In my opinion, this song is about someone that doesn't know how good he or she has it, and they know that settling down really scares them. Hell, I have been there myself. I was in a romance with a really great girl, and when she and I started getting more serious...I really got scared, and I basically jumped ship, and broke up with her...but she and I remained friends, and now we are dating again, and its great now.
This is not commentary on the song or on you; rather something you said. What the heck does "settling down really scares them" mean? Has anyone ever been married 'cause it doesn't appear that way on this site. Except for foresaking others, "settling down" doesn't mean people have to change. I was married a decade and we allowed each other the space we each needed. We had some mutual friends, but we each had our own friends.

People shouldn't (and often don't) lose their identitywhen they marry (ie settle down). The other person merely complements them...makes life more exciting at times, gives them a lifelong companion through the good and bad times, supports them emotionally and pushes them to better themselves, etc. I'm sorry, but the sentiment on this site regarding "setting down" is often so negative...and without reason. It takes two people to keep a relationship exciting, and both must be dedicated to keeping it that way. The only thing I see different about being single is being ok to screw around. And for some of us, that gets awfully old, boring, stale, and way too easy to be really exciting. I'm also old school, 'cause (to me) when women become dogs like men with regard to sex, they behave disgustinly, and I'd be worried about the diseases I would bring home. I can't imagine having so little respect for my body (as a woman) that I would want just anyone to touch it. Ick.
