Having the partner you want is the best thing ever, having a partner you don't really want any longer is one of the worst things ever.

*shrugs* Depends I guess, Constantly being loved just for who you are feels really nice and boosts your ego somewhat. On the otherhand it will make you stop developing as fast as you would have done as single.

Depends on the woman, but I'd say for the most part better. It feels good to be responsible and have someone there that you can take care of. I'm very family-oriented though...I want to get married as soon as possible, so I may be the exception.
Super serious.

It's not always for the best, but you have to take the good with the bad.

Having a GF is annoying at times but for the most part my life is more enjoyable.

I think it was best summed up by comedian Richard Jeni:

Would you rather be lonely, or annoyed?

Which I think hits the nail on the head. Some people love the freedom, some people hate being alone and want that other person there. Then again, he committed suicide, so take his words with a grain of salt.

Personally, I absolutely LOVE having a woman in my life, in fact, I would go so far as to say it's changed my life 180 for the better. Before I met her (currently my fiancee btw), my life wasn't the greatest... was kinda going no where, I felt like something was missing. Sounds like a line from a bad 3am infomercial, but it was kinda true. She really helped pull me out of my rut so to speak, and helped me change a lot of things for the better... I owe a lot to her actually. Not to say we don't have little fights or agree or all the time, and hell, there are times where I do miss my freedom a little bit... but honestly I wouldn't give it up for anything. I love where I'm at right now in my life; before her I could see nothing but brick walls around me, and now I see a clear path.

Again, sounds pretty cheesey but it's true.

Eh you pretty much summed it up in the OP

A bad relationship = negative

a good relationship = good...


Myself... There have been times when I wished I was single while in a good relationship, but those are usually selfish fleeting emotions... When really pressed I have to say that if the relationship is truly good, then nothing can top it in life.

What more do we want other than the truest possible connection with another human whom we've deemed worthy? (Don't answer that! lmao) Just my 2 cts

Also, I think it was Chris Rock who said something similar... "Single and lonely, or married and bored."

it is nice every now and then to fuss over little details about yourself in the mirror and fret about things to say and oh no what if your hand will be sweaty when it reaches for hers or if tonight please god oh please!! is the night you will kiss her. it is nice every now and then to have to wait for her while she takes a shower and an impossibly long time putting on makeup, because you know it's all for you anyway and you're going to be too happy to care about delays as soon as she's bouncing about so beautifully beside you. it is always nice to see someone else's faults as inexplicably cute and quirky in a good way, and having the same done for you. it is nice to have a phone call waiting for you on late nights at work.

for most of us, it's a shame relationships can't stay as these surreal dreams forever. the rules for dating now are (almost absurdly) lax, we simply haven't met the right people, and/or are too young to be able/want to deal with the responsibility and bullshit that is forced upon older couples. i'm not ready for it now and probably won't be for a loooonnnngggggg time, but i really really cannot imagine anything more truly fulfilling than finding the right hand to your left and committing to each other in a final mature relationship.

i am hardly a romantic and this probably sounds super lame, but sometimes i feel as if everything i do to improve myself is to better serve this quite singular purpose.

Obviously depends on the partner. I know a lot of people who were in not-so-great relationships but they thought it was "ok" because they got used to living/being with that certain someone. But then they got out and met someone else and were telling me how they can't believe they struggled in the previous relationship as they did.

Now for me, if you would have asked me a few months ago I would have been more inclined to say "less enjoyable" since (at least for me, not for everyone, obviously) girls that I TRULY like are really hard to find (yes, I'm picky, no, I don't have any particular reason to be that way, I'm not awesome myself but meh). So most of my relationships have been going nowhere. But the more people I know the more confident I am that there WILL be someone that I will want to spend 100% of my time with. I won't have it any other way.
Im not a n00b, I just play like one.

Men's life expectancy increases if they're married and women's decreases. I think it's worth it.

I met my girlfriend almost a year ago and my life has been great ever since. I started to read a lot more and became much more aware of my education and need for one. Before I had no goals, and she helped me realize that education is important and now I am planning to go to University.

Vague question, not enough options on the poll. It depends on the woman, and the man.

I am currently in a long term relationship with a girl for over 2 years now. I really don't take the relationship as serious as her (she likes me more than I like her).

She will do almost anything for me and this is definitely worth the friendship by itself. Sometimes she can be a huge bitch though and/or just piss me off for being dumb. I can pretty much call her up anytime and get her to go eat somewhere or go somewhere with me. She's reliable company.

She's not a drop dead gorgeous type of girl or the fittest of girls but she can look sexy and has a pretty assertive attitude (even if she is not the most intelligent girl). Also she is pretty good in bed and likes to watch porn more than I do. And she's bi so she is always hooking up with other chicks (usually hot) and will hopefully bring one home one day.

She does have many annoying qualities but I suppose that goes for most friends and you just deal with them.

Overall, I think my life would be worse without her right now. Well I wouldn't say worse, because I'd probably have more money and other female companions. But it would be less easy going. I am content.

PS- She would be totally butt hurt if I told her most of this but she would get over it in a day.


I think this topic is pretty specific to a certain type of guy who lets a girl rule his life. You can't take shit from any ho imo.


PPS- I've had shorter relationships in the past that have inspired me to be a better man, or improve my life in order to improve their life. Those ones got away, it was still worth it though.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
