Are women more comfortable being single and independent or married and interdependent?
This question is not to offend anyone, it's just a question of curiosity. Do women prefer to be single and doing their own thing while being a positive example to other singles or , a married career woman (and mom) being that same positive example showing the ability to be mom, wife, career woman and still be submissive to hubby while holding fast to a degree of independence?

- What about being married and being independent at the same time? I certainly prefer that. There's no rule that says just because a woman is already married, she can't be independent anymore.
- first of all, you can not paint all women into a corner and assume they all want the same thing. all women want something slightly different. for me, i am married and independent. and that's great. i don't want kids, but i do want to be with my husband, because we make each other happy. but that's us.
- There is no real answer to your question. All women are different . Some prefer the single life . Others prefer the married life.
- A lot depends on the woman herself and her level of comfort and need
- single and independent when menopausal
- We can do it all and be independent. Who is submissive to their hubby? Not at my house. I could be comfortable either way but I am glad that I am married.
- it depends on the woman and her relationships...I loved being single, and I love being a wife and a mother.....question to complex to answer with a yes or no
- Cheetah7 is right the best relationship I have been in we both were very independent. It was the best.
- Geez, given some of the responses, call a spade a spade. I know we're all unique, just like everybody else. Still generalisations do apply and have a general element of truth. My experience is that generally, women are more comfortable being in a relationship and interdependant. I know of a number of single women desperate for a 'relationship', and dramatically fewer 'desperate' married women.
- I have been single and independent and it is wonderful; came and went as I plesed, I traveled on days off to other dtates; saw broadway shows, I did me; now that I am maried when we made the agreement to get married I told my husband what I was use to doing prior to him being a part of it. I told him that I still wanted travel and do he things I did before with him. I still travel and sometimes he comes along with me. We are both succesful I am a RN work 3 days a week and he is a realtor. He knows that I love him; we both bring home money; we hae 2 kids and want another; its basically a mutall agreement; this should have been something you discussed prior to marriage. It can work its just takes communications. Sometimes he doesnt want me to gol and I stay; but sometimes I need me time and he understands. I am good to my husband he get a hot meal everyday, and clean clothes, a clean house, he better give me some freedom. Good Luck
