<\/a>BEING SINGLE<\/h2>\nThere are many advantages to being single. You may not be able to appreciate singlehood now, but there are actually reasons to rejoice. Take a look at the following:<\/p>\n
1. No one to demand time from you.<\/strong><\/p>\nOne of the things you can enjoy as a single is your freedom in handling your time. For instance, you can go home anytime you want to (unless you live with your parents and they have set a curfew). Also, you do not have to make time for habitual dates.<\/p>\n
2. You can freely do the things you want.<\/strong><\/p>\nHaving no boyfriend\/girlfriend gives you the liberty to be yourself more. You can travel alone, wear what you want, and have an overnight with friends, without worrying it would lead you to a fight.<\/p>\n
3. Making a decision for yourself will be less complicated.<\/strong><\/p>\nIf you are in a relationship, then you cannot make major decisions without consulting your partner first. On the other hand, being single allows you to take risks without being accountable to someone. You can work abroad or change career without having to consider someone else\u2019s choice.<\/p>\n
4. You can easily go out with your friends or see anyone you like.<\/strong><\/p>\nBeing single lets you spend time with your friends\u2014both guys and girls\u2014without any limitation. Some boyfriends\/girlfriends forbid their partners from hanging out with friends from the opposite sex because of jealousy.<\/p>\n
5. Focusing on your studies or work will be easier.<\/strong><\/p>\nWhether you are studying or working, you can have better concentration if you are single. No late night calls, demands for dates, and stressful lovers\u2019 quarrels.<\/p>\n
6. It saves you from headaches and heartaches.<\/strong><\/p>\nYes, it is beautiful to be in love, but at the same time, it makes you vulnerable to pain. Conflicts, misunderstandings, and, sometimes, heartbreaks are an inevitable part of your journey as a couple.<\/p>\n
7. You have more time to reach for your dreams.<\/strong><\/p>\nHaving no commitment to someone gives you the freedom to focus on your life goals. There is no one to oppose your plans, pressure you for time, and disturb you when you need to concentrate on achieving those. For instance, you can migrate to anywhere you like for your career without needing the approval of a boyfriend\/girlfriend.<\/p>\n
8. Saving up becomes more attainable.<\/strong><\/p>\nWithout a partner, you can save much from dates, presents, and the expenses which are usually doubled if you have one. Well, it is more practical to have saved up for your future first before your future mate arrives.<\/p>\n
9. You can spend more time with your family and friends.<\/strong><\/p>\nWho says being single means you have no love life? Take this time as an opportunity to lavish your affection on your parents, siblings, and everyone else you consider family. You should also enjoy hanging out with your best pals because someday all of you will be busy with your own partners\u2014and even families.<\/p>\n
10. You have more time to explore and discover yourself.<\/strong><\/p>\nThe most beautiful part of being single is the opportunity of self-discovery.
