Statisticly it’s been proven that “Life” expectantcy is longer for people involved in long term (example:marriage)relationships. Their is something to be said about “sharing” life’s experiences with a significant “other”. Comfort,confidence that a relationship is meant to be with a particular person(call them a soul mate…whatever)has huge implications. As two separate individuals you choose to become “ONE” not in the physical sense but certainly in the philosophical & spiritual sense.With this in mind it’s much more entertaining to share this experience with someone you love and respect rather than yourself. In your last days you will be very disappointed to “share” your “life’s” story with a nurse’s aid or bathroom mirror.

Yes, I know…its hard to put together a jigsaw puzzle in the wind. Folks who enjoy being single are actually just loners who thrive on intensity, and then sputter their way out of it when the luster wears away. Especially folks who have opportunities that others do not, be they good looking, intelligent or possess any other attractive factor. The bottom line: enjoying being single is a selfish affair with self, and that is not a bad thing, until one tries to unite with another who is the exact opposite. Yes, the claim to enjoy being single basically means “I like to do what I wanna do whenever I wanna do it, and answering to no one is more pleasurable then planning it with someone.” As a single man most of my life, I have been this way and I must tell you, its great telling stories with folks who shared the experience then with folks who have to imagine.

I really like your attitude about being single versus being in a relationship. The world (the black world in particular) would be a better place if more women thought that way.

Maybe your next book should be on this topic (as if there aren’t a bajillion already). “Why are you still single” to me is a statement that comes from people as a sort of psuedo compliment. The easiest answer I can tell those who ask is that after so long I know what works for me and what doesn’t and while there are a lot of good women out there who are single that doesn’t mean they have to like me or I have to like them beyond friendship. Relationships ..err the right relationship isn’t quite that easy to come by in my experience.
