1. Happy singles: These are single people who “fully accept their lifestyle。” They “do not feel the need to be in a relationship。” In fact, they say that they are happy not to be in a serious romantic relationship. They are probably the people I would call single at heart。

1. 樂意單身。這些單身人士完全滿足他們的生活方式，他們沒有感覺到有需要談戀愛。事實上，他們是說他們對于沒有一場認(rèn)真的戀愛關(guān)系而感到愉快。他們可能就是我們稱之為有一顆單身心的人。

2. Accustomed singles: They are similar in many ways to the happy singles, but instead of saying that they are happy with their single lives, they say, “I’m used to being single。” They don’t mean that in any resigned or negative sense. As Czernecka explains, “They have been alone for a while and treat it as their natural state – they do not want to destroy the harmony of their life, or give up their rituals and everyday pleasures for a partner. All emotional needs, the sense of being accepted and of help in everyday life are provided by their family and friends, which is why they say that they ‘do not need anyone else.’”

2. 習(xí)慣單身。他們在很多方面與樂意單身的人相似。但不是說他們樂意單身，是說他們習(xí)慣單身。他們并不意味著是順從或是消極的觀念。就澤內(nèi)卡的解釋來說，他們暫時是孤獨(dú)的并把孤獨(dú)作為自然狀態(tài)，他們不想要為了另一半摧毀他們這種和諧的生活或是放棄他們的老規(guī)矩和樂趣。所有情感上的需要，日常生活中的接受與幫助是由他們的家庭和朋友提供的，這就是為什么他們說不需要其他人。

3. Hurt singles: They have had bad experiences with romantic relationships in the past and do not want to be hurt again. (The Carly Simon lyrics, “haven’t got time for the pain,” sound relevant here。)

3. 受過傷的單身漢。他們在過去談戀愛的時候有不好的經(jīng)歷并且不想要再受一次傷。(卡莉西蒙：“沒有痛苦的時候。”在這聽起來是相關(guān)的。)

4. All-or-nothing singles: They only want to be with a romantic partner if they can find someone great. They are not going to be in a romantic relationship just to be in a romantic relationship。

4. 孤注一擲的單身漢。如果他們找到合適的人的時候，他們只想要一個愛人。他們不會想要談戀愛就去談戀愛。
