Do you think its better to be single than having a GF?

I found these interesting comments on the net about pros and cons on having a GF

good:
receiving and giving love and attentions constantly
being a little bit spoiled
have a good sexual life
never feel lonely
being able to talk to somebody about everything and in any moment you feel it
sharing even bad moments and always having support makes you stronger
when needy of cuddles, you will always have
being able to build something together
sharing a lifetime or moments of your life with somebody important and that you love it's the most amazing feeling


bad:
it basicly depends on the kind of relationship but most often it happens that

- daily routine could kill love
- cheating could happen very often, infortunately
- less freedom, jealousy could be annoying
- no common interests could lead to arguments
- arguing or even suffering because of silly misunderstanding
- having to call, text, email bla bla bla even when you dont really want to
- painful when breaking up a relationship

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Person 2:Pros: Nothing.
Cons : Takes up a lot of time and money, You have to do stuff for the other person, You have to sound like you actually care about what they talk about. You have to sound/act compassionit to them. They constantly annoy you and you have to put up with it. You have to deal a lot of crap you have absolutely no interest in. The list goes on.

Every relationship and every person is so vastly different from every other that the only sensible generalization I dare offer is:

the advantage of being single:
freedom.

the advantage of being in a relationship:
company.

If I were given a chance, i would grab it sincerely.

seriously, having a gf has more pro than being single.

I think it is actually very simple when you consider it. Having a great girlfriend who you enjoy spending time with and are in love with is a much better deal than being single.

However, being single is much better than having a girlfriend that you constantly fight with and overall makes you unhappy.

Especially those girls who like to flirt in a relationship. "Oh, but it makes me feel better about myself and blah... blah..." I don't tolerate that in relationships. Girls and their lame excuses for flirting around. Whores. <.<

/Agree

Funny, just thought about something that was said to me recently by my grandmother -- she was like hey hurry up and find a good boy or you will be an old maid. lol

To me there is no time limit when it comes to finding that right person.

And to be honest, I wouldn't mind being an old maid -- at least I know I will be a happy old maid.

Quoted for truth.

I guess this is what I needed. xD

Honestly, I’d like a GF. But part of me prefers to be alone. plus just by observing my parents, my sister and her boyfriend and the majority of people I work with or see at work and see how miserable the majority of them are, it just kind disenchants me out of the idea of a relationship.

I'm was told the same thing and got in bad relationship once because of it. I'm still told to have children so my mom can have grandbabies.

Having a GF is only good if you actually get along.
If you find yourself crying once a week or everynight, or wanting to kill yourself, the relationship ain't worth it.
Honest.

Yes I'd have to say that goes for anything actually, not just having a GF.

If you are single then you wont have a girl friend who wont let your dog sleep on the bed. I'm considering dumping her.

Pros: well sex if gonna be in the top 3 with cuddles and hanginout and having someone to be with and share interests and hobbies and just generally making you feel good.

Cons: breakups are a bitch. some girls are really clingy and needy and money grubbin. ex's dont like it when u hit on their friends and say nasty things behind your back.

I know theres alot more i could put but im too lazy. SO my personal opnion is I'd want a GF just not now.

Actually, i'm perfectly fine being alone. That's probably because all the women around me and in the vicinity act to... Brusk and man-like. I prefer a girlish girl over a self confident one...

Long story short, alone untill a miracle happens.

Hmmm, i have girlfriend for about 3 months now.
had some relationships before but i never had anything longer then six months.
i'm having serious problems with relationships cause i'm having problems adjusting myself. still i work on it. and yes i think having a girlfriend is better then being single, its just so much better to have someone to love, and someone to share your good and bad moments with.

It Depends!

Pros of having one:
-keep you company
-someone to talk to
-sexual bliss
-less of a chance to feel lonely

Cons of having one:
-she could be a nagger
-Could take away from your guy time
-could enforce a lot of stupid rules
-could make you feel smothered

I'd summarize things like this: As long as you got enough time to keep a girl / boy company go for it. However if you are aware that you leave the house due to work / education etc at 6AM and are back at 8PM and dead tired, don't try it, unless both of you are busy at the same place and can see each other there.
That's just my opinion though :P

being single is awesome... friends with benefits

i prefer being single. i've had 2 major problems in my relationships;

1. control issues- i had to dress, act, eat, be friends with certain ppl, etc. in their range of tastes. if i didnt, i would hear crap about it all day and night till i gave in or just ignored her about it.

2. texting/cell phones- i dont mind it, but 80% of the time it would be better to call me. and not call me 5x an hour for 3 hrs. or 50 texts in an hour. all about if im thinking of her or what we are doing. this of course was during work when i was busy, but that didnt matter.

I also like being single, but still really miss being in a relationship.
Pros:
- Sex (Fapping gets kinda boring after a while, don't you think?)
- Having someone to care for
- Knowing that you have someone to rely on

Cons
- The lack of freedom (Hanging out with friends, just going out, grab a beer and have some manly conversation.)
- Restrictions (Such as not being able to watch hentai as much, or porn for that part.)

And also more trivial stuff like being forced to accompany her for hours when she is going shopping for new clothes. I've always hated that, no matter who I go shopping with.
