I don't see why its so hard to believe that single people are happy. In order for me to stay single, I don't actually have to DO anything! Its the law of inertia, really. I can sit back and do nothing at all and remain single. In order for me to get coupled up though, I have to actually do some stuff, or make something happen, and work at it. I don't want to be in a relationship, and its very easy for me to stay out of one by just not doing anything to be in one. So, why is it hard to believe that a person who isnt actively pursuing a relationship is happy not being in one?
