What does the single life look like and does it have anything in common with what the media show? This question has caused much discussion in the press. This article explores the “pictures” of single men and women living in big cities which is presented in the two popular polish magazines “Polityka” and “Wprost”. The author asks also people who are single about their lifestyle and reasons for flying “solo”. Singles talk about their expectations towards their potential partners and their idea of a great love. They share their thoughts on relationships. They also talk about the importance of having a professional career in their life, their passions, and about the advantages and disadvantages of being single.

We also found that more negative past experiences with relationships were associated with an increased probability to fall in the latter group than in other groups of voluntary singlehood or being mated.
