The pro and cons of being single

Recently ive been missing the single life. some things you just dont have to worry about when you dont have a girlfriend, or spouse, or any commitment at all. I mean, its not as if, i hate the person im with, or im unhappy with her, its just the R word that is getting to me now..... Its ... "relationship".. You know i have a friend that has been talking to a girl for 9 MONTHS yeah 9 months, no commitment no problems. I was dating a girl for about 4 months, then we broke up and had been talking for about 3 years after that.. then for some reason we decided to start dating again an then here comes the drama!! 3 years of peace, with no commitment, then after 4 months in another relationship we are having problems again.. Im missing he single life, but i can treally seem to pull myself away from the relationship... What are my options? Lets just lay down the pros and cons of the sngle life!!!
PROS.
1. You can do whatever you want, whenever you want.
2. You can casually talk to.... Anyone
3. You dont have to worry about anyone nagging you about what you may have said, or someting that someone said that you said. (its irriating if you didnt know)
4. Youre not obligaed to do anything for anyone on any holiday. (christmas,brithdays,valentines day.
5. You save lots of money!!! (thats what matters)
6.Depending on the person, yo ucan have great sex with no commitment behind it.
7. There are no emotions attached.. When in a relationship , most times, if one person in the relationship is sad, the other ends up being sad or upset as well. When youre single, you dont have to worry about that, because you dont have to CARE!!
8.If you are annoyed with certain members of the opposite sex, you dont have to call them. you can stop seeing them. You can opt out. You can find someone else. You have that option. Everything is optional.
9.You can come home from work, take off your shoes, eat your dinner, and read the newspaper without having to answer 100 questions about what you are going to do for the evening, the weekend, the month, and without having to listen to anyone else tell you the answers to those questions (because you dont really have a choice anyway).
10. You are always on time!! Early is on time, on time is late.


Cons

1.Being on time isnt always that great, sometimes your partner makes you late because they were taking care of your "morning wood".
2. There is something to be said for an annoying nagging voice in the morning to get you out of bed. Sometimes i guess you kind of miss it..
3. Making your own decisions and thinking for yourself isnt always that great.
4.Everything is optional. Nothing is definite. In a relationship, for me.. She is ALWAYS there, i can count on her companionship..

There are definately more pros than cons, but.. those few cons got me thinking... Is being single really what i want to do???? Guess we'll see.... Stay Tuned
