Single vs Married

From WikiVS, the open comparison website

[edit] Single

Pro's

Being single is a great thing to enjoy. I'm not quite sure why some people are so desperately trying to find the love of their life or even a lover at all when they have this great blessing called Singledom (If that is a word). When you are single you are free to do whatever you please and you don't have any boundaries. You can go study abroad with nothing holding you back. You can talk to any guy or girl and not feel any guilt. You can travel the world with your other "SINGLE" friends and do whatever you want at nobody but your own expense. You will never have to worry about an extra birthday. All those little holidays that the corporations schemed up don't matter to you because you don't need to sell an arm or a leg to afford Vday, christmas, birthday, anniversary and prob some others that im leaving out. You can go hang out with your friends and never have to worry if that other person is ok. You will seriously save a lot of time, money and energy by staying single.

Con's

Never finding real love, STD's are more prone to bachelors for obvious reasons, being alone and locked up in your home/room editing wiki sites is lame, one day you will look back and realize you have wasted your life by not being married and having a family.

[edit] Married Life

Pro's

Family, non-std filled body, no waiting for death when you're old. No loneliness. Generally being able to look yourself in the mirror is a good thing. Married people live longer.

Con's

Married life is a whole another apple full of worms. Of course you get your little perks like tax breaks and hopefully a spouse that can make you that home cooked meal after a long day of work or your little one making that little comment that just brightens up the darkest of days but.... You gota pay for those darn kids educations and more. Your spouse will cost even more of your precious time and resources and not just money. Now that you got your parents off your back about marriage you gota pop a couple out of the oven for them to be grandparents. Now you gota buy a house and be all "responsible" and take care of business. I mean You go to work 8 hours and sleep for 8 hours thats 16 hours gone. You only have 8 precious hours which probably get chipped away from traffic and just everyday little things so realistically speaking its like 6 hours of "free" time. Once you got a mini-me or 2 running around then you're done for. Forget weekends and travel. Soccer practice, after school programs, study time, story time, bath time, play time, discipline time, something else time and etc. Your personal life, as of then, is no longer in existence.

[edit] Overall Summary

Neither one is better or worse. In general its just different, most people find being single and the occasional sexual encounter is lame and unfulfilling. Some people find that most relationships have been a burden probably because they were hurt or in an abusive relationship. Finding the right person is easy, just live life and keep an eye out. Generally when you stop looking for a special someone is when you find them.
