Better single?

When picking a guy to be a potential boyfriend, it's easy to simply compare him to the other guys you've met. "Is he better than the rest?" "Is he the best I can find?"

Here's another question to ask: "Would I be better off single?"

If the answer is no, great. If the answer is yes--there is such a thing as being happy and better off single.

From 1 Corinthians 7, NIV:

⁸Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. ⁹But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
