Occasionally I feel the big green monster sneaking up on me when I hear some of the single Girlspokers discuss their hot new dates for the weekend or the anonymous sex they had the other night. Although I am very satisfied and happy with my boyfriend (we’re coming up to our three year sentence anniversary) I do miss that fiery, spunky, independence that can only come from a single woman fending for herself and loving it. So without further ado, I give you why I wish I was single again, and why I love having a boyfriend.
Top five things I miss about being single:
1. First kisses
2. First kisses in the back alleyway of a bar with your skirt pulled up around your thighs and not even bothering to take his number afterwards
3. Boozy girl's nights out on the prowl
4. Flirting with intent (because lord knows I still flirt now – I just shut them down with the “Sorry, I’ve got a boyfriend” line at the last minute)
And the top reason I miss being single…
5. Putting more notches on my bed post (AKA the joy of “new” cock)
Top five things I love about being in a relationship:
1. Always having a date for office Christmas parties and friend’s weddings
2. Never having to hear “I can’t believe you’re still single” from tactless relatives
3. Having someone who is willing to support you financially once you get fired during the fucking Christmas season by your lying boss
4. Having someone around to fix light bulbs/kill bugs/hold your hair back when you’re puking-up that nights 3 bottles of wine
And the top reason I love being in a relationship…
5. Always knowing where my next fuck is coming from

To be single or not to be single
Being single is great, but having someone love you exactly how you are is wonderful. For someone to know you, all your dorkiness and awkwardness and love you for all of it is great.
Reading you all makes me feel like I am the biggest prude.
I serisouly wonder if city girls get more than like us I guess “country girls” or maybe “small town girl” is a better description.
They make me feel like a prude and quite frankly I am the most vile, rude, sick, flirtatious, man-whoring lush in the world…and yet these girls come up with stuff that makes me look like a straight-edge church going well mannered person.
However, I have to agree. I am just coming out of a relationship and quite frankly at 21 it’s not hard being single…I just liked not having to wonder if I was going to get some, who it was going to be from, when it was going to happen, would I be itching the next morning, does this look like herpes to you, oh my god what is wrong with it?
It sucks having to go out and look for it…I typically spend too much time and money in the bar/club/any god damn place I can get tanked just to get sex…but oh well, you got to do what you have to do.
Although Friday is coming up…and everyone like me knows what that means regardless of being male or female. All the college kids are back home for the holidays…so everyone have a terrific Friday and while your at it do tonight and Thursday up well too.
I was just at a party where I watched my newly single friends flirt it up with the hot guys and wished I could be doing the same. But then I went home to a nice warm bed with a very sexy man in it that I knew would be waiting for me. The grass is always greener……but you have to be thankful for what you do have.
So all of the reasons why it’s nice to be in a relationship deal with personal convenience?
No Bud, it’s not just personal covenience, but my boyfriend’s mom reads this blog, so I can’t divuldge the real reason while I love being with him…
There’s nothing as good as being single…:D
Well put, Betty, well put! I agree with all 10 things you wrote. I think it’s all about balance: keep up those boozy prowl nights with the ladies and the casual flirting, but remember who you’ve got waiting at home. I love that I share a bed with my favorite drinking buddy.
How about being in a relationship and being single secretly? Oh F***. What was that again?
I’m so glad I’m in a committed relationship so I can finally understand articles like this. Well, except for the “skirt around your thighs” bit. I haven’t worn a skirt in AGES. joke…
