves you without chains. Because love isn't holding someone back or using guilt to make them stay. Love is freedom and they freely choose you.'

I love the 'they freely choose you' part.

My friend freely chooses me, freely chooses to spend their time with me. So does a lover, so does anyone that becomes or is more.

I see life as a series of people freely choosing. Just like I freely chose to do. You can't make someone freely choose you, you just carry on regardless and if it happens it happens.

I miss the romance of dating. I miss the sex, the cuddles and kisses.

I don’t miss anything else if I’m honest. I don’t have the time to give to a relationship at the moment. Maybe that might change in the future, but if not then so be it.

I've been single my whole life and there are times when I do get lonely and wish I had someone special to do things with.

But I am also so used to only thinking about myself, doing things that only I want to do, having my own time and space... I do worry that introducing someone in to my life would change that. It could be for the better though.

On the whole I'm happy being single, love the independence and chance to make decisions based on what I want to do. However, it would be lovely to have a partner if I'm feeling unwell and want someone to cuddle up to or want to go places together.

Can't see me ever having a full time committed relationship though. Oh no !

Always been single really, somewhat resigned to the fact I probably always will be now. It does get lonely which makes for stupid decisions, one of which I made in the last few months knowing quite well it wouldn't end well. I'm fiercely independent, I'm not one who needs a man to help out around my home and i cant ever see myself living with someone. That said someone who gets me and to have some fun nights every now and again would be lovely. But to answer original question happy ish yes.

Yes. Though I could not live happily without good company. I would never live in a monogamous relationship again. The one I did live in was loving, caring and successful but I am beyond child bearing/rearing age and financially secure and independent. I'm certainly beyond chocolate box romance.

Being single with a range of friends is the secret to a happy life.

After getting out of a long-term relationship, yes I was quite happy being single and doing my own thing for a while. But soon enough I started missing that companionship, the non-sexual pysical contact that casual encounters (pre Fab discovery) just wouldn't do for.

So to answer

Short-term, yes. Long-term, no.

At the moment yes. I have too much else on to be able to commit to another person in the way I would want. I can only forsee myself getting more fiercely independant and alone, but also I do have a little corner of me that will ache for the romance so maybe not forever. Who knows.

I’m 60/40 currently. I like being single, the ability to do what I like, when I like is addictive. With a new job and flexible hours I do feel for the first time in my life I have a lot more control and freedom.

However I do miss having someone who I can rely on, even something as simple as telling me what we are having for tea. Currently all decisions are mine it’d be nice to have someone else’s opinion or their choices.

I’m doing a lot of dating currently, so it’s nice meeting these ladies but I’ve not found anyone I’d happily give up my freedom for currently.

So I’ll probably be single for quite some time.

"Been single a while it's ok, but obviously you miss them couple type things to do with a partner. If someone came along where both thats the key both had that amazing connection sparks chemistry lust etc definitely wouldn't rule out being in relationship again be a bit of a fool too turn down that amazing opportunity

Tbh the connection you speak of is everything , it doesn't matter what others think , the main thing is you both have that ..as you say .." amazing connection "..if that's there.. as the song says ...nothing else matters

I don't have any downside to any of those tbh , l would put going asleep and waking up on your own more of a downside to being single than airports or going to dinner simply because both are something to look forward to but loneliness is always there when you go asleep on your own as a single.

Actually I am.. I've been single for 6 years after my divorced and although at the time, it was scary at the prospect I'm gonna be alone but moving on 6 years, I've adapted and I now enjoy my independence.. not to say it won't happen in the future but I'm happy with my life so far

Generally happy, and I think I’m probably too used to only having myself to be answerable to now.

However, I do miss certain aspects of relationships, like many others have said.

What does give me pause for thought is some of the Fab couples I know. They seem to have much more “free” and honest with each other. Also, they are much better at giving each other space to do their own things (I’m talking generally here, not the obvious)!

I do look longingly at those people sometimes

Most of the time. There are times when I miss the intimacy of sharing everything with someone and wanting to. Those everyday moments that build you closer together .. but I don't miss the rows that occur out of nowhere... And that can last an age.

I go through stages where I love it and stages where I don’t and think maybe I want a relationship.

But I’ve been very badly burned and don’t think I could ever trust anyone again. So single it is.

Let's put it this way. I felt incredibly lonely and unhappy in my previous relationship. Since becoming single, I am 100% happier person and more in tune with myself. Though being single has its ups and downs sometimes

My single lifestyle suits me, I love my independence and doing what works for me. I don't know if things will change when the kids leave home and I'll be literally on my own every night, there's a few years until that happens though.

I love not sharing a bed with someone who snores loudly, pulls the cover off you, pushes you off the bed and is too bloomin warm. I think the best part of being single is having your own bed and doing what ever you like

Been single for so long now j don’t know any different. It’s almost impossible to date a trans woman into women romantically

I could date guys in a split second no problem finding them but the majority just want me as a secret gf away from friends / family. Who wants to put up with a spineless partner like that

I feel nothing about being single. Not happy, not sad. It is what it is. And if I were pushed to give a binary sad/happy answer, I'd say it's better to be happy as a single than sad in a relationship that's not right for you.

I was single mostly for 17 years and was accepting of it, not happy, but wasn't prepared to have my children or me hurt again as my husband did. I was an independent woman and knew I'd be single for the rest of my life.

Youngest moved out and decided to try again and then etc Buff. I fell for him instantly and after nearly 8 months I still can see the irony. Within 2 days of meeting him the enormity of the situation was clear to me and knew I'd marry him in an instant.

So for me being single was completely normal but was never truly happy but accepting at the time x

Been single for over 10 years now and can't really imagine being in a relationship ever again. I hardly ever interact with women on a day-to-day basis so zero chance of meeting anyone anyway. Used to it now but lonely at times.

"After a 7 year break up, I dreaded being alone and unhappy. I realised that so many people live their lives relying on other people to make them happy and associate being happy with being with someone. So that causes so many people to settle for the fear of the unknown and period of sadness.

Anyways relationships are never guranteed to make anyone happy, it depends on the person you go for but even so its a lot of work to maintain a relationship which I notice most people in general (not just in here) don't like to mention.
