Is There A Perfect Time To Be Single?

[Poh SIti Dawn]

I see a lot of people in relationships, gearing towards marriage and or (just) children. But when you're in a relationship, is it because you're at a stale moment in your life or because you've just found love?

Thinking of it, ideally, if your life is full of adventure, would you give up your adventure for the sake of love, at a young age (I'm 22) or would you ignore it until you felt as if it were time to start another adventure?

I work for an airline, hit up San Diego, hitting up Vancouver Canada in the beginning of May, plus the other vacations I'm planning, in addition to my savings account which is fueling my move to Germany. If I weren't single would my amount of freedom be jeopardized?

Have you put off relationships so that you could continue your adventure, or do you not have an adventure so you're willing to settle once love has appeared?

Is it a lack of adventure and magical thinking that causes many to settle down at a young age or is it human nature?

What are your beliefs?

I'm havin' a hard time comin' up with a plan to end up with a wife, 2 kids & a house.

I've had this weird journey, where I'm just now--at almost 26--starting to feel like I'm living real life. Like, I've been so isolated over the last eight years (since high school), that, I don't even understand myself really.

But, I feel caught in between growin' up (ie maturing) and settling down.

I think the worst mistake I could make is settling, atm...

I've currently put off relationships because I don't feel like I'm in a position to invite someone to be a part of my life. Until I reach that position, I can't see a serious relationship as being anything more than a burden. I'm also pretty picky about who I involve myself with...I have yet to meet that person who I can definitely see a future with. If I met them then ideally I would want them to partake in this "adventure" you speak of with me.

Another issue is that I eventually want to start traveling alot...this could become an issue if I am in a relationship with someone who can't travel with me. Compound that with the chance of meeting someone else who is a potential mate during these travels, and things can get complicated.

What are your beliefs?

If you mean "settle down" as in a traditional monogamist relationship with kids, I would say that's mostly a cultural thing that has people feeling like it's what they must do. Naturally, I would say most people don't want to end up alone so they seek a mate.

Personally, I think you first need to know yourself before deciding on whether or not to settle down. If you don't even know who you are or what you want out of life, you probably won't be happy settling down because you haven't fully realized what's best for you.

When you know you don't feel like putting up with someone else's antics.
When you're on the come up.
When you know your intentions is really just to fukk.
When you are heartbroken.
When you are on bum status

I think it's a personal choice. Some people meet when they're young, get married and mature together, others wait until they're older and feel mature to make such decisions.

I don't think there's a right or wrong way of doing it's just figuring out what's right for you and not regretting your decision

All of these are good responses. For those who aren't looking for a relationship, do you think it shows?

Spring/Summer time...

Winter is cuffing season.

But, I feel caught in between growin' up (ie maturing) and settling down.

Then it is the worst mistake YOU could make.

Don't EVER get into a relationship, to just be in a relationship...find yourself first.
