| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/19/2008 7:22:21 AM | I agree..yes i have gone way to personal...& i am very sorry...No i shouldnt judge u just coz i dont like wat u do..im sorry...
But i was sticking up for myself in the last few posts .NONE of the swearing was aimed at u nor was it put in a post to u......I did go off the topic,,only because i was answering the crap other peole were firing at me..I was basically bein called a hypocrite for being a single mum,i was mearly explainng the reasons why im single...Im NOT after anyones pity,ive had enough of that to last me a life time & i dont need more.Yes i was swore at by maple59 if u read it closely.......I HAVE answered the forum question....Whats the worse thing about being single.....I put absolutly nothing & i go on to explain why..
As for spending more time with my son,,i work from home so im with him practically all the time,apart from when my family take him out to give me break....I come online when he is asleep,its not as if i just leave him & sit infront of the pc u know!.....
& as for posting on in my own countries forums...IM FROM BLOODY ENGLAND!!!...Isnt that where u & everyone else on here are from???????.Ur profile says ur from Halifax...Isnt that in england????.
Once again...Im very very sorry i was horrid to u personally,i shouldnt of done that.....But in no way will i apologise for my replys to maple59 or anyone else for that matter.....My comments were aimed at one girl..I have sincerly apologised to that girl.If she doesnt choose to accept it well that is my own fault...... | |

| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/19/2008 7:52:42 AM | THE WORST THING ABOUT BEING SINGLE???
It's not missing "SEX" but rather the "Making Of Love"
Especially the cuddling and spooning of two naked bodies!! | |
|

I'm just wondering how the hell all these people from different countries end up in our forum as I'm sure some don't even know where the hell Nova Scotia is. lol!!!
Hahaha.....If you looked at my original response to your first post I thought there might be some clues there. Like talking about local forums and then there is the bit I quoted here about people from other countries(mostly the USA) not knowing where Nova Scotia is.
I guess you can see why some of us felt the need to respond the way we did as a lot of us know lovevampy personally ( where she has organized many a POF meet for the local members), unlike in the Global Forums, where you probably would never meet the other posters.
Really though missforever. No one got physically hurt, so no harm.  | |

| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/19/2008 4:02:15 PM | Wow did this go off topic. I just read through it all - whew! lol
Reading it however did remind me of something I miss now that I am single - the silly debates you get into with someone that you know really well. I still have that with my friends, but it is differnt arguing over something silly on the phone than in person you know? And there are no sexy rewards when you win - or when you lose, lol! | |

But, isn't that what FWB's are supposed to be about....No emotional attachment? Wouldn't you have known that going in?
do you not have emotional attachments to your friends? it's a FRIEND with benefits. Benefits being the sex. Maybe it's semantics, but what she described is a fuk buddy. There's a big difference between the two, even though the phrases are used for whatever people want to use them for.
That being said... to not derail the threat I will answer the original question.
worse things about being single: sleeping alone all or most of the time.
that's all I got. | |

| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/20/2008 8:33:16 AM | | I'd have to say the worse thing is the never ending masturbating to Old Navy commercials and peeking out the window at the single mom next door who dresses in leopard skin spandex even though she weighs 300 pounds. Well that and the staying up all night calling old girlfriends hoping that one of them is drunk enough to allow a booty call, even for a pity f@#K. Other than that I'm OK with it really. | |

Yup, semantics!!! No difference.
there is a difference between the two 'relationships'... a BIG one.
label them whatever you want, but there's a big difference between having a friend that you hang out with as a friend and care about as a friend that you also have sex with, than there is a 'buddy' that comes over, f.cks and leaves that you don't do anything else with or barely even communicate other than in grunt and moans.
A BIG difference.
I'm not bashing either... but there's a large difference. | |

Ok, you win, as I can only assume you've experienced both to know this instead of it just being your thoughts about it.  I have my thoughts but I've never experienced it so my thoughts remain they are the same thing as I really can't picture someone arriving at a persons place and just start undressing and have sex without a word being said...well unless it's being paid for, but that's a totally different scenario.  | |

I have, and I'm not ashamed of it. I have had sex with a couple of guys that I met as an aquaintance that I knew enough about and wanted to have sex with ... and did, responsibly, safely and well communicated, without getting to know about their dreams and aspirations. They would come over, hang out for a few minutes... and we'd have sex. Sometimes they'd hang out for a little bit, sometimes not, but they never stayed the night. It wasn't about friendship or romance, it was about sharing a safe, consensual sexual experience.
And I have had a friend like the OP.
Although it may not seem like it... I am picky about who I sleep with and I haven't slept with a lot of people... (still single digits). I wouldn't have sex with someone I know nothing about, but I don't feel the need to be in love with someone to share a sexual experience. I know a lot of women my age who look down upon the behaviours above but have slept with a helluva lot more guys than me and have been a lot less picky... the difference is they trick themselves into thinking it means something then that they just want sex. Then when things don't work out they beat themselves up... when all they really wanted was sex anyway but they are trying to follow these repressed societal rules that women can't have safe, casual sex for the sake of it.
like Hustler said: relax, it's just sex
and again to not completely derail the thread... there's a lot of things I would miss by being single.. like not having someone to cook for (I hate cooking just for myself), not having someone close to confide in, living alone, etc... however I have a roommate, so I have a lot of those things taken care of at the friendship level. It's not the same, no... but it does take care of some of the little things. | |

| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/22/2008 10:26:22 AM | Can I ask a question? What ever happened to good old fashioned self respect. Self respect for yourself as well as someone else? People are so focused on who and how many times they can pop in and out of bed...they have no idea even how to have a decent "loving, caring, respect" for each other relationship. What about the good old waiting until you are married for sex...(not I know that 95% will laugh at that one)....the special time between a man and woman on their wedding night....I hear it still happens. Wouldnt' that be awesome...to fall in love with someone and just experience the awesome joy of getting to know someone on every level...knowing that when "the time" comes....it will be the most special feeling in the world with the most special person in your life. I think those days for most people are long gone....and personally I think it's a shame. (and please don't tell me off....we are ALL entitled to our opinions....and this is mine.)
Worse things about being "single"
time alone....(sometimes it can be good) knowing that someone wants you and only you coming home to an empty house sitting at night cuddling on the sofa and talking about the things of the day...or just be goofy and playful just sitting watching tv and knowing your "special" someone is there beside you...perhaps not saying anything at all seeing your friends with their wives/husbands/partner...and wondering..."what if...." | |

Worse things about being "single" coming home to an empty house
I think that's one of the best things about being single. If you compare that to walking in the door and hearing....
"Have you been drinking?" "I thought you were going to mow the lawn today?" "Is that perfume I smell on you?" "Were you hanging around with that no-good buddy of yours?" "I thought you said you were only going to be an hour...."
Trust me.... one of the best things about coming home to an empty house is silence. Silence is golden

| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/28/2008 8:07:30 AM | There is nothing wrong with being single. It is the greatest thing not having an annoying person around you all the time. I have seen some miserable women out there with the wrong men.
I have been one of them, don't care to go through that again..  | |
|
| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/28/2008 2:23:45 PM | I don't think there is anything Wrong in being single!!! But the topic is.. Worse things about being single. Not... Why is it great to be single!! For some people there are things they dislike about being single and they have been mentioned here. Now for you folks that had all these bad/henpecking relationships maybe you should look in the mirror and tell yourself you have to make better choices!!! Don't make it sound like a travesty for those that want a relationship because your's were failures!! | |
|
| Worse things about being single... Posted: 6/28/2008 5:48:27 PM | Hmmm Ok... here goes...
* Sometimes the alone time gets to you * Cooking/eating for one * Waking up alone * Lack of physical imtimacy * Crying alone * Laughing alone (or not because you're alone) * Nobody to wonder why you're late getting home * Showers for one * No second person for those heavy duty decisions * Nobody to eat the other half of the popsicle
Got a bunch for best things about being single too....
