    This is making me laugh/depressed lol.
    I'm fairly new to being single but am appreciating some things such as:
    -not having to be a mother to a 40 year old man, pay your own damn bills, wash your own clothes etc etc
    -not having someone looking over my shoulder and questioning where I'm going
    -cooking exactly what I want for dinner
    -not having to wear a ton of clothes to prevent getting attacked in bed

    Choice of music is a great one. My last ex made fun of some of my musical choices so I stopped listening to certain bands around him. And I don't have to listen to his annoying punk music. lol

    Some of us women are able to shower, fix makeup and hair, get dressed, and be out the door in under 30 minutes! Its a talent.

    1.) Crappy movie marathons. :)
    2.) I can put veggies in my dishes again
    3.) I don't have to pick anyone up every time because they're too broke due to poor decisions to buy a car of their own.
    4.) I have a better sleep pattern and love to wake up early without having to creep around the apartment until noon.
    5.) No more feeding of the ego as he fishes for compliments, so I'm only responsible for my own happiness!
    6.) Long bubble baths without interruption.
    7.) I get to work on my flirting skills now!

    I don't have to wait until my next paycheck to pay the bills that were due in this paycheck because I never know how much of MY salary is going to be left be her (who refuses to have a job) for me to pay bills.

    Heck, just being able to handle my money how I want to.

    Being able to satisfy oneself in bed without having a second person think that is an invitation/requirement to include them. Was that nicely phrased? LOL

    You can talk to yourself without anyone thinking you're crazy.

    Not having someone spoil Walking Dead or Game of Thrones while watching it. This is a BIG ONE for me!

    Not having a boyfriend, knowing he is physically attracted to other women, this is actually the reason why I've chosen to stay single for life

    Nobody wanting me to go massively into debt on houses and minivans and childcare.

    Its been a recurring theme in my relationships:. They always seem to want to go SPEND SPEND SPEND, and get stuck under mortgage payments and reproduction.
