Flying Solo

After being single for such a long time it feels like i have mastered the ART OF BEING SINGLE.

I am not bothered by my relationship status and I am happy, I won't lie and say I sometimes don't wish I was in a relationship. I do feel that boyfie gap in my life but not often, it's when I am bored and I wish I had someone to annoy and keep me busy. you can't ignore that feeling when walking into a shop and see cute couples holding hands, it really does hit hand.

But that is not my problem, my problem is that people find it odd that a grown up like me is single. Don't know why but they do, so I decide to why not compile a list of benefits of being single. Because beside the cold nights and the absent feeling of being in a relationship there's also tons of benefits.



Benefits of Being Single:

- You can do things that are just for you without compromising for someone else.

-You can learn self - reliant and know how to trust yourself.

-You can focus on building yourself without distractions.

- Fewer responsibility when it comes to feeling and emotions consideration.

- Free from commitments.


Do not get into a wrong a relationship just because of societal standards or expectation. Do not stay in toxic relationships because you are scared of being single, you can migrate to this side of the world and still be happy and enjoy life. Our lives are not determined by our relationship status. I promise you it's not sad, lonely or depressing, it helps in determining what you want and getting your priorities right. Be a proud Single person take your time. As long as you haven't find what you are looking for don't settle this is not a job but it involves matters of the heart, emotions, satisfaction, connection and many other sacred matters.

“If you truly want to be respected by people you love, you must prove to them that you can survive without them.” ― Michael Bassey Johnson
