First of all, let’s take freedom into consideration! Married life is intrinsically shrouded with rules, and if either one of the married couple contravenes the rule aftereffects are so lethal and menacing. A married person is like a prisoner who constantly feels he/she is being watched. On the contrary, bachelors have no boundary and no feeling of insecurity, and no one reprimands them whether they sleep in streets or erstwhile unless they are not engaged in crime related issues.
Whilst coming to religion, most bachelors’ conducts and lifestyles are in unison with religious values and beliefs. Unlike married couples, they hardly have or no attachment toward the opposite sex; so when they have less attachment, their ego-self gets watered down and find more time in practicing spirituality. Some bachelors are conscientiously doing God’s work by taking a vow of celibacy and asceticism that is not found in married couples.
Furthermore, when you don’t stick to one, I mean when you are not indulged in sexual love, you can show unconventional love to others without any bias. Who knows a bachelor might become one like the Buddha of Infinite Compassion? Anything could happen! But when you are in relation or stick to one, the intensity of unconventional love goes down because you feel more close to your partner, fearing if you might lose him/her; then, you might appear very much narcissistic or self-centered to bachelors’ eyes.
Bachelors can perform commendably in the social welfare domain. When someone gets married, his/her concern for his partner becomes primary and he/she would do anything to his/her partner, remaining callous to scourges and afflictions of society; helping unfortunate and downtrodden ones become their secondary concern at the least. Conversely, bachelors are more altruistic and are likely to engage in charity organizations and NGOs. So be single, my dear friends! lol
