    Because living with someone day in and day out can drive one up the wall. Here are just a few of the reasons why I enjoy being single... It's nice coming home to silence, my dog greets me however, but he doesn't ever bitch if I have to work late and miss dinner. He's very clean and tidy, he has never left me any suprises accept the time he drooled in my boots. My house is always fairly and easily clean, no one tells me when to take the trash out, and I don't ever have dirty dishes in the sink from a rude roomate or a girlfriend who thinks her coochie is made of gold and she doesn't ever have to clean up after herself because her mommy told her so?

    Speaking of that, it's easier for me to look in my medicine cabinet these days, instead of the mass biochemistry set and toilet accessories that comes with a live in girlfriend, I have much more space for my shaving cream, toothpaste, floss, mouthwash, etc. etc. Oh yeah! While were in the bathroom, since I am single and live alone I am free to keep the lid up if I want to, I also notice my toilet paper supply lasts longer, the water isn't blue, and I don't have any underthings hanging from my bathroom curtain rod.

    My bedroom is quite and peaceful, just as it should be, I don't have to hear you snore, and you don't have to hear me, nope, can't put your cold feet on me anymore. I have all this extra closet space for my stuff, and don't have to trip over anyones shoes or apparrel to get to it.

    I cook and eat what I want and like and don't have to worry about appeasing someone else or wondering if they are going to like my cooking or not. I don't have to fight for or play hide and seek for the remote control. I can watch football without interuption. I can invite to my home whomever I want without having to ask permission.

    I think the real reason why people stay single is that there is a personal peace of mind that is aquired in the silence of being single, as I just described my life is nothing short of serenity.

    • You would make a good lawyer. I am sure you will convince ppl to divorce. They will have no damn reason to live together. VERY VERY FUNNY ANSWER, but to the point. I would not live with someone for all the stated reasons.

    • I liked the "golden coochie" illustration... very good. You left out the part about your hand never having a headache or falling asleep.

    • Well, I wish I could enjoy those things. I live with 3 other adults. And share a bedroom. But the remote is (usually) mine. I can change my hair color and style whenever the hell I like. And I don't have to deal with those dreaded (but unfortunately needed) discussions about where the relationship is heading. I don't have to worry about birth control. And of course there's the fact I will always love about being single--even as I start to hate my own singleness--that I don't have to worry about appeasing someone else, or wondering what the hell I did wrong (because I'm not one of the most sympathetic gals in the world).

    • Thank you for a great answer! I am single not by choice (but not upset about it either, really), and your post helped remind me of all the reasons to be content with my life as it is.
