Top 10 Reasons I Enjoy Being Single

Lately, I've been a little down about being single and with this week bringing "Singles Awareness Day" (aka Valentine's Day), I was definitely feeling a bit lower than usual. Although it was a stressful week work-wise, events of these week made me realize that being single has its advantages.

1. I can sleep in an additional 10 minutes every day because I don't have to shave my legs.

2. When I come home, I can put on my PJs, pull my hair back, and not worry about looking "pretty" for someone else.

3. When I want to make last minute plans with the girls or other friends, I don't have to check in with someone else to make sure it is ok.

4. I can walk around my house naked whenever I want!!

5. I don't have to worry about cleaning up after someone else. I'm messy enough on my own.

6. My Girl Scout cookies, all other baked goods, and candy last twice as long. :)

7. I have more money to spend on ME instead of going out to dinner and buying gifts for someone else.

8. My closet and all the dresser drawers are mine, and I don't have to cram my clothes into an inadequate space just to make room for someone else's clothes.

9. I can leave my make-up, hair products, etc all over my bathroom countertop and not get nagged about doing it.

10. I can have random hot hook-ups whenever I want.


Don't get me wrong, I would love to find someone to be in a relationship with and share everything that life has to offer with him, but it doesn't seem like that is in the cards for me right now, much to my dismay. So while I am a living the single life, I might as well try to enjoy the benefits!! :)
