As much as I love being married, I feel like this sometimes also. Knowing you're going to share the rest of your life with someone is a wonderful feeling that gets better as you get older. But life loses a lot of its mystery, too.

I have found that people tend to miss what the do not have, but once they have it, they miss what they gave up.

I'm married and I date my wife, does that count?

Romantic relationships are like ferris wheels: they look like they might be fun from a distance, but to get on one, you end up spending a long, long time standing around waiting in line, then you have a few quick ups and downs, and spend far more time than you remembered strapped into a cramped and uncomfortable seat, dangling over empty space, waiting for the wheel to lurch one way or another.

I guess that's one way to look at it...lol.

I miss my girlfriend Not because of sex or anything like that (we never actually slept together since neither of us are really promiscuous), I just miss her as a person. We still talk though and may get together in the future...she just needs some time to think about her life direction. So not all is lost...and if that doesn't work out, ah well, move on

You never slept together.. so u never got to find out if she's a snorer or not.. !

you do know what the definition of promiscuous is right?

oh, the letdowns!

 

[thirdlegstump]

I miss my swinging nights as I am currently a one woman man. Actually I could be a multi-woman man if I wanted to..I guess.

Occasionally I do. And then I remember why I'm single and am once again glad to not be at the mercy of the will of others.

 

[SpecialEd]

Damn straight.

I very much want to be in a relationship. Not being in one absolutely sucks.

I miss dating a lot. Single life has its benefits, but it doesn't make up for having no one to love or confide in. Not to mention the fact that sometimes it really sucks looking for someone new.

This is what friends are for.

 

[alkemyst]

being single was cool for me for I was out a lot and having a lot of fun.

The downside was there are the problems of one person looking for something the other is not, no one you can really trust / talk to about certain things...

Upside of married/couple life is you always have someone there that you can at least tolerate.

 

[shimsham]

only thing i miss is the strange. the rest is just a bunch of bs and im happy to be married.

I have many friends that I love like brothers, but there are some things that should only be heard by a lover's ears.

I love being married. The freedom I miss stems more from parental responsibilities than marital.

 

[meltdown75]

i don't miss being single. too many wild & crazy women out there. i like the one that i found - she's a gem!

:heart: married 2+ years, still loving every minute of it.

of course, i'm allowed to look! :shocked:
