Single vs coupled ftw~!

For decades now, there has always been arguments regarding the weightage of perks of being either a single person of a coupled person. Lets do this post in point form! :D

Perks of being single:

  • Save cash
  • No commitments whatsoever to anyone(except family of course! Must be filial :D)
  • Have plenty of time for yourself
  • Combine the first 3 perks and you can have an easier life because you can generally put more time and effort on whatever project/assignment/work you need to finish up, improving quality and reducing the impact of its workload due to proper time management(unless you're a procrastinator then this point totally ruled out xD)
  • Can flirt around with many girls at the same time ;)
  • Gets alot of attention (if you're good looking or something liddat)
  • DON'T HAVE TO SEE THE SAME FACE EVERY SINGLE DAY LOL LOL LOL(courtesy of K**** xD!)


Cons of being single:
  • Loneliness(worsens when their coupled friends tells their love stories, or certain special occasions that were spent alone)
  • If no best friend and not that close to family, then no place to turn to for comforting and secret sharing and stuffs like that
  • Nobody to take care of you when you're old and frail(applies also to the longer living one of the couple) - courtesy of Alex xD
  • I can't think of any now... lol!


The list can go on and on for different people as they experience different things in life, but I think its safe to say that this can be a somewhat general list of pros and cons of being single? Now why didn't I do the same for couples? It's because every single couple in this planet Earth turns slowly...its hard to say i rather stay awake when I'm asleep is ever so unique and different. One shall NEVER EVER SAY things like "she should like bla bla bla cuz that's normal for a gf to do right?" No it's totally not normal. Lol! We are made the way we are, flawed in different ways. If everyone also follows some sort of coupling rules, then what's the point of us struggling so hard to choose and to feel for someone, sometimes extremely impossible to get? Might as well just pick one random person because in the end, they follow the rules and you will be guaranteed of happiness. So yeah, I don't believe in coupling shoulds and shouldn'ts. It's wonderful, perfect, happiness if you follow them, but if you don't also I'm sure something else you possess will somewhat cover that "weakness" of yours. Look harder for these perks if you think your other half you're dating now doesn't follow the shoulds and shouldn't properly.

As much as people can argue about statuses and which is better, I believe that coupling is the only way of living. In terms of biology, you can turn on your TV, switch to National Geographic channel, and it will show you that every single animal in this world have only 1 purpose of living, which is to ensure the survival of its species, which is done easily by mating. So following what Mother Nature did to everyone else occupying this planet, I assume us human should also do the same. Sure being single rocks mostly for its peak drop of responsibilities, but I think for 1 to really mature, he/she has to take in responsibilities and do what we were meant to do! MATE! Biologically speaking of course ;)! Sorry-la I'm a science student xD!

Jokes aside, if you think being free now is great, wait til you're 90 and alone in your gigantic mansion that you worked for with your own flesh and blood. You'll realise how awesome it is to have a lifetime companion with you. At least that person can help clean the darn house xD! Of course, you can always opt to have a loveless relationship with your gazzilion hired maids :D! Because if you have money, you can have SEX! Just no love. LOLS

OMG I FORGOT SHOULD BE IN POINT FORM NOOOOOO XDDD
