What do you most enjoy, or miss, about being single?

Whether you are single, unattached, married or committed there are good points & bad points to that status, the trick is to concentrate on the good points of your current status that make you happy & to learn how to change the way you see the bad points so that you are if not happy then at least content.

I am happily married & I'm more than content with my relationship & lifestyle however I can now appreciate more the things that I hated while I was single & enjoy the things I so desperately wanted.
For many people the grass is always greener on the other side & so whether in a relationship or not they always wish for the opposite as everything always seems much more fulfilling than what they have currently.

I'm happy that I have someone who is always on my side & that rather than feeling unloved & lonely I have someone to keep me company, comfort me when needed & support, encourage & praise me in everything I do. The feeling of knowing you are not alone in the trials of life & that someone thinks you are worth knowing, spending time with & yes even loving is an amazing feeling to have & we should all recognise this fact.

There are things I miss about being unattached but they are insignificant in comparison to what I gain through being married. I miss being able to please just myself with no thought for others, staying in my pyjamas or even in bed all day, only having to cook when I feel like it & being able to watch in pure silence what I want on the television.
It's thinking of & looking after myself & myself alone that I miss at times but living just to please yourself is not a satisfying way of life & the benefits are minimal at best.

I do not miss enough of the single life to wish to be part of it again, I'm lucky enough to understand & appreciate the benefits of having someone with me & for me in every way & I wouldn't want my life to be any other way.
