  True, being single means you don't have to answer up to anyone. I can understand the appeal there.

  For myself, I went through a horrible marriage and divorce. One rotton woman, for sure. Though I had that bad experience, I always longed for that lifetime partner, one to share all that life has to offer.

  I now have that, and I am excited about it. Together we are fullfilling the dreams and desires we always wanted, and we get to do that together. She is everything I ever wanted in a wife. We have been married 2 1/2 years, and they are without a doubt the best years of my life. I look forward to the great accomplishments that we will share.

  SINGLE or MARRIED or LIVING WITH SOMEONE (if you can talk about)
  

  what do you :

  • like in your situation
  • dislike in your situationFor better understanding please tell us also your Age
    and if you are single : please tell us if you have been married or lived with someone befor

  • I am divorced and in a LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP with a single man (a peer) who has never been married- I am in NJ and he is in Calif- I am 37 -2 sons: ages 15 and 16
  • What I like: I finally feel I have found THE ONE! check him out in pic attachment
  • Dislikes - well #1 the distance and that we cannot be together yet of course. We are both waiting til our kids are 18- he also has a daughter who's 16
  • I have never just lived with anyone before simply because I have not met anyone since my divorce I would want to live with til I met Adrian (see pic-LOL)but I hope we will be married sooner than later of course but I am not anxious anxious- I am quite sure we will live together first because I am not going to check into any hotel when I finally get back to CA! LOL!! Of course another thing I dislike about this is what if we come together after all this time (I have already invested 3 yrs in this) and we don't click! but that is just ridiculous, right?? (please someone say YES! LOL)

  not sure if this attachment is here....Hmmm

  Yeah, you really should take the time to meet him... people have subtle characteristics in their personalities and how they carry themselves that you just can't pick up in chat and over the phone.

  Don't think I'm trying to scare you... odds are things will work out great if you two "click" as well as you describe!

  As I think is typical of JW youth, I married relatively young (21 years old) and didn't move out of my parents house until then. So I have never really been single.

  Married life is great for the companionship. I'm someone who wouldn't like to be alone at all.

  Sometimes the single life sounds exciting, but I'd still long for a constant companion.

  ARROW : I bet you know what you are talking about !!! And yes all this seems to be very complicated
  
  ESTEE : I know PFFFFFFFFFFF about the possessive stuff it even happen when you are not in any relationship, I mean with simple friends that?s one of the reason I don?t go out that much (because I don?t have girlfriends at all) Cause most of the time I have to face that kind of issue and it is very tiring ? Whatever ? I feel better home anyway.
  
  TINKY : At 21 it is a good thing to be free !!! ENJOY

  ELSWHERE : I do feel lonely most of the time and it is not always fun, but I feel that I?m better alone than with the wrong one ? Cause I guess If I had found THE one I would be with him when we need to be together.
  
  MINDCHILD : Basically wait and see ?
  
  ASH and FREEDOM : It seems to work for you that way. I?m happy for you

  KIRA : Same question ; did you meet him YET or NOT (cause I guess you have to) anyway living together or not is not the same at all ? so It can be wonderful one way and awfull the other way. And the kids are old enough to understand you both need love and eventually need to be together (who makes that choice : him or you ? 1 or 2 things are BIZARRE IN YOUR STORY I?M SCARED FOR YOU because you already spend 3 years in that relationship) And is it him on the pic ? Because he looks like a PRETTY GIRL !!!

  DRWTS : Well it seem that you have what you want, anyway

  I'm single.

  What I like = Frenchbabyface's new picture and the freedom to say so. *eyebrows go crazy*

  Seriously, I love being single, but then I'm kinda high on life now after leaving the witnesses anyway, and it was my goal to be a happy, complete, single person before I got into a serious relationship again after my marriage. I almost messed that up twice, relatively early on, and I'm just glad now that it didn't work out (even though both women give me seriously melancholy feelings when I think about them), as I had so far to go just two or three short years ago.

  My dislike? I dislike dating for the most part. I'd love to have a female best friend, where sex does get in the way, alot, lol. I'd love to build a life together with someone I admire, respect, and lust after. Frankly, I didn't put nearly enough emphasis on life-building in my life heretofore.

  also 2 forgot to say...

  I knew a couple who were like this online and when they met it was just dead. You really should meet this guy asap, before investing anymore time and emotional energy ...for your sake, and your happiness.
