I for one do not think that single & alone is a bad thing.....I rather like it after 33 years of living with the guy I married & the only good part was when I had my career to become a workaholic at......I ended up with my degree & in the same career as my H.....but living with him & his attitudes & approach to things was like living in hell.......

When I left him 5 years ago....to move 2100 miles away where I didn't know anyone....it was the first time in my life that I really got to know who I was & be able to control my life on MY terms.....I would never go back to being with a guy to snuggle or anything else.

Problem was that I saw the red flags before I ended up marrying him. What I didn't know was that those red flags destroyed the marriage before it even started......he never changed or grew up to be responsible......I can tell you one thing....a relationship is more than just snuggling....it's about taking care of each other in RESPONSIBLE financial ways.....if you can't do that, you don't belong in a relationship especially if all you think goes into a relationship is soft cuddly stuff.

I honestly think that there are some people who should not only never get married, but shouldn't even get into relationships....lack of maturity, lack of responsibility.....all sorts of reasons & one is better off not even bothering.
