In the midst of all the fun, excitement and new adventures that come with being single, it can be easy to forget just how much you enjoy your independence or why you decided to remain single in the first place. But whether you’re looking to find love again or trying to enjoy being single on its own merits, there are some great reasons why you’re still single that might actually make you smile instead of frowning every time you think about them. If you’re still single but want to keep things that way, here are 10 reasons why being single might not be so bad after all.
1) You have more time to focus on your career
- You have more time to focus on your career: If you are single, you may have the luxury of focusing on your career without having to worry about balancing it with dating and finding a relationship.
- You will be able to travel more: Traveling can be expensive and if you are single, you might not need someone else’s opinion when booking flights or hotels.
2) You have more time to focus on your hobbies
- You have more time to focus on your hobbies.
- You get to pick what you want to do without having to compromise and make anyone else happy.
- You can be by yourself without feeling guilty or like you’re neglecting someone else’s needs, wants, or expectations of you.
- You are less likely to get into a bad relationship because you’re not looking for anything serious right now (or at all).
3) You have more time to spend with your friends
Sure, it’s nice to have somebody to talk about everything with and to go on adventures with, but you know what? Sometimes it’s just better to spend time with your friends. When you’re single, you have a lot of free time that could be spent chilling with the people who are there for you no matter what. You can still do things like go out or stay in together and enjoy each other’s company.
4) You don’t have to compromise on your plans
You don’t have to compromise on your plans just because you’re single. You can do anything you want! Whether it’s going out with friends or staying in and reading a book, there are no limits to what you can do while being single.
5) You don’t have to deal with anyone’s drama
You can’t argue with the fact that being single has its perks. From getting to do what you want when you want, to never having to deal with anyone’s drama, there are a lot of reasons why being single might not be so bad after all.
6) You can sleep in peace
You sleep in peace. That’s right, you don’t have to worry about waking up the one you love or being woken up by them in the middle of the night when they go to the bathroom. You can sleep all night and all day if you want! Plus, no one is going to snore next to you or hog your space on a daily basis. It’s just like living alone but with someone special by your side!
7) You can eat whatever you want
- You can eat whatever you want, whenever you want!
- You can spend your money on whatever you want!
- You’re not obligated to do anything with someone else.
- If you’re feeling down, there’s no one to pick you up and make it worse, but if someone else is feeling down, there’s no one to pick them up and make it better either.
8) You can watch whatever you want
You may be single and not be ready to get into another relationship, or you may want to be single for a while. You may not have the time and energy to pursue a new relationship, or you could just not be in the mood for love right now. Whatever your reasons for being single might be, there are some great benefits that come with it as well.
9) You can go wherever you want
- You’re too busy with work and life to be in a relationship right now
- You’re simply not ready for a commitment
- You’ve recently been through a really difficult breakup that you need to get over first
- Your career is just taking off and you don’t want any distractions from love in your life
- Dating can be exhausting and by being single, you have the chance to focus on yourself
10) You don’t have to answer to anyone
- You’re not accountable to anyone but yourself.
- You can do whatever you want whenever you want.
- No one is going to judge you for the things that you like, say or do (as long as they’re within the law). 4. There’s no one who is going to tell you what to do, when to do it and how to do it better than themself.
