I love being single for many reasons. It's made me realize my self-worth and has encouraged me to love myself. But let's face it, being single comes with some pretty funny perks too. Here are just 5 of the many reasons it's great to be single, and why we should appreciate the time that we are!
5 things I love about being single
1.Starfishing in Bed:
One of the greatest joys of being single is the absolute freedom to starfish in bed. You know, spreading out your limbs like you're making a snow angel, but on a mattress. No more fighting for that elusive extra inch of mattress space or waking up with your partner's elbow in your ear. Every night is a solo performance of Cirque du Soleil, where you can stretch, roll, and even do the worm if the mood strikes.
2. Not Having to Think About What Someone Else Wants for Dinner:
Meal planning as a single person? A breeze. No more endless debates about what to eat or dealing with fussy eaters. I once dated a guy who only ate beige food. Turkey Twizzlers and chips every night? Pass. And let’s not even talk about the horror of garlic haters. Imagine a world where you have to worry about eating too much garlic—nightmare fuel, right? In my kitchen, garlic is the most cherished ingredient. If a recipe calls for one clove, you better believe I’m throwing in four. Vampires don’t stand a chance, and my taste buds are living their best life.
3. Alone Time:
I love being sociable, I really do. But sometimes the thought of having to talk to someone makes me want to crawl under a rock. I’m an extroverted introvert—social butterfly one minute, hermit crab the next. Being single means guilt-free alone time. No small talk, no deep conversations, just blissful silence and the chance to recharge in my own space. It’s like having a personal bubble that no one can burst, perfect for those days when “people-ing” just feels like too much effort.
4. Watching What You Want, When You Want:
The amount of times I've heard about the imminent beginning of World War III over the scandal of someone watching a TV show without their partner is mind-boggling. Being single means you can binge-watch whatever you want, whenever you want, without the fear of committing a relationship felony.
5. Sports bras and hairy legs!
One of the underrated joys of single life is the absolute freedom in personal grooming choices. Sports bras become your go-to attire because comfort trumps all, and let's be real, they're practically loungewear. And as for shaving your legs? Pfft. Who has time for that? Who's going to know that your legs are more prickly than a cactus in the Sahara Desert? Not even you, since they won't be meeting each other when you're starfishing every night!
