Is it so wrong to be single and happy?
First of all, I'm sorry if this post looks like I'm venting my disappointment and anger.
I'm 26 this year. In my country people my age usually already got married (some of my friends even children) and sometimes it disturb me. Why? Because sometimes when I go out to meet older people or other friends (who already got married) they would annoyingly ask about why I'm still single. Well, I usually just answer them with a forced smile and said "I'm still enjoying my life". And I really am enjoying my life! I learn so much about my life, what I don't like, what I really like, what kind of person I'm really looking for... etc.
I love my job. I resigned from a big company just to work by myself as a freelancer designer and I do really well and love my job. But people just don't understand.
"Don't work so hard, you'll get older and you'll be too old to get married."
"You're a workaholic, maybe that's why you're still single."
"Maybe you should go out, find someone nice."
Well, I can get anyone in a minute (boy or girl), but again, is that really necessary? I want to get married, but not now. :(
ah don't worry about others people.....you only believe in yourself...just look at you ....you are already a designer & working hard...you will find someone really nice at right time...if you want to stay single that's entirely your choice nobody has the right to say anything.... you are doing great ...just continue ..with that...you will succeed m......

As long as you're happy, there's nothing wrong with being on your own. People will always have something to say. I've been with my partner in a very stable relationship for many years and a couple of years ago, people started wondering when we'd move in together. When we did, they asked when we're going to stop renting and buy our own place. Now th......

I think being single gives people an outrageously huge opportunity to find out what and who they are in this world.
Maybe working passionately is what you're meant to do, or what drives you further to proceed in life.
Why be committed when you can explore everything and not have to worry about a man/woman expecting you back home?
Like, I'm 18yrs......

Definitely there's nothing wrong with being single and happy. It's much better than being committed to a relationship but you're unhappy. Society may dictate what you should do but remember it's your life if you're satisfied with how you are right now then why force yourself for something you think you wouldn't like, right? It doesn't have to be ri......

You sound a lot like me actually! I'm hitting 30 and single but every year is better than the last. I love my job, I love my friends, I love where I live and I don't feel I need to change that right now. Would I like to get married and have kids one day? Yea, sure that'd be nice but it's not a necessity. Kind of like how I'd like to learn anoth......

It's fine to be single, it's just that many people think the married life is something just bound to happen.

There isn't anything wrong with being single and being happy, make sure to enjoy your life to the fullest!
However... You said you do want to get married, I'm assuming this means you also want to have children? In this case you need to start thinking of your biological clock a bit. (I'm assuming you're a girl, you can ignore most of what I said ot......

There is definitely nothing wrong with being single. You don't always need to have someone by your side to be happy (though that is sometimes the case for some people), you find your own happiness in your own way. If you like to do whatever you're doing now and you're happy, that's good for you. There's nothing wrong with wanting to prioritize your......
