You may want to be careful airing that kind of information. There are ALOT of people who would express interest just for that opportunity.

my personal space. but then sometimes i'd really like to be sharing the covers. i really do need to figure this out before it's too late.

Not being asked "What are you thinking?" and then having to deal with sulking when you tell him "nothing".

Actually, not having to deal with sulking, sniping, or outright temper tantrums because he can't take things easy. Not having orders barked at me, or being told how to do it, when I do just fine doing it my own way!

taking up the entire queen sized bed.
you can look like total lleh, be sick, wear ugly clothes in your own home without having someone to look good for.
having your OWN laundry to do, not hers!!!
sole decision making when it comes to the house.
sole decision making when it comes to the car.
don't have to check with someone before you go places or do things.
zero relationship problems when you are single; there is no relationship to *have* problems!
no need to explain why you "just have to!" remodel the bathroom for the second time this month.

I remodel the bathroom when ever I change the toilet paper roll or the towels.

Flexibility to change my plans or to do something spontaneously

popcorn for dinner

I can replay the same song over and over if I want

Never fall in the toilet bowl

Would this come under too much to drink?

Financial decisions are easy

Sing in the shower - BADLY but with great passion!

My personal space. but then sometimes i'd really like to be sharing the covers. i really do need to figure this out before it's too late.

I "rest" my case.

Can also leave flatulence in the bed and not have to "fluff" the covers.

but don't ya miss holding her head under the covers after ya let a big stinker?!?!?

You know me too well my dear.

peace, solitude, space, and freedom...I was never happy in the 2 LTRs I had...now, I am the happiest girl on earth!

Wanting!

amen

my adds include sleeping as late as I want on weekends, no beer can mess, no boy poker parties to clean up after and no pets

I'm trying to figure out what is more "selfish".

- Having all your time to yourself and feeling frustrated if someone demands attention

OR

- The other demanding more attention, while you are preoccupied with other things?

I'm trying to figure out what this has to do with anything

sounds like a hidden agenda question

what is selfish? IDK - but choosing to be single is not selfish, necessarily
being inconsiderate is selfish (beer can mess, for ex.)

I prefer the first choice!

Very good question.

My parents and life in general enhanced my natural innate ability to feel "selfish" every time I get frustrated when someone asks for my attention, and also in those times when I need to bug someone who is busy.

It takes me to know one.

Why would either be considered selfish? Maybe if it's an all the time thing for both examples, it might be worth considering if the person is just plain not right for you at all.

I'd say it's a simple lack of respect all the way around. Why doesn't the person asking for attention jump in and see if they can just help out. And actually help, not get in the way!

everyone guages selfishness by a different standard

my gauge has to do with consistency,, if one consistenly expects/demands/ asks for more than can be expected/demanded/asked of them,,,,,to me they are a selfish person


I tend to consider emotional development as well though, as I expect a child to be a bit more selfish in their approach to life than I do an adult,,

That being alone sucks so much when you actually meet someone decent you are so grateful, over joyed, and blissful that you are smart enough to ignore the small stuff that every human being does and really enjoy the hell out of life!

So that when you do find THE person you have been searching for all your life there won't be anything or anyone (including yourself)holding you back!

If your not single then you probably already found her/him or at least that is how it is supposed to work, isn't it?

Ed are you following me on twitter?!

I would also add there is no stress either.

The freedom of it all!
