The Joys of Being Single.

Asked Mar 30, 2009, 06:03 AM — 175 Answers
Alright, let's face it. There are several threads on here about how to get over someone and the heartbreak you feel in the process. It seems that being single is not an ideal situation for anyone, and most, especially after a break up, are extremely afraid of the possibility of this. I would like to start a top ten list I have made of why it is AWESOME to be single, and why you should enjoy this while you can!

1. No complaining...my toilet seat is up at all times!

2. Watching sports. Believe it or not, I don't have to sit there an answer questions about what a freaking first down is!

3. No more expensive, and most often bad dinners.

4. If the 'Notebook 2' comes out, guess who doesn't have to see it? (ME)

5. No more waiting around while my ex sleeps until 12 or 1pm in the afternoon.

6. 'Sex and the City' is no longer my show of choice.

7. I can actually talk to any hot chick I want without feeling as if I am a pig.

8. I do not have to visit her side of the family, which treats me as if I am the devil.

9. No more expensive gifts for b-days, holidays and the such. Valentines day is OUT!

10. No more watching the worthless kU Jayhawks play!

I know it is not a question, but seriously, time to enjoy life for some of you guys and gals. What have you come to enjoy about being single? I know you can think of at least one thing you love now! Let it rip...

No more...I have the sniffles, and I think I'm dying! Can you wait on me hand and foot for a week mommy?

No more...You didn't tell me we had plans to go out today! I told you I was going golfing with my buddies!

No more...Can you come get me from the golfcourse? Well....the cart girl with the beer wouldn't leave us alone!

No more...Why did you turn the alarm clock off...I'm late for work! (when it had gone off 4 times and tried to wake him...golf hangover!)

Nore more...drinking the milk from the carton, or leaving it with not even enough to color coffee! (now I can drink from the carton...just cause I CAN!)

No more...I didn't hear my cell phone! (when it's attached to him like his best friend)

No more...Ohhh, that text was from my buddy's wife! It was a joke!

No more...I forgot to pick up the things you needed. I have to go check my lotto tickets online!

No more...I have no idea who that girl is!

.........to be continued!

You don't have to stroke the fragile male ego, and other things.

You can talk to your girlfriends for hours on the phone without getting dirty, exasperated looks.

You can eat garlic or onions without a second thought about breath mints. You can go to bed in flannel and plaid rather than Frederick's and Victoria.

No more arguments about things you can't explain.

The best reason for being single is: Vibrators don't talk back, you can turn them off and on, and they don't stop until they are through serving their purpose.

You don't have to wear a shirt with cleavage ALL of the time!

You don't have to hang around with their buddy's whiny girlfriend...and have to get to know a new one every week!

You don't have to be in charge of buying "the wrong" C'mas, B'day, etc. Gifts for his mother, his sister, his kids, his.....!

You don't have to worry if he has fallen asleep on the picnic table and could freeze his balls off, or fall off and hit his head on the cooler in in a drunken stupor! Lol (oops...actually, that one is a plus!...lol)

No more pretending I like the in-law's.

No more, yeah, I think your family is great. Sure, they're normal. Love them....

You think you don't marry the family? Wrong.

Yeah, for me one of the BEST things is no more redneck in-laws from hell. (You guessed it, the singing fish was a gift from THEM!)

You all are bitter! Yeah, I said it!

I have to say, I'm still in love with hubby, even after being together for 19 years. He makes me laugh, he makes me cry, he holds me when I'm sad and gives me a kick in the arse when I need it. Also, he know who wears the pants in the family, and it's not him!

I'm going to burn in hell now, aren't I?

What can I say, I'm a toughy, not many men can handle me, but, if you get past the tough exterior, then heck, I'm tons of fun!
