The beauty of being single..

Being a single lass in the city is not a big issue nowadays.. You'll see even a 40 year old lady still enjoys her life without worrying in a fact that they are wasting their fertility and reaching nearer to the world of menopause. Whereas, being a so called spinster was always a big curse in the 'ancient' society. Come to think of it, yeah.. u'll be missing out those luxuriate and pleasure of marriage, halal sex, kids and good future.. But hey, its not the end of the world yet. For those who are worried too much on accepting the fact that their age is addened up each year, celebrating your birthday without hugs and kisses from the dear ones.. or having to watch romantic flick with your galfriends or a total stranger beside you (for lass) forever or watching pornography and end up pleasuring your Joe (for lads).. sit down and think.. how the word "single" can be a good therapy for you. There's nothing cranky about being single.. don't be grumpy over small things.. Being attached won't entitle you free tickets to a good future..yet! there are some sacrifices and cost that you have to bare. Taking 2 arses into consideration.. these are 'self relief' for the singles out there to ponder upon..

This is my favourite... enjoy and appreciate your independence.. You can use your newfound free time for solitary fun, as well as self-improvement. Being single forces you to do things for yourself, like cook, do laundry and tidy up your pad. Being skilled at many things makes you a more complete, well-rounded person, a great card to hold when you decide to reenter the dating market. Brush up your skills gals and boys... erm.. theres other things to brush up as well other than sex skills and watching pornos.. hehehhe..

You can control your finances..However, understand that this does not mean that you will save money, on the contrary; you might be spending more on partying, dressing well, and so on. But at least you are the master of every single dollar you spend.

You have more time for activities.. When you're single, you have no reason to sit around doing nothing. Want to harden your body at the gym? Play a new instrument? How about watch the same chick flick or Star Wars for the 111th time? Who's stopping you? Go ahead!

You can even use the time that you'd spend pleasing your single friends and enjoy each other's company without being interrogated by your partner afterwards or during the meeting. After all, isn't neglecting your friends one of the biggest sacrifices of couplehood?

You don't have to tolerate your partner's moodiness & nagging. Gals and boys, how many times have you have to
go back to your best buds pouring all your problems about your woman/man was livid for reasons you still don't understand? Relish not being the target of his/her inexplicable mood swings, and the calm that comes when there's no nagging or obsessive controls. When you noticed you actually finished up a big bucket of haagen dasz or a box with full of chocolate or junk food.. you'll know its because you chose to do it.. When you wake up on the couch, you'll know it's because you chose to pass out there.

You don't have to deal with another's personal habits. You used to cringe when he puts the wet tea bag on the table cloth, or scratching his balls publically or producing a masticating sound while eating(that annoys me to the max!)or she used your razor to shave her legs, and the scented candles she burned in every room made you sick. Now there's no irritating habits to tolerate. You can sleep peacefully without his/her snoring and hog all the blankets without a care in the world. You have no one to pick up after but yourself. Give your patience a well-deserved break and live in unflustered.

You can focus on your career (this matters the most to me!) Life is a juggling act in which you have to keep the many elements aloft, paying equal attention to each one. But if you let one drop, you can channel your forces to the remaining parts. In the absence of a relationship, you'll have much more time to devote to your work. You can put in those extra hours on a project to impress your boss, and even take on something else. And you don't have to worry about sacrificing your love life, as you'll be single and vigorous.

You can be your own boss.. Relationships are synonymous with compromise. You eventually have to sacrifice something you really like; watching chick flick with your galfriends or a football game or extra cheese on your pizza..for the good of the pair. Use your single time to treat yourself a little more. In small doses, selfishness is good for the soul. Being your own boss also means answering to no one. You went to a strip club or a gay club? You got the scent of some woman's perfume all over your clothes? or having tonnes of numbers of the opposite genders in your phonebook! Enjoy not having to explain your actions.

Well, dude.. everything i say may not be right.. but either options has good sides; you just have to learn to spot it! Society places too much importance on finding a mate, something your hormones are quick to enforce. The next time you get that pesky feeling that you have to be with someone, remember these points, and you'll savor the joys of being a free bird.
