Why You Should Stay Single

To be alone forever. Some people’s greatest fear. A table for one at a fancy restaurant, falling asleep in a cold bed, a quiet,-empty house. With no one to share your wins and losses with. No one to witness your happiest moments or comfort you in your most difficult ones.

It’s that sinking feeling in your chest. Imagining that you’re unlovable and undesirable and fearing you might remain that way forever.

But what if we could change our thinking about being single and focus more on the positive aspects of it?

Here’s why you should stay single.

Honestly, I am almost 24 and never been in a romantic relationship, never had my hand held, never kissed a girl, obviously never had sex. Sometimes I feel like that doesn’t allow me to fully appreciate being alone, since it’s all I ever known.

Bold of you to share this on valentines Day.

Well said! Better to be on your own than be with the WRONG person!

I choose to stay single because I feel like I just function better by myself to be honest. I also enjoy being able to do what I want in life.

I'm isolated by my own actions, struggling with relationships due to mental health issues and societal pressures, haunted by painful memories and bitterness towards myself and the world, I feel exhausted and powerless amidst the chaos.

Never been in a relationship before. Life`s been great still, the sky still above, still blue, the food taste as good, the coffee smells as good, the sun shines the same.

One of the worst feelings is getting into a relationship and later realizing it was a mistake.

Coming home to an empty apartment and waking up in it, are some of the great pleasures of life.

I'm 71 years old and I've been single most of my life. Yes I've had my love affairs, but I have to admit I love being single.

[mikkoamour]

I literally told my friend these exact things this morning. I'm going to be single and stay single. Meeting people is exhausting.

Loneliness is a fear that many face. But if you can face that loneliness, accept it, love it, then the fear doesnt exist anymore. Imagine living a life where youre not motivated by the fear of loneliness. Imagine living a life where your happiness is not dependent on a person or thing outside of yourself.

Was in a relationship from 16yo to 27yo. It definitely stunted my growth as a person. Took me a couple years to learn how to be alone

[shanebracken]

Being single is the happiest I’ve ever been, I realized I don’t need to be in a relationship at all and I accepted that fact

Detachment is key. I'm 61 and have been single for 29 years. Life is good. I want for nothing.
