Most people think being in a relationship is all about happiness and being single is about being lonely.
Although being in a relationship has multiple advantages, being single also has its advantages.
The following are some of the advantages of being single;
Being single allows you do what you want any time you want. You do not have to worry what someone’s else reaction will be when you decide to do something which suits you at your own time and place without having to please anyone.
More time for you, less time on the phone. Communication is key in every relationship. Either when you are in the mood or not, you will be forced to communicate with your partner which amounts to a greater part of your day. Being single gives you all the time to invest in yourself.
More money in your pocket. Being in a relationship is expensive especially for the males, one is expected to buy flowers, buy chocolates, travel costs to see your partner among others. These are never necessary when you are not in a relationship.
Time to build a better you. Relationships take a lot of your time. One may not find time for oneself. With all the free time, you can start volunteering, take up your hobbies, and meet family members and friends. This is hard when one is in a relationship.
Free from stresses associated with relationship. Relationships are governed with factors such as insecurity of loss of partner or fear of being cheated on which don’t happen when one is single.
No need of guilt over what one posts in social media. A wrong post, photo, caption or comment can be taken out of context and easily misconstrued when in a relationship. Being single leaves one not vulnerable to this guilt.
Also no need of tracking someone’s social activity which can be a headache for a misunderstood post or comment.
