Understanding Preferences for Being Single or in a Relationship

People's preferences for being single or in a relationship vary based on personal values, experiences, and current life circumstances. Some prioritize independence, while others seek companionship. Recognizing your own needs can help you make choices that align with your happiness and well-being.

A little of both. relationships are a lot of work but being single gets lonely.

Single

The last few years have been the most enjoyable for me after spending lots of years in rships because I was too needy

Sweet

Freedom

I am going with SuninLibra - Single unless he is the right one. No point in settling or wasting anyone's time

Like in between....

I really like the person... so, I'll be in a relationship and I do enjoy their company and whatnot. It's fun

But being single also have good qualities when you could just spend money on yourself.

Most of the stuff that I could do single, I could do in a relationship.

In a relationship I could do stuff when I'm single... sooo I'm neutral 🤔

I prefer to be in a relationship I can relate with, or simply alone. Both are the same to me.

If the relationship is really good I prefer a relationship, but single is infinitely better for me than being in a bad or mediocre relationship.

Besides being single is awesome. When I go shopping I don't have a list or ideas, I just pick a bunch of random shit I like. Like today I ended up with oysters, cheese, catfish sinkers for fishing, blueberries, and fiji water. Rather then cooking a meal I'll just munch on all this for the next few days lol!

Relationship but living apart. Cause when I find his stuff that he's left laying out it makes me smile cause I miss him. If we lived together it would prolly drive me mad.

Being in a good relationship.

That's my promise to myself since I was a little kid and now I'm keeping my promise.

I have eggs, bread and tons of canned vegetables at home, but I tend to never eat in large portions. I more or less eat small amounts throughout the day. Probably not the most healthy way to diet, but my whole life I've had a tough time eating an entire plate of food consisting of different things. Like ill eat some eggs and toast for breakfast, a sandwich or can of vegetables at lunch, then little amounts of fruit and random stuff around dinner. I was like that even as a child, and would always get yelled at because i couldn't finish my plate of food, then would be hungry 1 hour later lol.

What's a lovable bastard....I didn't know there was such a thing ?

The word to me conjures up a shitty person who has no respect

me and my man are funny with eachother.... we call eachother love names, and sometimes i call him a bastard. but my tone is sweet and laughing

our relationship is fun even when we're just homebodies; we enjoy eachother's company.

that's the best kind of relationship to me, to enjoy eachother's time together.

Don't let him sting you too often Lisa...we can do that at times, Scorpios that is

We are much better when people don't allow us to get away with too much .... just tell him to f uck off now and then

Lol

I agree with the notion that being alone is boring. I am extremely lonely and don't have many friends and it is absolutely awful.

Both.

Why both tho?

I like the freedom that comes with being alone, but I also love being loved by a boyfriend.

Being alone can be great but gets boring quick without someone being there to enjoy it with. Sometimes love gets the best of us. Words change such as I becomes we etc.

GETS BOring too with another

I REMeber seeing sunset with ex n not we’re distant apart zero connection

I was basically watching it on my own. Without the he hassle

I have been there too.....some of my exes have drained me of my sparkle....hard work, but I got it back now 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Tell me I wanna chat :p :p

Depends on the point I am in my life. I am one of those people that need a lot of space (Aqua Sun,Sag Moon) but I also crave companionship (Taurus Rising, Cap Venus ) so I am a bit all over the place. In my opinion slightly crazy.

Oh wait i just remembered... i'm a Gemini. And technically, us Geminis are in already in a relationship since birth. 🙄 So, it's sorta monogamous, he he... 😅 If we're to get involve with another - that's a bit like a "menage a trois...'' 😳
