whiskeyforyourthoughts asked: It's apples and oranges. Being single you have nobody to share your life with, nobody to care for and nobody to care for you with every fiber of their being, plus nobody to hold and fall asleep with. Being in a relationship you miss the ability to flirt, to do what you want. You always feel jealous and worried about where they are. There are pros and cons of each but yeah, a working relationship > single. Plus it's nice to make love to someone other than your left hand.

I’ve realized that kids my age (or at least in my circle of friends) have trouble finding a true purpose in life. Truthfully, there really is no ‘point’ to what we do on earth. We’re here, we work, we die. I think that’s why being in a relationship is important. It gives a purpose to our life. Someone to take care of, someone to distract us from the pointlessness of our own being. I know it sounds kind of morbid but we really aren’t much without love.
