There are many but I have to say I enjoy having the whole bed to myself.

    Basically you're on your own - you call the shots you have absolute independence (which is a big plus)
  • I dont have to shave if I don't want to. (I mean, no one's ever forced me to either but at least I know I can grow all the hairs without feeling gross when someone touches my legs)
    I don't have to worry about taking long term contraception (non of them are suitable for me)

    I love that if I feel like toast and tea for dinner I can have it without considering what someone else would like.

    so much this

    feeding people is what I hate the most about being a wife/mother

    I get to flirt with whomever I want. Playing the field is fun. I get the perks of having bfs but with no baggage, exceptions... it’s spontaneous, fun. I don’t have to reply back to texts if I don’t want- and he can’t say anything about it. He goes back to his home, I have my own space. Playing house isn’t appealing to me quit yet. There’s too many fish in the sea... when I’m in my early-ish 30s I’ll think about that stuff

    totally. sometimes I just want some fruit for dinner. even if I'm not "asked" to cook for someone, I will consider them and ultimately make a meal that would accommodate them.

    I enjoy cooking for others. It's the "deciding what to make" part that sucks azz.

    Attempting to flirt while hiding my inner crazy girl is always exciting.

    No one saying at 6 PM that they’re not hungry for dinner and we can skip it, then ordering pizza at 10 PM and pushing for me to have a whole pizza too or they will feel bad. Not being asked where I’m going Every Damn Time I get up from the sofa. No more wondering why the phone gets so much more attention than I do.

    I enjoy being able to go where I want and do what I want without being interrogated. Being able to spend my money how I choose. Wearing what I want. Talking to who I want.

    I cant see any downsides 🤷‍♀️

    This!! 👏🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

    Being able spend time with my family and friends again without having to be made to feel guilty about it! No constant check ins. No arguments! No dealing with unnecessary lies! Being single is great.... until it's not.... lol I suppose but for now... I'm very much happy and at peace
