Don’t stress. Being single is fabulous. If you are on your own today, grab a cup of tea and open a box of chocolates and write down what you love about being single. Some of my top reasons to love being single:
My space is my own. I don’t have to pick up after anyone but myself. No dirty socks that couldn’t find their way to the hamper, toilets seats left up and dishes anywhere but in the kitchen. If I choose to blare Great Big Sea or Disney songs from the stereo, there is no one there to complain. The bonus with this is no one ever steal my covers or hogs the bed. Well except my cat.
My time is my own. I don’t have to ask permission to lunch with my friends, go out for the evening or feel bad about wanting to stay home.
No in-laws. I know not everyone has problems with their in-laws, but when I look around at some of my friends I’m glad I don’t have to deal with that kind of tricky relationship. Dealing with my own family is stressful enough!
My money is my own. This is a biggie for me. I don’t have to justify spending a ton of money on books and travelling. I also don’t have to worry that someone else will spend when I want to save.
