Soltero o en pareja: ventajas y desventajas de cada situación

No hay una respuesta correcta o incorrecta a esta pregunta porque todo el mundo tiene derecho a tener su propia opinión y hacer su propia elección.

Hay mucha gente que dice que cuanto más educada y exitosa es una chica, más probable es que es soltera. Las chicas solteras pueden hacer lo que quieran, tienen todo el mundo para ellas.

Es muy difícil responder si es mejor estar soltero o en pareja, teniendo en cuenta las estadísticas que dicen que alrededor del 43% de las mujeres de entre 18 y 49 años no están casadas, y que son más las mujeres de entre 25 y 44 años que deciden vivir solas que 30 años antes.

Entonces, ¿qué está pasando? ¿Es realmente mejor estar soltero? Bueno, definitivamente es mejor estar soltero que en una mala relación.

There is a conception that single girls are incapable of having a deep relationship with someone. You should definitely know that people’s opinions  are not relevant to your life.

Una de las ventajas de ser soltero es que chicas solteras son más ambiciosos, encuentran su final feliz en su carrera y eso es genial. Eso suele significar que, debido a ello, su vida afectiva no será tan importante para ellos.

Además, los solteros están más conectados con su trabajo que los casados y, al igual que con el trabajo, están más conectados con sus padres, hermanos o hermanas, amigos, vecinos y compañeros. Si eres soltero, lo bueno es que puedes ligar y divertirte todo el tiempo, pero desgraciadamente eso dura poco.

At some point, it is not interesting anymore. The problem with being single is there is no support or romantic love in life, only some occasional relationships which don’t last and have no emotional meaning. Eventually, almost every single person starts missing that at some point in their life.

Estar en una relación no sólo significa estabilidad, sino también eficacia, porque tienes un apoyo increíble en todo lo que haces y eso es muy motivador para cualquier persona.

The greatest benefit is that you are never alone—at any time of day or night, you can call the person you love. Your partner becomes your friend and someone you can rely on. That feeling of being in love, being close and intimate with someone, makes you happier and, research says, even healthier.

One of the shortcomings of being in a relationship is that you can’t have all the time for yourself without thinking about anyone else. No one is forcing you, even unintentionally, to cambiar y adaptarse a algunas cosas.

But there is also the fact that you don’t care about changes if you really love that someone. We can be happy alone, that is for sure. But not everyone wants that. People are supposed to love and be loved and that feeling of being in love releases a hormone of happiness in our body. We should not avoid love. Love is not bad, it is not pain.

Love is the greatest feeling of them all, it changes us, makes us better. People get disappointed in love because they didn’t meet the right person or maybe they were not the right person for that someone because they were not ready. But we shouldn’t give up, we must give love a second and third chance. If you had a bad experience, it doesn’t mean you should forget about love; at that moment, focus on yourself, and when you are ready, the right person will show up.

There are so many reasons why it is good to be single—for example, it cleans your mind, gives you creativity, it significantly increases your confidence, it gives you independence, helps you with your perception, reduces stress and anxiety, it helps you set priorities, improves your productivity, strengthens your relationships with other people in your life and, finally, you make yourself emotionally strong.

There are also many benefits to being in a relationship—for example, you don’t need to pretend that you are in the mood if you are not, you know that eres amado y aceptado, you can be yourself all the time, in a healthy relationship you can still experience the fun that a single person has, being able to fully trust someone is so important when trying to figure out your life, you can increase the status of your relationship slowly, without the pressure to jump into marriage that can come later in life, and you help recognize each other’s flaws and push each other to become a better person.

Some people spend their whole life single and they feel amazing, while others get married just to avoid other people’s comments. That is definitely wrong. In the end, we can conclude that there is no better or worse, there is only our inner guidance that tells us what is the best for us.
