It seems like most of you like the freedom aspect of being single most, but that autonomy is often a double-edged sword. Though having the freedom to do whatever you want, whenever you want is liberating, a common gripe I hear about being single is loneliness — having no one to rely on, no one to spend Sunday nights with, and not having that special someone to call just because. The grass is always greener, right?

Dear Sugar,
I'm so incredibly jealous of one of my boyfriend's female friends, and I want to know how I can stop feeling this way. I'm not worried my boyfriend would ever do anything inappropriate, I know he only has eyes for me, I just get really angry and hurt inside when I know they're hanging out. Due to the way my life is right now, I'm lucky if I get to spend an afternoon with my boyfriend once every two weeks!

Dear Sugar,
I suffered from severe depression in high school and was given medication. While on the antidepressants, I had a suicide attempt. After suffering severe withdrawals from the medication, I decided I did not want to go the medicinal route ever again.
