So you think its great to be loved up! Well the grass is always greener
on the other side.Your coupled up friends might envy your freedom and
the fun you have sans a be(I)tter half. Truth is being in a relationship
does not equal hand holding and flowers.So instead of moaning about
your single status learn to love
this time and do things that you want to do and be the person that you
want to be before you settle into a pattern of couplehood that
will change your life forever.
“Its better to be alone for the right reasons than to be with someone for the wrong reasons’
Freedom
Now repeat after me ‘today is the first day for the rest of my life. After a breakup life can seem a bit, well lonely.But the good news
is that now you have the independence to do what you want without
someone else affecting your decisions.Everything that will take place
now is entirely dependent on you. So if you want to move your life in
another direction now is the time because after being in a relationship
it is difficult to change.
The him/her demands
Missing a Justin Timberlake concert because his stupid band is playing
in a mini mall or Blowing of a Basket ball game to attend her neices birthday party. Well now that is no longer an issue.You can have all the fun you want now cause there is no one stopping you.
The School Social Scene
Hanging by his locker waiting for him to acknowledge your existence as
his girlfriend.Sick of waiting for him to say those 3 words ,8
letters.Well single people have it better. There is no stress socially
especially that stress you get when your in a beginning of a
relationship and you don’t know what to say when people ask you if you
are going out or not.
Living your life the way you want
Want to become a vegetarian? Well now now that beef gobbling boyfriend
of yours wont be there to stop you! If you want to change something
about yourself now is the time.So if you had been thinking of joining a
band or even experimenting with a new hair color
you have the liberty to do it all because in your single days you don’t
have to worry about a better half not agreeing with a change in your
lifestyle choice.
Learning new activities
Often with work/education/chores/extracurricular activities, our
lifestyle don’t give us the luxury of spare time.We are burdened with
the pressure to perform well in
each task, throw in a relationship in the mix and you rarely have time
to try new activities. So when on your not romantically involved with
anyone, immerse yourself in a new activity that you always wanted to do
but never had the time for it or if your boyfriend/girlfriend was not up
for it.
The anxiety of hallmark holidays
It’s valentines day and your worried what to get him and after spending
almost three hours at the mall getting a baseball signed by
his favorite sportsperson you discover that he has gotten you …nothing!
While being single on valentines day you and your single friends can scope out all the cute boys you want and buy each other as many chocolates and candies as possible!
Dealing with jerks/ bitches anymore
Anyone who thinks highly of them self will not settle for an idiot because he is available.So once your out of the relationship allow yourself time to heal. This is an opportunity to reflect on your self esteem and ask yourself .Do I deserve
to be treated this way? Is it OK for anyone to hurt me and abuse me? If
the answers to these questions is No, then move on and discover a much
stronger you.
Looking at another girl without feeling guilty
Every guy likes to look at pretty chicks, and hey can you blame them
!Admit it ladies we girls are pretty creatures! Single guys have the
liberty of looking at a gorgeous female without being (falsely) accused
of being a cheat, flirt or Mr.wandering eyes! So enjoy window shopping
while your single cause after your bachelor status ends all the shops are closed for good.
Knowing who your friends really are
This is one of the hardest things you will discover after your single.
Many people are friends with you because your going out with a popular
guy/girl and they just want to be a part of the ride.After a
relationship ends mutual friends of both the parties take sides. So it
is in times like these you will know which friend is on your side.
No monster inlaws
Monster in-laws are not necessarily mothers/fathers/siblings or other
family members,it’s also the annoying entourage of friends that come as
package in a relationship .So now you don’t have to deal with friends of
his that backbite and bitch about you or her girlfriends who always
seem to be dissing you in front of her. Now you only deal with your
friends and your life and your problems. One word of advice its good to
be selfish sometimes!This is your time live it and love it!
