10. You manage your money better
When you are in a serious relationship, you have to spend a lot for your significant other, whether it is for expensive gifts or for the dates you go on, to high-end restaurants. While spending the money you have earnt, you have to always think of your partner before you make any decision. If you are single, you can handle your finances better and save a lot more. You are in full control of your money and you can spend it the way you want to, without having to explain or justify it.
9. You don’t have to put up with annoying habits
There may be many qualities and habits which you dislike in your partner. And even if you let them know about it, they may take it personally and it may lead to issues. Sometimes, they won’t change. They may not be willing to change. Why change, they may not be willing to try, even! Then you tend to get annoyed and your partner feels belittled. You don’t have to tolerate another person’s annoying habits if you are single. But if you are in a relationship, it becomes imperative that you do, or else how will the relationship sustain?
8. No worrying about how you look
If you have a date coming up, you start picking out the right outfit, doing your hair perfect, getting your face cleansed etc. You talk to your friends about it and ask them how you look. You start worrying if you have put on too much of weight. You look at yourself in the mirror, standing in every position possible, to make sure that you have pulled off that perfect look. Why all this stress? Just for that one date? Is it really worth all your time and attention? If you are single, you don’t have to worry so much about your looks and you can be your flamboyant self. Being single is all about being carefree and natural!
7. No one to control you
When you are single, you are all by yourself. You will love the freedom. There is no one to control you, no one to tell what to do and when. Your nagging partner will not be present to be critical of you. You don’t have to please or impress anyone. You are at your own free will to do anything that you may want to. Anything offbeat and conventional! You don’t have to explain to anyone as to what your activities will be.
6. Always ready to mingle!
You give away a part of your heart, a part of yourself when you are committed to someone. And you will never get this part back. You will discover your true potential, the might of your abilities, your greatest strengths and your biggest weaknesses only when you are single. You face difficulties alone, but you also combat them alone, with your power alone. You are very independent and self-reliant. You have ample time to hone and pursue your passion. Being single is self-discovery at its best.
