What single folks are thinking...

Hey Everyone -- I would love to get your thoughts...

Share with us below: what do you think your single friends envy about their married friends? For women who are already married, this could be your own confessions from when you were dating or it could be on your on friends who have already tied the knot.

Whether it's a funny or serious confession -- we want to hear what single ladies are envying the most about their married friends!

Re: What single folks are thinking...

  • I actually envy my single friends. I miss the days when I could do whatever I wanted whenever I wanted. 
  • Maybe its being newly married and all but I love having someone to come home to everynight. Something that will let me vent about my day and give loving advice. I do miss a bit of my independence but overall I love marriage better

  • When I was single all I thought about was:  "When is he going to propose?"
    Since I've been married it's:  "When is he going to take out the trash?"
  • I don't envy about the married couples. I know it's not easy for 2 grown ups live together. I mean, it's not roommate thing. They really LIVE together - planning, executing, negotiating, caring, etc. All the couples brag about how great their married lives are and urge singles to get married too. However, I know that they are dragging into traps because they envy singles. :)
  • I think my single friends envy that I have someone to come home to every night, who can support me though good and bad times. They have all sort of mentioned that they would love that, and that I am lucky to have that partner in my life. 

    What I envy about the single girls is the excitement of brand new relationships. The first date, the first kiss, the electricity when you hear from the guy. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of times I still get butterflies around my husband, but when we first met it was like the whole world around us disappeared. :) That is such a fun part of a relationship!

  • I've had one friend tell me to my face that she envied my relationship and thus we could not be friends. I am still wondering what I had that her relationship lacked. I still feel sorry for her. I never understood envying someone elses relationship.. when I was single I was always happy that my friends were taken care of and loved.
