That's why you have friends. But you can't play tongue hockey with friends.

Yeah well I'd miss that.

But then again if you were single you could go from bad kisser to bad kisser until you find one that you like.

Or you could avoid the kissing thing altogether and just get a bob. And a bucket load of batteries.

i dont believe some people choose to be single [deep down everybody wants a partner ..dont they?] its just that they dont have a choice - its just the way it is & learn to live with it

I wouldn't have it any other way... was married once years ago and had two children.

Now I do what I like when I like and can spend money without explaining it.  My women friends are all the same.

Men, as they get older, tend to look for someone to care for them into their old age, and most women are a wake up to that.

No way, not this little black duck!

To love someone who loves you is worth not being single for.

Would the statement also be true if you have more than one to share it with

There are many reasons  why people are single sometimes not by choice....

I lost my husband  18 months ago....and find positives and negatives with being single

Positives    my money is my money to spend on me.... i have a bit more social life  as I now have a lot more free time.

               my husband was quite ill and I cared and nursed him for the last 7 years

Negatives...  I miss the companionship and the love we had.... and also the shoulder to lean on when things were tough

               I knew i could shout and scream and he would listen and emotionally support me.

i have rediscovered me  this year....and I don't think i need another man full time   but who knows what will come in the future

   I wil never say never.....
