Socrates on Love: Marriage? Maybe. Single life? Maybe too!

As to marriage or celibacy, let a man take which course he will, he will be sure to repent.Socrates


Remember the famous thinker Socrates? He once said something surprising about love: “Marry or stay single, either way you might regret it.”

People have debated this quote for ages. Some think Socrates meant there’s no perfect choice, that life’s always a bit tough. Others think he meant to say “think carefully” before making big choices like marriage. After all, both being married and staying single have their own good and bad sides.

One thing is very clear as per Socrates: Marriage is a big decision, think through it. The important things is to feel what feels right to you and then choose to get married or enjoy being single, either way.
