Advantages and disadvantages of being single

When William Shakespeare stated, "To be, or not to be: that is the question" he wasn't referring to "marriage."
As with William Shakespeare I am not here to debate if single life is better or worst than married life; I am only going to state some facts that us single folk have encountered....


Advantage: Balancing your checkbook is so much easier with only one person.
Disadvantage: There is no "communication mistakes" or another person to blame overdrafts or unbalanced checkbook mistakes on.


Advantage: Your home is as quite or noisy as you decide it to be.
Disadvantage: Sometimes the silence is deafening.

Advantage: You can eat on your timetable....whatever you want.
Disadvantage: Cooking for one is really a pain so cereal and toast become a staple.

Advantages: You can go anywhere, anytime without having to tell anyone.
Disadvantage: You mainly go everywhere alone.

Advantage: You can always go to the movies and see the movie you want to see
Disadvantage: Often times you go alone and have to sit by yourself

Advantage: Things are never moved to new locations and unable to be found when needed.
Disadvantage: You still misplace your things.

Advantage: You can stay up as late as you want and no one gets annoyed.
Disadvantage: You have no one to snuggle with when you do go to bed.

Advantage: Your schedule is your own.
Disadvantage: People assume you have nothing to do in your life so you are available at the last minute for anything and everything.

Advantage: If you have to go to the restroom on a road trip no one is there to complain about it.
Disadvantage: You have to worry about who might be in the rest stop area and how long it might take someone to notice that you have disappeared.

Advantage: Your alarm is the only one that goes off in the morning.
Disadvantage: There is no one to wake you up when you are sleeping through your alarm (like this morning!).

And those are but a few of the advantages and disadvantages of being a single individual!
