[b][i]This article made me think... Reasons why I'm happy I'm single. My list is below this article. Feel free to add your 2cents worth.[/i][/b] BERLIN (Reuters) - [b]More than 80 percent of single German women are perfectly happy without a man [/b]in tow and say living solo gives them more freedom to do what they want, according to a survey for Stern magazine. Coming amid mounting political alarm about Germany's low birthrate and aging population, the survey of 1,003 women showed [b]only two percent did not enjoy their solitary lifestyle and 36 percent opted to stay single because it was more fun.[/b] Almost half the women said they preferred single life because it was easier to keep their homes tidy and 36 percent said with no man on the scene they didn't have to endure watching sports on television. Reasons why I'm happy I'm single: 1) Closet Space 2) Having the bathroom to myself 3) Closet Space 4) Having the bed to myself 5) Closet Space 6) No snoring (other than my cats) 7) No picking up after someone else 8) No "while you're up, could you bring me a beer?" 9) Closet Space 10) No interruptions while I'm watching Ty Pennington 11) Did I mention Closet Space? |

I'll go along with most of those. Since I was evicted from my own closet while married, its kind of nice to have my own now and ACTUALLY be able to put my clothes in it. I disagree about the bed thing. The thing I miss the most is having some next to me. There's something comforting about that. Oh, and replace Ty Pennington with football. There, thats pretty much me.

There are moments that snuggling would be good. But I've been snuggle-deprived.
(Did I mention I have 5 closets full of clothes? LOL)

And if my cats farted in bed, they would be downstairs. The occasional snoring is bad enough.

Belive me, my mom has been single all her life, my dad lives across the country from where i live. (so not only does my mom have the closet space, but no ring on her finger) But she does share the bed occasionally, with me. So i begining think she's not exactly as lucky as you.... :)

common grils... although i'm very much my own woman and would love more closet space, i wouldn't trade rolling over snuggling up to my husband for anything. don't get me wrong, there are times when i enjoy my alone time, but having someone to come home to at night can be so comforting sometimes, you just need to find a man that is willing to let you have your Ty Pennington time with no interruptions (i'm feeling ya there, Ty and Carter-- whoa baby), but i do like having someon to cuddle up and watch a football game with...

I'm really happy that you have Mr. Wonderful and all, but I don't feel the need to "just find the right man." I enjoy my independence and my singledom. Other than wishing I had someone around to fix things occasionally, I have no need to stake a claim on some guy. And I can hire someone to do that. ;
Glad you're happy but it's not for everyone.

Agree, but mine is not having to think first before I do anything... I can be spontaneous and sparky!! :D

Well, thinking a little is still important hon. Otherwise you end up with "my baby's momma drama" or some nasty creeping crawling disease on your love commando.

My deepest sympathies. If I met a man that would build me a house with a super-duper closet for my clothes and shoes... or convert a very large bedroom into a closet, maybe I'd consider it... But I enjoy having 4 BR closets packed plus one bedroom full plus an additional closet of clothes.
I plea that I was raised this way - my mom taught me you can never have enough clothes or shoes... It's a genetic disorder I think.

LOL - Love this list. Closet space is huge with me too (though now I'm having issues with my kitty overrunning it and tearing through my things...maybe he needs a larger closet of his own.)
I would also like to add something to that list...
Not being told what or how something should be done...this is a big one for me. I hate getting these opinions from live-ins...can't imagine having to put up with it in a marriage situation. :-/

Marriage? What's that? Never done the co-habitation thing. Never would. Unless it was like a duplex. LOL

Your blog is kool. One of the best things about me being single is being able to talk to anyone u want without someone getting jealous.

I recommend putting a cork in their asses. That should stop the gas.

Single is good. Even if I was non-single, I'd still talk to whoever I wanted. Not single does not mean you are gagged or muzzled.
