How do you feel when you are single and see only couples and families around you
Understanding Feelings When Surrounded by Couples
Feeling alone or different when seeing couples is common and can stem from a desire for companionship or societal influences. Recognizing your own emotional needs and focusing on personal growth can help. Remember that everyone's journey is unique and being single offers valuable opportunities for self-discovery.
I always feel lucky in the company of married friends and their screaming monsters lol. My life is so much simpler.

lol children running around will do it! 😛
I feel fucking happy because they can leave me alone coz they have their girl to bug them. Oh and I love being single and I wouldn't trade anything in life for it even money, I managed to finagle my way out from a scorpio relationship phew lucky me.

Good thing my Sag and Scorp bff's are single. I just got out of a relationship few months ago so I don't really feel any pressure to settle down or at least enter another relationship.I'm all about having fun and embracing what life give you - Libra style .
When you have singles' company it is fun, but when they all are taken, gets lonely at times.

haha yes I don't envy the responsibilities they have, just that they have company lol. But also I think the grass always seems greener on other side.

Maybe age plays a factor? As you grow older you start getting lonelier. I do enjoy my alone time, I like that I can eat, watch, sleep, do anything I want anytime. It's just sometimes you feel how come no one has been serious about me.

I feel okay, happy, or sad depending on what day it is. I've lived both lives and they both have their benefits and downfalls.Enjoy whichever one you currently have because there is always someone who has what you might want and wants what you have.
very well said.

Yes, you may have everything, but still when you see people around you settling and growing their families, you wonder what am I doing with my life, is it going anywhere.
Generally just reveling in the fact I have no commitments,
my time is my own and my stories don't revolve around missing all the red lights Tuesday afternoon for after school pick up,
two tubs of yogurt were half price at the grocery store, or that time Frank hit himself in the head with a rake mowing the lawn.... for the tenth year in a row...
Sleeping in Christmas morning, leaving early for dat nap, while parents are subduing sugared up kids...
Giving and receiving original gifts- cos it ain't just about new socks and underpants yet...
It's so hard juggling this time of year when your partnered up- who's doing Christmas Eve with which set of parents, organizing play dates for the kiddies but making sure you can still have a drink if someone has to drive - not to mention the stretch on your wallet.
Not trying to be BahHumbug about it. I adore my married friends and family BUT I do love the single set up too

I think it's great that they've got someone, then I think it's great I get to do what I want whenever I want.

☝️Is right but all I'm saying is I'd rather not settle for less than what I deserve if I stay single so be it but I will definitely have no regrets and will live my life to the fullest.

A lot of people worry too much about being single and just wanted to be with someone cause they're lonely that's just not for me and I won't judge either it's a choice.

Lol I would assume you are a female. Practical tips I can give you- doll up and go to the bars or clubs, guys will hit on you there. For me I have my goals which is non women related, and the only time I spend with women is for sex where they would be interested in me first so it save much effort from my side.

Yes, I am a female. But then I will think they only like me because I am dolled up, till I am dolled up, what after that 😛
I can be so disconnected from stuff like this. Like things like this does not bother me and I guess because being tied to someone is not what I always want. Every blue moon I'll think about having a boyfriend or husband, but its not thoughts that I have often at all.
And the only single people left are busy hitting on the married/taken people 😐. Opposites attract?
