ANTI-SOCIAL?

I heard a phase today that I had never, DID I SAY NEVER, associated to being single. The phrase was anti-social described as someone happy being single that is getting over a bad break up. Yeah that is not what I consider anti-social. The correct definition of anti- social ASPD) is defined by the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual as "...a pervasive pattern of disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others that begins in childhood or early adolescence and continues into adulthood."[1] Deceit and manipulation are considered essential features of the disorder.

I do not know of anyone that would say just because a person is single (single is not a disease we have been over this) they are manipulative,deceitful,or anything else as defined here. People who are ANTI-SOCIAL are anti social married, single, gay, straight, or even if they are purple. It has nothing to do with being single. We need to stop as a society punishing people that do not have partners and let people be happy. We need to stop making everyone feel like they are not important if they are single. Everyone needs to stop thinking single equals mental problems, HELLO I'm just picky! and I would guess so are alot of other people. Remember to love the people close to you, tell them often, and to stop with the "nice" name calling just because a person is single.

Oh by the way, I heard someone say this about themselves which is very depressing for 2 reasons. First reason is that people need to read more and KNOW what they are talking about and the second is that someone would equate anti-social with HAPPY.
