Girls who complain about their boyfriends...

Please take me out of your conversation. I was hanging out with a couple of colleagues at work. All of the women I was gather with are in loving relationships. I'm the only one who is not in a relationship. The three women were discussing about all the issues they have with their boyfriends families and mother in laws. Only one of them is married she is pretty young 23...and the other two are in their early 20's...I couldn't believe how much heartache and difficulty it is to be in a looooong lasting relationship. They went on for about 30 minutes. I couldn't quite add anything to the conversation, because I haven't been in a relationship in such a long time.
I could only recall that the person I dated for about 4 years was really neat. His mom was quite genuinely nice to me and since I didn't quite hanged around his family that often then I had nothing to complain about it. He probably had more things to complain about me then I had about him. It drive him insane when I wanted to write a poem with him. The only contribution he did on one of my poems was to make it gloomy and dark instead of cheerful and sweet. There was a point in the relationship were I wanted out, but afraid to be alone. I remember how he didn't take me seriously the first time I wanted to break up with him.
When I was listening to these girls complain so much about their current situation. I just realized how glad I was that I didn't end up marrying Mr. Gloomy. I probably would of been sitting there contributing to the bashing of men. (pretending to be happy) They continued on and on...and I couldn't even find an excuse to leave... they finally realized that I wasn't saying anything and they all turned to me to ask me if I had relationship issues.
I was like, "No, the only drama I have it is to write academically for grad-school that's the only thing I have going on at the present time." They all looked at me and they said, "Lucky." I bet they were feeling sad for me, because I don't have a boyfriend."
I've been fine with my lonely self for a very looooooong time.
