Sometimes I get into funks where I get a little down that I'm single. So I'm making a list to keep in my computer of the positives of being single! What are yours? I'm looking to add some to my list. I realize this might be a little silly but it makes me feel better!!
Some good ones I've read so far:
- You can do whatever you want, whenever you want. No questions asked. No guilt about doing it either. You don’t have to make excuses. You don’t have to call someone to check in on her or ask permission to go somewhere.
- You can have the TV remote all to yourself.
- You get the whole bed to yourself.

You can hook up with the hotties you meet in bars. [:
Also, your first on the list is my BIGGEST reason I choose to stay single.
I LOVE being single. SO much happier!!!0 -
Love being single! I am heading overseas next year for an unknown amount of time, and I am purposely staying single so I have nothing or no reason to hold me back. This is something I've always wanted to do for me, and staying single is the way to achieve this Do what you want, when you want! 0

I am very recently single, and the thing I have enjoyed most is being able to seriously clean my apartment, and actually have it STAY clean! No bf coming around and messing up things from the way that I like them.
I also enjoy having the whole bed to myself, as well!0 -
You can learn to be confident and unique- just the way you are. No worrying about what he's gonna think of this or that part of you, or if he'll like a certain quirk. You are free to be who you are!0

--You can make whatever food you want, and not have to double-check with anyone if that's okay.
--You don't have to wish the other person would just quit talking for a few minutes.

--You get to do what you want with no compromises.
Thanks for this thread!! Sometimes I feel like the only single-girl around...0 -

Yes! And that!!0 -
You can buy as many shoes as you want!
Jealous of those of you who have the bed to yourself -- I share mine with the dog! :blushing:0 -
I Am single and have been for a while now. It was hard for me at first and sometimes I still get a little lonely, but then I tell myself I am glad that I do not need to be with someone to make myself happy. When I do date people this makes me feel more confident about who I want to be with and who I don't, cause I know I am not going to just be with someone that is not right for me so I am not lonely.0

let them call you what they want....i stopped caring. I love myself...and it's only the married friends that shake their heads at me, they're all jealous cuz i have WAY more fun 0 -
I love that you all responded! Here are some more I thought of
- you don't have to double check your plans with anyone...you don't have to say "hmm, i'll talk to my boyfriend/girlfriend about it."
- you can live life without someone holding you back
- you don't lose your friends
- you can eat whatever you want
- you don't waste money on dates, buying him a gift for valentine's day, Christmas, his birthday, etc.
- you control the remote and dvr!
- and since we're on MFP...you get to exercise all you want without someone wondering where you are! and you get to admire all the hot guys at the gym0 -
AND...i can talk to whomever i want without a crazy bf getting jealous and then me having to stroke his balls to make him feel better.
ya, no more jealous bf's0 -

You're right about that!
My in-a-relationship friends talk about how bad it is.
But all my single friends are jealous! Haha.
Also, ditto on the jealousness.
I actually had one of my hookups turn super-clingy.
Had to kick him to the curb, FAST.0 -

Haha.
It's funny because some of my friends say "you have no feelings!!"
But I think it's so much easier to just not get attached!0 -
I. Love. This. Thread.
I was just b****ing a few days ago about being single...I needed to read this!
:drinker:0 -
Being single rules! My faves are:
Playing the field. Being able to have a great night with your girl friends with no responsibilities. Not feeling like you have to set a standard. Not having to shave my legs/lady bits. Having loads of male friends with no questions asked about it.0 -
The toilet seat is always down.
You can make all the noise you want when you have to get up early.
You don't have to share the covers!
You can watch all the chick flicks you want!0 -
You don't have to share your moonshine.
........... that was probably too specific. :indifferent:0 -
SHARING MY BED Not sharing my food or drink Can change my hair color all I want too NOT HAVING TO RECLEAN MY HOUSE AFTER I JUST CLEANED IT 5 MINS AGO wearing my not so sexy hello kitty pj's NOT HAVING DRAMA IN MY LIFE EVERY 2 MINS
I hate to argue.....ITS A DEALBREAKER0 -
All the things I love about being single are all the things I miss about not being with someone!0
-
ladies ladie ladies...why so sad some of you?. Being single is bloody awesome!
i was with my partner for 16 years until 3 years ago. ive dated for a few months here and there and you naturally find yourself biting your tongue or slightly acting different around that new date. i decided to be true to myself each time and ditch them cos i am faaaar happier on my own. if someone perfect happens to land on your lap? so be it. but learn who you are if you havent already and enjou your own company, take up some new hobbies, get a new friend family. who knows it may lead to something more than friendship anyhow, but for now i cant see a man or woman in my life, do what i want, when i want. selfishness to the max.0 -
I used share my bed with the Dogs when I was single I have had a partner for over two years now and my eldest dog still ignores him because they all sleep downstairs now. 0
-
two years of ignoring from a dog. hahah brilliant.0

Oh my gosh, I DEFINITELY needed this tonight. Thanks so much for posting this!! Some of my personal single faves are:
-Not feeling guilty about checking out hot celebs/attractive guys at bars.
-Being able to order whatever I want on my pizza without judgment (ESPECIALLY onions).
-Freedom to do what I want, when I want.
-Not feeling guilty for girls nights. (I usually don't, but there's nothing worse than a whiny "I miss you" text raining on your fun...)0 -
1. You don't have to answer to ANYONE!
2. You can do whatever you please!
3. You can make your own choices!
4. you don't have to get permission for ANYTHING!
And the best one of ALL......................................................You get to work on YOURSELF with NO INTERRUPTIONS! And make yourself better all around!
I still get lonley though...lol0 -
Right after my last b/f and I broke up, I remember going to a wine bar and when I walked in 3 guys at the same time broke their necks looking at me. I realized at the time that felt foreign to me. Like I forgot I'm actually attractive. I had thrown all the enjoyment of being "hot" into one guy's basket and stopped noticing when other guys were looking. My ex was insecure (but masked it with feigned confidence) so in order to make him stop interrogating me (in his passive, "tee-hee you're a fox who talked to you when you went out, I know there must have been like 10 guys" way) about other guys, I stopped being aware of the other guys, which made me feel less attractive. I don't miss that *kitten*. I don't miss having a boyfriend at all. No matter how alone I am, I'm not lonely.0
