Holla if you're single!

I'm single. Some days, I don't feel proud of it and it makes me sad. While sometimes, I feel neutral about it.

What about "single and fine with it"

Having pride in being single is weird. Being single is hardly an achievement for most people.

I honestly don't care about relationships, so being single poses no problem to me.

You know, I see the word proud being thrown about a lot. Proud to be American, proud to be christian, proud to be single, proud to be gay, whatever, and I just don't understand it. Aren't you supposed to be proud of achievments? What you've done? Saying you're proud of simply what you are, to me is having pride in nothing at all. It's just, I don't know, I can't understand how someone can say they're proud to have done nothing. Anyone get where I'm coming from? Am I missing some sort of idea here?

When I was single, I'd like to be able to say I was happy with it, but I really wasn't at all. I was very unhappy, and now I'm much happier in a relationship. I think it's a very typical attitude of people my age to feel like this, with elements of peer pressure and "new feelings" that come with growing up making relationships feel like the most important things in the world. I can see how long, extended periods of singledom would lead to you being more apathetic about your own relationship status than if it was constantly changing.

If I was single, I'd be unable to honestly return your Holla proudly, but I think it shows a lot of open-mindedness that so many people here can :)

I'm single, mostly I don't think about it because of my very busy schedule, but when I do, i feel really sad..

I'm single and most of the time I'm fine with it. Every once in a while I sometimes wish I had someone, but I'm fine with it any other time. Oh yeah, and once valentines day comes around then I usually feel kinda shitty about it.

Single and happy for now. Getting my life together. :)

Recently back to single, I care, but I need a break from relationships so i'm not terribly sad.

Im not proud of being single but im also not sad about it i have patience enough to wait...

I'm single and ready to mingle!

"Im in a stable and lovely relationship!"

we have good days and bad, times when we fight and times when we agree.

HOWEVER - that being said, just because someone is single doesn't mean they cannot give good relationship advice. Sometimes good advice is just based off of common sense.

Saying that they're unqualified... is a bit like those parents who pull the "you don't have kids!" card whenever someone makes a comment about kids. As if you have to be a parent to know that say... it's bad to let your kid run into traffic.

Common sense is a commodity ANYONE can possess. In fact sometimes advice from someone who ISN'T in a relationship can be better because it may be unbiased.

To borrow from Facebook, it's complicated.

Yawrn

Single and couldnt really give a fuck :D

We've only just got going finally so I'm still pretty soft footed . Before I was on here single and asked a lot of stuff too. Also added a few comments to others.
I dunno , I think that even if people listening are single , an outside view on things can usually be much clearer so whatever their own situation I'm grateful for any opinions myself.

Single and feeling rather okay about it. To me, the status of my love life is the least of my worries. It just does not matter.

*Hollas*

I'm single and don't really care. I admit I use to care but guess what I've grown up and have common sense, well most of the time I have common sense. ha.

But I'm not proud to be single, what is there to be proud of. I personally "like" being single and free though, I love living my own life on my own. I know that I'll eventually find someone who I would like to be with and guess what I won't be proud that I would be in a relationship. I would be proud of the fact I found someone special, someone that has similar interests and qualities I enjoy and that is something to actually to be proud of in my thoughts.

I just became single for the first time in my adult life about a month ago, and I have to say it's not the worst thing i've ever done. Although I miss having someone to come home too lolz!

I have been in a relationship for about 2 years and married for a few months. He's better with dates than I am. I don't know if I'm proud to be in a relationship (I'm more proud of my car, apartment, academic capacity etc.), but I'm happy in my relationship.

Before marriage my typical relationship would last anywhere from 4 months to a year.

My advice pulls from observation of failed and successful relationships as well as analysis of my own failed and successful relationships. I have had a great deal many relationships so I have had many good opportunities to do this analysis.

Because I am NeuroNeptunian, and NeuroNeptunian is long-winded, I will end my jabbering with my "final word" as far as relationship advice goes: Communication. If you can't openly and honestly communicate with someone, then you can't be in a relationship with them, I don't care how much you love them. If you don't know how to communicate openly and honestly, then you aren't ready for a relationship. Pride is poisen when it comes to long term relationships.

I'm single. I wouldn't say that I'm "proud", but I would say that I preffer it that way consiering all the drama I really can't stand with relationships. I'm not the person to be commited to someone, nor am I the person to truelly care about someone enough to be in a relationship with them.

I'm single and I don't mind.
Sure it may be nice to be in a relationship, but I value my alone time too.

Holla!!!!! Single and proud. I'm far too selfish and free spirited to have to consider anyone else (my gorgeous daughter excluded of course). It doesn't even hold me back in a sexual way either as I just have one nights, (never at my home though) slutty? perhaps it is but I have desires just as people in relationships do. x

Single since a week and a half now. Well.. I'm lying, I'm still in limbo on what to do next.

If it is the end of my marriage, I am throwing the towel in on relationships for a good decade.

I'm single but not proud. I'm indifferent towards my relationship status.
