You mean the English word "committed" when you said "obligated"?

I agree that being single means much less drama (if you want it that way) than being married or in any otherwise committed relationship.

My parents, for instance, loved each other dearly; they played the saxophone together; yet they had a lot of fights, and a lot of drama. It had to do usually (but totally covertly) with the facts that Daddy was the sole money-earner, Mom stayed home with the kids, and Mom was much more intelligent than Dad, and much more relaxed in nature.

So they fought all the time, because neither wanted to give up the leadership to the other, they both figured, each individually, that they should be the leader. I mean, Mom figured her word should be last coz she was smart, and Dad figured what he says must go, coz he brought home the mullah.

If they each stayed single, chances are there wouldn't have been much drama in their lives.

Plus, living with a spouse takes a lot out of you, and that is always good fertile ground for drama: Two people, each having their own ideas, stressed out to the max, and depleted by their tiredness of reason and patience to listen to the other, and to be able to compromise.

Perhaps one of the most cherished aspects of being single is the freedom and lack of compromise.
You can listen to your own choice in music and watch what you want to watch on TV.
If you want to spend your Saturday wrapped in a blanket on your couch getting some extra sleep no one will bother you.
You can hit the gym whenever you want, you can spend the weekend doing what you want to do with your friends and not worry about the lack of attention you're showing your partner.
And you are free to date when you want and maybe someday find someone who lets you be you.:angel:

Do what you want to do. When you want to do it.

I have to agree. It is nice being single. Nobody expecting nothing out of you and you don't have to keep anyone posted on what your minute by minute day is like.

When you are dating then, you must consider yourself single in the unattached sense, this is not the way I see myself when dating someone. If I am dating, then I see myself as attached to that person, although I am single I consider that their is an obligation. Your relationships are without any obligation, I think I would prefer to be single and unattached, and not in a relationship without any obligation.
