Being single

[JoeyB]

Well I must just be lucky. I'm married, get to do most things I want (within reason lol) I have two bikes, two guitars (which I dont even use) and I sometimes leave the toilet seat up...win

Married since I was 18, 56 now and I hope I never have to live without her. I like to think I have her properly trained (she may think differently) Never been stopped from doing or having anything that I have wanted, if anything she encourages my to do and have more. She is the person I most want to be with at any time.

I know I am lucky, extremely lucky to have a good un.

I also have my own toilet and always put the seat down, the thought of splashing all those germs around when I flush is not a nice one.

I always leave the toilet seat up. To this day I have still not had a convincing argument to suggest doing anything else.

And then It suddenly dawned on him why he should put it down.

You get piss in tiny droplets all over your legs when the toilet's flushing, unless you put the lid down. You filthy thing.

Oldspice is female, by the way!

I'm more single than I'd like to be, but I do like being able to do what I like, when I like. The only things holding me back are a cautious nature, lack of money and recent poor health. I don't have to ask permission to do anything. OTOH, I spend 95% of my life alone and I do miss the, er, warm, snuggly stuff ...

I would rather be happily single, than unhappily hitched, but if a happy relationship were possible then of course I'd be happy to be in it!

I lived on my own for 10 yrs, I don't mind my own company but I do think that you get stuck in a rut and justify being on your own by saying that you enjoy being single. This was true for me anyway. Have been in two relationships for the lat 15 yrs and would go back to being single willingly.

"... I do think that you get stuck in a rut and justify being on your own... "

This is exactly the kind of thing that puts me off people in relationships! Apart from a good shag there's not much to be said for a relationship, and even that doesn't last.

Living alone is great - women are nothing but trouble

OK, I was assuming that Old Spice was 'his' favourite after shave.

Didn't know we had ex Spice Girls here on the forum!

Just reread my post

Should have read 'wouldn't go back to being single.....

I love being in my current relationship. Wouldn't change anything (apart from other half having a less stressful job)

Sorry for the confusion

Yes, I was confused - I was just wondering why you were still in the relationship!

IME it boils down to it being something of a double edged sword. Wow at not being able to handle sharing soap though. I've shared a great deal more than soap with people I have been in relationships with.

You mean popcorn and stuff..?

Don't know about popcorn, but I'm sure, er, stuff is correct.

. you wander around in your pants, watch inappropriate television, drain the mini bar, eat steak and chips and masterbate extravagantly.....

Yeah, you're right. Great isn't it?
