Many people hate being single. They especially hate it when they are single on Valentine's Day. While there are perks of being in a relationship or married; there are also many perks to be single.
1. Time to work on yourself.
When a person gets into a relationship they throw much care and time into one particular relationship just so it will work out or grow into a "perfect" relationship. Often when people do this they end up almost molding into their significant other, such as liking the same shows/movies and the same activities that they never liked before. Soon after the relationship is at a comfortable place you'll look back going "Man I disappeared" so then once you try to figure out who you are and what you want again the relationship is in jeopardy and the cycle starts all over. If you take the time while you're single to know you and work on yourself then the problems I talked about earlier may not happen.
2. No need to "check in" with anyone.
When I was a teenager (about 15 - yes that was 10 years ago) I dated this guy who insisted that I call every hour or stay on the phone with him for hours just so he knew I was at home, and if I did not call him then it was always "Where were you?" or "Who were you with?". Don't be that person that is desperate for a relationship that you sacrifice your freedom for your significant other.
3. Having a Night Out on the Town
Some people are active and other people prefer to stay home. A lot of the time when you've been in a relationship for months you don't feel the need to go out and mingle with other people. Those who do love to go dancing and go have a drink can while they're single, but in a relationship the other person may be uncomfortable with it.
4. Work on your hobby or take up a new hobby.
Relationships take a lot of time and energy in life. If you love to craft, you may not have time for doing that once you start dating someone new, or you may not have time to try a new hobby. Work on getting better with one hobby or get a new hobby.
5. The freedom to travel.
Many people have a list of places they want to go. If you have the money and you're single than you should just go for it! I mean hello you have to live a little.
6. Give back to your community.
Giving back to your community can fill you with a good vibe, and you're also helping out your local community. This is also a great way to connect with new people who also share your similar interest.
