As a result, many people avoid the very【B3】______ that are the source of true happiness.
Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. He might tell you that he is afraid of【B4】______, for it is in fact quite painful. The single life is【B5】______ fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most【B6】______ features.
