Is Life Better Staying Single or Getting Married? medindia.net
Freedom for Singles
There have been many cases where married people had to give up personal interests in order to accommodate other responsibilities. But for singles, personal hobbies and interests do not take a back seat. There is enough time to hone and pursue new skills and passions, thus constantly reinventing oneself into a new person who can follow dreams without interruption.
Singles also enjoy the freedom to take decisions without much hassle. They do not need consensus from all corners of the house before embarking on any major assignment or work.
Better social network
In the age of technology, there are so many things to handle that time constraint is a big hurdle. Staying connected with all is one big challenge in itself. With so much agenda on the platter, social networking gets hindered at times for married people. But singles are independent to travel anytime, anywhere to improve upon their connectivity. Research has proved that marriage leads to less contact with parents and friends compared to remaining single.
Problems of Staying Single
Singles are Lonely, Lack Social Security and Support
Staying single can bring in loneliness and can push people towards depression. It may not be possible for singles to find suitable company according to their timing and wish. And at these moments when they find no one trustworthy to spend time with them, they can very easily slip into the phase of depression.
Singles’ Economic Problem
When married, if one partner is not able to work or earn enough money, the other partner can pitch in. But for singles, earning your bread and butter even when the body or mind is exhausted can be a big challenge. Earning money single-handedly can put a lot of pressure at times, pushing the person towards serious addictions, depression and other health problems.

3 Steps to End Any Argument
huffingtonpost Shannon Kolakowski
Arguments are a normal part of life -- it's certainly not expected that you never disagree with the people that you care about. But what can help is finding a way to disagree that doesn't drive a wedge between the two of you. Wouldn't it be a relief if there were a way to end an argument more effectively, bringing the two of your towards a common ground?
1. Ask. This step involves taking a step back from the argument and asking the other person to let you summarize their position to make sure you understand it correctly. You might say, "Let me make sure I understand where you're coming from," or "I want to make sure I'm hearing your point of view correctly." Then, paraphrase what you believe is the issue based on their point of view. This may seem counter-intuitive at first, because typically in an argument you are trying to make a case for your side. But that's exactly why it's so effective. When people argue, they are desperately trying to get their perspective heard. So when you stop explaining your side -- and start listening to their side -- it makes the conversation much more manageable. By ending the power struggle to be heard, it allows the other person to feel less defensive.
2. Validate. After you correctly identify the person's perspective about the problem, the next step is to validate how they feel about the problem. Validating doesn't mean you have to agree with the other person's perspective, but it does show that you know where they're coming from. You might say, "I can see how you'd feel that way," or "It makes complete sense that you'd feel that way given the situation." To do this, focus on the parts of the other person's argument that are legitimate and that you can relate to. Showing that you understand where he or she is coming from allows the other person to let their guard down, and makes them more likely to be willing to look at things from your perspective.
3. Join. The last step is essential. This is where you join with the other person, showing the other person that you both ultimately want the same thing: to resolve the conflict and maintain the relationship. You might say something like, "We're on the same side here, not against each other. I want to work this out together." By brining up the fact that your relationship is more important than the argument, it puts things in perspective. Yes, the issue at hand is important to you both, but your relationship together is ultimately what really matters. Joining with the other person also defuses the angry emotions or coldness that might be building, because it reminds you both that you do care for each other.
