At some point of life when everyone's no longer with you then you'll learn to regret it.

Unker is one of these victim.

Maybe, being single is not the same as being a loner though. So if you're sociable to a certain point, you won't be lonely.

You sounded sour with your current marriage life. Mind sharing?

Being sociable doesn't make your life complete and motivate you when you're lonely.

When your parents are no longer around one day, friends all occupied by their own families maybe already playing with their grandchildren what will you do when you're a lone bachelor by yourself? Your friends are not going to keep you company when you eat on the dining table everyday.

At some point of your life you'll start asking, why I should work hard to earn all these money?When I die who is going to inherit all my work?

Live on earth as just a passer. Donate to charity and die wasted? Had you thought about these points?

Thus it is said that a married man is motivated and focused at his work to build a career for his own family.

On the other hand, the bachelor man is directionless without a purpose as all his hard worked and wealth he built is wasted as soon as he passes away. If you see a dead end in front of you, you still want to continue to head towards it?

I'm not sour by any means and have lived a very fulfilling life. For as long as I can remember, I haven't been single for more than few months for the last 20 odd years of my dating life so I had......a good time. biggrin.gif ......Let's say..apart from having children, I've been there done that.

I don't really need people around me all the time, apart from friends, I have things to keep me occupied that does not need the company of another human being; hence, the part where I need people to grow old with is not a requirement for me.

As for motivation, I'm going places in my career, i separate my private life from my work as I believe it's good to draw the line so that you don't look back and regret that you spend more time on one instead of the other.....

It's true...if i choose to end up alone, all I have will be gone to waste but if I need to die by then, I really won't care where my $$ or property go to.......

Your previous post and your latest seemed to contradict each other. Why so fickle minded, sis?

First you say you prefer a single life, next you declared that you lived a fulfilling life with children.

Not too sure if you're reading me right. I said apart from having children, I have been there done that which means, i've done everything apart from having children.

I don't see how I am contradicting myself anywhere.

You mentioned "fulfilling life" and already having children.

Perhaps you already have plans to past down your business, properties and riches to your children while ill advising others to do otherwise?

Erm.as said, not sure if you're reading me right, I did not say anything about me having children. I said apart from having children, my life has been fulfilling.

Your life's been fulfilling while you're already married. So what's your problem, again? smile.gif

Did I say I have a problem? Stop jumping ahead and I am not married but I do have a gf.
