Being single is something that people might fret over. It might make some people depressed. It is easy to understand. Everyone wants someone to love and to be loved by someone. In order to quell this misery, a man will climb mountains and jump through hoops just to find someone to be with. A man will do all of that even if the woman he finds isn't that great. It is a sad state to be in.
When it comes to personal relationships, you have the choice to forsake intimate relationships. You have the choice to work long and hard to find a lasting and meaningful relationship. You also have the choice to do anything in between. Every man is different and every man needs different things. Also, every choice will have pros and cons.
If you are single and don't want to pursue any relationships, that is fine. The disadvantages of this is that it is easy for a man to get lonely or experience some depression. A man can also feel several urges go unfulfilled.
The benefits are often overlooked however. By not getting involved in relationships, you have less moving parts in your life. Without another person to consider, you do what you want when you want without having to think about another person. You don't have to worry about getting a girlfriend gifts, taking her out, remembering her birthday, or caring for her if she gets sick. You also don't have to worry about problems should she get upset with anything you decide to do. In this sense, it is like comparing a revolver with a regular gun. With less moving parts, a revolver is much less likely to jam or malfunction.
When it is you and just you, your emotional well being is not dependent or influenced by another person. I have to say that this is the biggest benefit to going your own way. When you invite other people into your life, they always have the potential to hurt you or screw you over. A girlfriend, wife, or children have this ability. This is because you care for them and are emotionally invested in them.
Sometimes, your potential loved ones would cause you pain and misery unintentionally. This would be the case if your son, daughter, or wife was injured, died, or caught a devastating disease. There is an old saying that states that it is better to love and lost then to have never experienced love but I don't really buy that. I'd rather have a steady mood then experience volatile highs and lows in life.
When it is just you, you don't worry about breakups, fights, a divorce etc. Your emotional well being is entirely up to you.
