Single isn't a bad thing



Sometimes we complain about being single and not having a "lover" in our lives. But, being in a relationship isn't all what it's cracked up to be. Most people go through life going from one relationship to the next and never stop to enjoy life as an individual. There are statistics that prove the fact where most of the time you'll find Mr. Wrong rather than Mr. Right... so why bother going through those awful break ups? We tend to get into relationships because we don't want to be "alone"...but in all reality being alone isn't bad at all. It shows that you're a strong and independent person that doesn't need another person to be your happiness. You learn to fight your own battles instead of depending on others. 
I believe that young people are in too much of a hurry to find the "love of their life" that they're going to be with forever. Everyone needs to take a step back and slow down. If it's meant to be then it will be. Fate brings us to the people we're supposed to be with, therefore, rushing into things isn't a good idea. Sometimes you think that you've found your night in shining armor but in all reality they're only a night in shining tinfoil.


A little me time, is the best time. You get to kick back and put your full attention towards yourself. Take a nice relaxing trip to the spa, or sit back with a pizza and some Netflix. It's nice to be able to concentrate on yourself and not your partner too. Plus you'll never have to feel guilty for going off and doing something that you truly enjoy doing. Before jumping into a relationship take some time to get to know yourself. 
Being in a relationship definitely doesn't always mean happiness. It can cause you a lot of pain and unwanted stress. That's why I believe that having some me time is very important. 
Think of all the things you can do while being single. Don't feel like shaving your legs or face? Fine, no need to. Don't want to do your hair or dress nicely? No problem. Want to eat junk food? Go for it. Don't feel like wearing sexy underwear or clean boxers? Fine. Life can be much more simple when you're only worried about yourself.

  2. This is really good Jen! I can't begin to imagine how many people feel like this. Single isn't always a bad thing, it allows someone to sit back and really think what they want in life.

    1. Thank you! There's a lot of people who think that they need someone in their life in order to be happy and content with themselves, but that's not the case at all. That's what society has put into our heads.
