What do you think the hardest part of being single is?

For me it has always been the lack of cuddles, lack of sex, and paying bills solo, what is it for you?

Lack of two person sex. Also not having someone there to share your day with.

Someone who's got your back and will be there for you.

Picking what to wear in the morning...

That might sound kind of pathetic, but I pretty much dress only for my partner's eyes. When I'm single I just wear men's clothing in public and nothing when I'm at home, and feel like I'm not doing a good job of presenting myself.

Lack of partnered sex is a bummer, but there are always fuck buddies.

I'm kinda the same way with facial hair too. I'll let it grow out, but if a partner likes it short, I'll shave.

seeing my friends with their significant others, then having to go home or to bed alone. it really takes its toll on a person

I'm glad I'm not the only person who doesn't like going to bed alone.
I love when I get to fall asleep next to someone.

The hardest part is the lack of companionship, sex, laughter, cuddling

Lack of hugs. I mean, I have family that I can (and do) get hugs from, but I can't really sit and cuddle with them, you know? And for a few reasons, the hugs are only a two or three times-a-day occurrence.

For some people that might sound sufficient, but I really, really like hugs!

No sex. I'm not the type for flings and such and I don't like chancing ruining a friendship for "benefits" so being single's only downfall for me is that there is no sex with another person. heh

being so lonely, the fear of having to face life alone and not having the confidence that i can do it.

and a big long list of "fears" about being alone and realizing i'm going to be alone, that i am alone, and i have to take care of myself. my happiness lies in my handss. ugh

laughter, i miss laughter, intimacy, knowing i'm loved, how great it feels to love someone.

i can't wrap my mind around the concept of being happy single. being without the person i believed was "the one". my destiny.

I really enjoy being single, and being alone. I don't want to date, but it sucks not having sex whenever you want it.

Lack of companionship, sleeping alone, not having a women's opinion on the stupid stuff I do, no cuddling, god I miss the cuddling. Just laying there holding one another for hours, falling asleep and waking up with them still in your arms... Yeah, being single kinda sucks.

Cuddling and just random getaways. Going through it right now sadly.

i hear ya on the chores. it was motivating to get stuff done together. chores and errands are horrible for me alone. though keeping the house cleaner alone. one thing i can say is i don't think i ever took any of it for granted. i liked when i got spoiled and he did stuff for me. little things like laying there with a headache without him to bring me aspirin. on the same note, i miss having someone to do stuff for, making a difference with the little things. the love will always be there, but no way to express and show it.

and i miss seeing his face when he was still checking me out. seeing him undress me with his eyes even though he had recently seen me naked. love and lust, miss that. miss him

The loneliness gets me the most, and the negative mental tapes that go on and on ... "No one will ever want you", "He couldn't stand you anymore", "You can't hold onto anyone unless they're as dysfunctional as your ex-husband", "You're too ugly for anyone to want", "You fucked it up somehow" ...

Dating is definitely hard!

I would've thought there were more cute nerdy girls online!

I've always been a loner but what gets me most at times is sleeping alone, lack of cuddling, and not having someone there to lean on when I need shoulder to cry on.

I'm so lonely...I find myself crying a lot since I feel like I'll never actually have a boyfriend again due to me being sick all the damn time. Damn, now I feel sad...I really miss the closeness of having someone by my side instead of being alone in a big, cold and mostly empty bed.
