Women are absolutely vicious. I swear to you even the most good looking guys get totally shut down by most women. As a guy who has been told I'm attractive my entire life, I still probably get rejected 20x for every 1 truly interested girl. Women do not have to go through this. They are used to success nearly every time. They get placed on pedestals, it goes to their heads, and they think they are just too good for most men. On the other hand, us guys get rejected so many times, yet we just have to suck it up, swallow our pride, and keep on trying. It definitely wears on you after a while and can get to your self-confidence after so much. Men have to have thick leather skin with women today.

I was at a bar with some friends one time and 2 girls walked over and approached us. They introduced themselves, made small talk, you know. I was honestly shocked because why would 2 girls approach us? But ok, we aren't the worst looking guys and we are both successful men...he had a good job and I was in grad school en route to a great career. Anyway, after about 5 minutes of small talk they asked if we all wanted to do shots together. We agreed and things were clicking. They just kind of stood there after suggesting that we all do shots, so to end the awkwardness my friend went to buy the round. We each took our shots, put the glasses down and the girls said "We will be right back! Just going to the bathroom". They go in the bathroom, and come out 2 minutes later with their heads down, walk quickly past me and my friend, and leave. This is the kind of BS guys have to deal with. You do something nice, they take advantage, then they leave and it's on to the next guys they can fool for free stuff. This is common practice for girls today. Girls nowadays are mostly sloppy in classless outfits throwing up on themselves in bars, peeing in the streets, and gold digging trash bags. So girls, trust me...you have NO idea how hard it is to be a guy. Try being called a creeper 100x every night just for walking up to a girl. Try buying shots for people then having them walk out using you for free alcohol. Try finding a girl to take home to mom as she pees in the middle of the street falling into her own puddle then throwing up as her friend holds her hair back.

What a bright and happy statement – in so many ways!
The words are a fundamental affirmation of freedom, a freedom that begets dignity, as they simultaneously celebrate the life force, single or otherwise.

Not only do the philosophies stated belong to a self-sufficient, self-confident single person, like Dr. Fisher, but also to a married man like me. My wife and I eat dinner when we wish, separately or together, we work independently of each other at all hours. We live under the same roof, but it is not necessary to sleep in the same room, or the same floor. Though we are each a serial monogamist, it is the freedom to be who we are that connects our dots without guilt, and each of us in turn fosters strong friendships with the other gender. Whether or not we are aberrant remnants from the traditional hunting and gathering societies that Dr. Fisher references, freedom is, in its first blush, an individual experience – indeed a thrilling tune – I suggest giving four minutes to Sting and the Police “If You Love Somebody Set Them Free”, and do a little dance – single or otherwise!

I would agree. And on top of that, many women in this day and age just don't get what guys have to deal with on a day-to-day basis, or even care for that matter. I would assume it's because they're trying to figure out what the best course of action is in a world filled with mixed signals. We've got a whole generation of women who are confused as to whether or not they should be independents and give men lots of shit while fighting for their place in a job, or to let their hearts open up and relax and treat men well. Girls have told me all kinds of stuff, and it's just from people spreading word of mouth garbage as women try to find themselves in a world which is mixed between glorifying independence and glorifying relationships.

I sure hope that our world does eventually come to a balance when it comes to this whole ordeal, cause there's a huge push going on when it comes to women's rights, and many women are using it as a means to irrationally treat good men like shit.

While I totally get 'singlehood' and enjoying the freedom of time, choices, and focusing on self, there's something to be said about truly joining with someone as a partner in life. To someone who enjoys sharing life, being home on time is not a big deal or a problem. Making choices with someone also has it's pluses; trying new things, helping others, and getting gratification from 'outside' oneself.....I enjoy everything you said about being single. I am going through a time where I need to focus to accomplish some things. But, if I had a supportive partner, it would make that achievement that much better. I hope to share it with someone soon.

Liz, It is interesting that you think Justin is insane, however he does bring up some good points. In this gender equality generation, why is going dutch a dirty word? I find it refreshing when my date offers to pay half, not that I am expecting it but it tells me she values the chance to meet just as much as I did....regardless of whether the date went well or not; she is still willing to put her money on the line....If you want equality then act like it...

I don't think I would even waste time "comparing" things I like about them with things I don't like. Train your brain and thus your thoughts to not even contemplate on the dislikes. If you think about it, you can't help but relate it outwardly even slightly unless you feel you possess a professional's "poker face" smiling.

Consider how you treat your real friends, the way you naturally with ease simply brush off their inequities as if they are not even there, you get use to those just being around them all the time. Do this with a first date and maybe we will find that we actually treat them as a close friend, and that's always a plus+ for letting them feel totally comfortable around you without them feeling you're using a facade or guise, which can easily present the opposite and unwanted effect!

This is a very interesting exercise in understanding and excepting self.
1) Being at peace knowing my happiness is all on me.
2) Having time to explore my creative side.
3) The feeling of knowing if I choose to do something, it is clearly what I want to do, how I want to do it, and when I want to do it.

First of all I would like to thank for sharing with us these wonderful comments and at the same
time encorage us to wrie about the singlehood advantages. We can all write about them and compare and learn from each other.

To me one of the first advantage of enjoying and value singkehood is :
1. Independence of doing what I enjoy the most which is writing/listening to music/going dancing/
eating what I want when I want.....
2. Spending time with my daughter the way we like the most (going to art galleries/museums/ visiting
NY our favored place)
3. Traveling!
