One less person to hey.
One less person to disappoint.
One less person to make my heart ache.
Ieva Urenceva
1.I can do whatever I want, whenever I want.
I can spend money on myself with zero regard for what anyone else thinks.
I dont have to factor anyone else into my plans or life decisions.
It can be lonely sometimes, but its also delightfully selfish.
2.Everything in my car and apartment is exactly where it should be.
3.Being able to sleep diagonally across my bed, so much space!
4.I dont have to chose between hanging with my friends or my SO.
5.Not getting dragged into lame events with her family that essentially ruin my weekend.
Oh no, Itotallywant to drive three hours and hangout with your family this weekend.
I never have to justify my joy.
Im my own person.
Full, complete, and content.
And no one can drain that from me.
This is what I love about being single.
7.That stuff can just happen.
If I want to change my entire weekend plans, bam done.
If I stumble upon a thing that happens and want to participate, boom done.
If I dont want to talk to anyone, ka-blam done.
8.The main thing is that I can live my own life.
No drama, fights, etc..
I have my friends which are the same thing, and are reliable to talk to.
9.Nobody is cheating on me.
10.I enjoy not worrying about their success.
12.You dont wake up because someone else is snoring…

-Home from work early?
Angry because he couldnt have had dinner ready earlier.
(Its okay; I can do chores while you cook.
I dont need to eat the instant I walk in the door.)
-Home from work slightly (20 minutes) later than normal?
Dinner ruined, inconsiderate and selfish.
-Did the laundry, but didnt include his stuff?
-Did the laundry, included his stuff?
Did it wrong, now he needs to do it again, complains the entire time.
-Didnt have an opinion on what to watch?
Not engaged in relationship, made him feel unloved.
-Asked a hypothetical question about which character in a show was the sexiest?
Obviously accused him of cheating, dont trust him.
15 minutes of shouting followed by storming out and door slamming.
