十个单身做不到的事

最近在网上看到一则 10 reasons to stay single 的文章。
不知道是不是自己 attached 了太久了,
看了,完全不认同。

单身的自由,不代表恋爱就一定是种束缚。
单身的富有,不代表精神上的满足。

虽然有时候也会想念单身的身份,
怀念被追的感觉,暧昧的刺激,

但是如果你已经开始羡慕单身的生活的话,
不妨往回看

为什么这么多人
甘愿进入爱情的坟墓。

为什么这么多人
梦想有属于自己的一个家庭。

为什么这么多人
伤了又伤,还是回去恋爱。

为什么这么多人会为了爱
生死相许。

Your career will benefit

You can enjoy the opportunity of building your career or meeting your long-term goals when you're single without being saddled with the extra baggage or tied down with familial responsibilities. You are free to put in long hours, work on the weekends as you please without having to report your whereabouts to your significant other.


成功的男人背后,一定会有一个女人。
相同的,我也相信,
成功的女人背后,一定会有一个男人。

伴侣不一定是种束缚,
却可以是很大的一种鼓励。

日夜奔波之后,
一通他/她打来的电话,问你今天会不会辛苦,
你便可以把你一整天的怨气都跟他诉苦。

我想工作跟读书差不多吧。
不是读越长的时间越好,
而是要有足够的恒心,
而,伴侣或许就是你最好的推动力。

You can save money

Being single allows you to keep the money you earn. Sure it also means that no one is sharing your utility bills but it's nowhere near the money you will spend if you are hooked up with someone. For instance you have to shell out for anniversary and birthday gifts as well as going out expenses if you have a significant other. It's easier to keep spending in check when you're not financially obligated to anyone but yourself. Plus, you'd be surprised with the increased feeling of self-worth and satisfaction by indulging yourself with your hard-earned money.

钱买得到房子,买不到家。
钱买得到伴侣,买不到爱。
钱买得到奢侈品,买不到填满心灵空虚的东西。

但是买礼物给朋友,甚至爱人的时候,
他们的笑容,
慢慢建立的感情,
无价。

You can enjoy serenity

Think about not having to hear naggings about the mess you made in your bedroom. Instead of someone hogging the side of your bed, you are more rested when you sleep alone. You will appreciate the opportunity to have some quiet time to relax at home. Being single also lets you have more time to discover who you really are, set your personal goals and pursue your passions.

唠叨有唠叨的理由。
考试前夕,看到自己在乎的人还在打电动的话,
你难道不会唠叨他几句吗?
为了你好呢!
对唠叨的人一点好处损失都没有。

还有,谁说有了伴侣就不可以追梦?
有点牵强耶。
伴侣还可以给你意见,
了解你的他/她知道你的强项,
还可以指导你哦。

You'll be worry-free

Difference of opinions brings about heart-wrenching disagreements and arguments. By staying single, you can avoid these altogether and follow your whims to live life as you please. Plus, you don't have to fret about who your partner is going out with or if he's cheating on you.

单身的烦恼要独自承受,独自解决。

如果跟伴侣吵架,
两个人可以借此明白各自的不同,
互相明白,
建立更稳固的爱情基础。
这不是一种负担,
而是一个成长过程。

互相怀疑,过分吃醋 的情侣,
太幼稚了,
散了也罢。

You can dress as you like

When you're single, the world is your oyster. Buy whatever clothings you like without having to deal with judgments from your partner. There's nobody pointing out your flaws. It's the perfect opportunity to dress and style yourself as you wish.

他/她若喜欢你,
就会明白你是怎样的一个人,
有怎样的 style, 喜欢吃什么,喜欢穿什么,
会尊重你。
不会试着逼你改变。


但如果你觉得我哪里怪怪的,不好看,
我也宁愿你告诉我,
免得陌生人用更怪的眼神看着我。
不是吗?

More time with friends

You're absolutely free to hang out with your buddies, party all night and get embarrassingly drunk with nobody to tell you otherwise. Instead of making plans for two and in advance, no one is stopping you from making spur-of-the-moment decisions to go on weekend trips with your friends.

本身不是这种 clubbing 族,
他也不是,
所以觉得喝得烂醉的人有点傻。

情侣之间也有自由阿,
必近,会在一起一辈子,
和朋友出去那几次又何妨?

太 possessive,让人喘不过气的人,
对啦,不要也罢。

一个感情里面,
如果不自在,
如果太牵强,
就放掉吧,不会有幸福的。。。

You can avoid parenthood

Not everyone is cut out for parenthood and bringing up a child is never an easy task. Also, some career-oriented people are probably 'married' to their job, so you don't have to fret if having kids might derail or limit your career prospects.

不喜欢孩子,不要生不就行了。-_-
结婚了不生孩子,
总比单身而不生孩子好多了。

老处男,老处女 的,
难听死了 =P

You can watch whatever you want on TV

Imagine being forced to watch a chick flick or sports channel that you're not interested in. But now, the remote control is all yours. Besides, you can enjoy the luxury of having the couch and ice-cream all to yourself.

哈哈!
我不喜欢看电视!

可以在两个房间装两架电视阿,
反正看电视的时候都没有接触,
挤在一起干嘛。 =S

You don't have to hide or quit your habits

Spending big moolah for your favourite designer shoes? With unlimited shopping privileges, there's no need to hide your purchases to avoid getting an earful from your partner. You can indulge all your bizarre interests and no longer have to fake interests in his or her hobbies.

坏习惯要不得。
你喜欢人家阻止你,
那你就自生自灭吧。

坦白是爱的基本。

More time to find the right soul mate

With love so hard to define these days, how do you know if your feelings are not just infatuations? Staying single for a period of time can potentially help avoid the mistake of the lifetime by marrying or getting attached to someone out of desperation. You can enjoy the endless dating possibilities and flirt all you want with your potential partners.

如果已经找到,
就不用烦恼这点啦!

随着年纪越来越大,
好的对象都被人家拿完了吧。

剩下的,
不一定还有得你来选择。
就像巴刹的水果那样。

但,
不是每个人都需要爱情。
不是每个人都把心灵上的满足看得比钱还重要。

不是每个人都懂得爱,
不是每个人都配被爱。


p.s. 你,主宰你的人生。
