    It doesn't bother me being single, because I'm happy with it.

    I've been single for 9-10 months and it doesn't bother me at all - right now, I think I'm too selfish to have someone else in my life to think about! :)

    I don't like being single! I haven't been single that much in my adult dating life (only 3 or 4 months at a time at most). For the last 2 and a half years I've been in a relationship and I can't imagine being without him.

    Being single sucks. I'd much rather be in a relationship. Though at times it is nice not to have to worry about anybody else but yourself. :)

    Yeah, me too. :)

    I love being single at the moment. From the age of 15 until I had just turned 18 I had never been properly single, not because I was scared of being single but just because I jumped from one relationship to the next due to liking so many different guys!

    I've now been properly single, with the exception of a brief 2 week long relationship, for about 4 months and it's great!

    Hate being single:( But would rather be single than with someone who didn't make me happy. I think my fear of being single is down to low self esteem, so I think I should fix that first, because otherwise any relationship I went into would probably be doomed, thanks to my clingyness and jealousy.

    I'm not bothered about being single itself, I just worry about the reasons why I'm single. :nervous: But take it as it comes, I say. Anything's better than being with someone you hate, but if that were the case, you'd leave them pretty soon, wouldn't you?

    i'd quite like a go at being single...been attached since I was 16 (i'm now 22)

    Hmmm.......I'm sure that won't be true if you ever do split up, as you obviously aren't someone for being single, and IF you ever did break up, i'm sure after a few months of getting over it you would get another boyfriend.

    Personally, I don't fear being single, I don't like it, but
    I dont fear it, i'm definately one for being in a relationship as I love the feeling of knowing somebody loves you for who you are, and being able to reciprocate their love. Although being single does have it's advantages, being able to go out and pull anyone you like and not have the feeling of guilt if you do, and being able to be selfish too, always being able to do what you want to. And although I do prefer being in a relationship, I aren;t afraid to end them if I am not happy in it, or if I don;t feel for someone else what they feel for me or what I felt for them at beginning of relationship.

    I don't mind being single actually. I thought I'd hate it, but I've been single for about 3 months now after being in a relationship for 3 years and I'm really not bothered at all! Is actually quite a nice change! :)

    I broke up with a boyfriend back in January, after not being single basically from the age of about 13. I was terrified of being alone, I'd had two boyfriends between then and now, and both of them were pretty long term and the relationships overlapped. Being single was one of my biggest fears, simply 'cuz I thought life would be so dull and pointless without someone there for me. However, when the relationship ended I found that actually being single enabled me to learn lots of things about myself, increased my self-confidence and my trust in myself. I think a lot of the time if you're in a long term loving relationship the idea of being single is extremely daunting and scary for a lot of people, but if a relationship does end then I think a lot of people learn that actually they are stronger and more independent than they ever thought they were :)

    i hated being single, i was for 18 years.

    but now i'm with someone who really likes me, not been together very long though. i do like being in a relationship, knowing that there is someone who finds me sexy and nice and all the rest of it. i'm a lot happier in myself.

    it's not a clingy, close relationship though, which is nice. so i still have freedom to do whatever i want when i want most of the time. :)

    Never gone longer than a week? You must be really hard to console after finishing with someone, the type who takes months to get over a relationship are you not?

    I went out with somebody for two years between 18 and 20, when we finally split it was quite liberating - I thought for myself again :)

    I've now been almost a year and a half single, the lack of action sucks and the lack of companionship is a frustrating. The real problem though is not being single so much as it is the feeling that I can't attract people anymore :( I'm sure I could pull, but I've never been the most outgoing and I worry that I'm running out of the years where it's easy to meet women (2 years of Uni left).

    So yeah, I guess a fear being single, especially recently.

    I fear not being single. :) I like being single as i'm a selfish git who likes being able to run their life around their own timetable and no one elses. Saying that no-one's ever really held my interest that much so maybe one day i might meet someone that does and completely change my mind. *isn't holding her breath.
