Most of us would agree that being in love is a beautiful, wonderful magical thing. It’s lovely. But when you take the plunge, make a commitment and decide to share your life with someone else, that comes with some adjustments. Though, most of our readers would never want to go back, they also had to admit that there are some things about their old single lives that they miss. See what they had to say.

Ebony: Not having to cook, house staying exactly how I left it, not having to go through pointless minor arguments, less laundry, having to wait for him to get home to watch DVRed shows like LHHATL Lol….but ultimately I wouldn’t change being with my man for nothing in the world. Being single has its perks but having someone who loves you unconditionally, someone you can count on… priceless!!!
