In hindsight i would have chosen to stay single

Desth is uncertain especially incresse heart attack due to covid vax. Best thing i could have done is be single and take care of my parent and fool around with diff girls anytime i want

Getting married is way better than dying alone.

To your question, how sure are you that getting married wont enrich your life as well.

We are social creatures. We are not designed to live alone. At the end years, 60's 70's, how many of your yumcha buddies will be around or lepak with you. Most of the time you'll be alone.

Anyway, being with someone, making your other half happy, has its own fulfillment.

Why do u assume people that decided to be single they will die alone?

I have 1 late uncle that never married and stay single for the rest of this life. When he almost passed away, my family and other relatives are together watching him passef away

Ppl mindset change overtime.

You may think that being single is good enough for now, but when you grow older and your mindset will be the opposite.

At that time you are too ego to admit that you prefer married life and say things like 'I prefer freedom and being single. It is so much fun' but deep down inside your heart you actually want someone to accompany you. Someone that can share with you your happiness, your ups and downs and even take care of you when you are old and sick.

Like someone said, marriage is an investmest with risk

But what if both old & sick, then who take care?

Seems they got married due to other ppl's wishes. Not by own choice. Obviously set up for failure.

My advise is please take your time if you plan to get married.

Ensure both families are introduced and welcoming of each other. For some they may feel this is not important as getting married is to start their own life but trust me, it will matter. Support and understanding from both families should be made one of the top priority.

Make sure your partner is the ONE. Some say both of you should be best friends as to go through marriage life is going to be tough. Need a lot of compromise and tolerance.

If there is a positive environment surrounding your marriage most likely everything will be fine.

is it better to marry or stay single?

marriage is a lifetime commitment to another person, and another family.

We have not explored the different possibilities to be offered by the world. ppl with different characters, different career opportunities, etc.

If you are a person longing for freedom and flexibility, would you still get married with the person who you have been together for many years (more than 5 years)?

try to live the single bohemian free life until you are 50.

then tell me u enjoy or not?

I see so many single guys reached 50 but don't seem to have direction in life. They want to go travel round the world but nobody to go with. They asked other guys, but other single guys think eh so ghey one, don't want to join. They asked other girls, girls think I don't want to join 50 yo uncle. Some more those 50 yo uncle, maybe got money but they also have preference for younger gals, when they look at 50 yo auntie, they say don't want lah, no quality.

I also see some 50 yo guys buy a lot of man toys like mercedes, most expensive mountain bikes, superbikes, gundam toys, but in the end just play with it themselves.

In the end what is the point eh?

Got all the moneh, got all the time but don't know where to spend it.

Got some even very filial, spend a lot of times with their parents, take them out for makan, take them overseas, hire maid for them. That is good. But some of my single friends at that age, feeling depress because they see death all around them, they take care of their dementia parents, don't see life around them.

Then everyday in office, people look down on single guys. Some people even dread working for single unmarried dragon lady in their 50s. True story, i heard got one bitch unmarried lady like to punish her staff if they get pregnant, put them into dead end jobs.

I would say "To each their own". Everyone has their opinion on whether a person should stay single or be married. And most of the time they will think that the option that they choose for themselves is the best one.

Whatever decision you make, just make it because you want to, and not because of what other people think.

since this is serious /k

i try to give u serious answer

this really driven to your own preferences and also financial

if you already 40+ ; no plan to have kids ; just stay single and YOLO [you can have gf if u found out someone that also dont want kahwin]
>if you already in this scenario then baru have kid and start to commit everything ..u need to expect to work all the way until 65 (atleast till kid uni graduate)

i seen few uncle that 50+ but single (never kahwin) ; just YOLO je

if takut mati just go beli nirvana package ..atleast someone help u pack nicely

Married with kids, always have excuse not to work extra hours. Need to bring kids to _____(fill up yourself)

Living with someone you cannot leave will make you more mature, more mellow, in my observation. I have school mates not married, age 40 still childish.

If you got money, lots of money then both life is not a problem.
Single with money you can employ someone to take care of you and pay for good medical care to stay healthy for longer.
Married but to money if you are healthy you have to take care of your wife. If your wife is healthier then you have to see her suffering to take care of you, but it won't happen if you got money.

I think I can save more money being single.
