Single VS Coupled

Do single people want to hang out with coupled people all the time?
Answer: No! It's depressing to sit there and even if the couple aren't lovey, you still know they are together and can see the special connection that they have, it makes the single people jealous and disappointed that they can't find someone to share those things with.

Do single people enjoy holidays like Valentine's Day and birthdays?
Answer: Sometimes! Who doesn't like a good Birthday party??? Everyone does! You can do that with anyone! Would it be nice to spend it with a special person? YES!!!! Most single people ignore Valentine's Day. At least I do.

It's a fact that no one likes being the third wheel. Whether it be hanging out with someone and their special someone, or hanging out with two friends who are on the same wave length that night. It makes the time spent uncomfortable for the "third wheel". Of course, on the other side of things, people don't usually intend to make someone feel like the third wheel, but trust me even though your intentions are good it does happen and there isn't anything you can do to stop it from happening.

As for holidays, everyone loves holidays and they want to spend it with people they love and want to be with. Whether it be friends, family or whatever. Coupled people don't seem to understand that the single person doesn't want to spend it alone, hell they spend every other day home alone, when it's a birthday or something, they want to do something fun and something different and be with people. Why should it be like every other day, where you go home and you have a nap in the afternoon and then watch TV? Coupled people who spend their birthdays alone, because their partner is away for business..they of course miss their partner, but at the same time, they don't spend every other day alone, so this is a treat for them.

Now, on the other side of things, let's look from the coupled persons point of view for a moment.

Single people often get angry with their coupled friend (or frustrated rather then angry) because they don't like to do the same things they used to. They check to see what the other half is doing before making plans to go out with the girls/guys. Understandable, it's not that they report to that person, they just want to be respectful to their partner in informing and discussing plans. Although it gets annoying to the single group, it is understandable if they were to stop and think of what they would be like in a relationship if the guy/girl just made plans to go out with friends before discussing it with them first. It's just a respect thing.

Coupled people tend to worry about their single friends. Of course, they wish and hope that they will find someone who will treat them right, and maybe they will like this one. Coupled people try their hardest to include their single friends in what they do, as they don't want to lose the friendship. The single person doesn't want to lose the friendship either. Priorities are different between coupled people and single people, ok not really priorities, but interests are different. Single people like to go out to meet new people, expand the social circle (not that coupled people don't like to do that from time to time) while coupled people tend to spend the time and energy maintaining the friendships and relationships that they currently have. They hardly feel the need to expand their circles, they have what/who they want in their lives, single people mostly want to expand their circle to help find "the one" (if there is such a thing).

So that is my rant for today! I'm gonna use this blog more I think...at first I just wanted it to be a happy place to put all my happy memories and what not, but now, I'm just gonna write about whatever I want to and today I'm feeling down a bit and so you are all gonna read about it! HAHA
