ADVANTAGE AND DISADVANTAGES OF BEING SINGLE

Let’s explore this status known as “single”. It is state of standing alone,having one being individually set as person who is single, viewing one according to the definition of “single” could be a depressing thought .It is only in the peak of loneliness that individuals admit their need for companionship.Especially during one particular anti-single holiday appropriate nicknamed “v-day” individuals desire relationship status.Though true for some,many singles embrace their singlehood.Being single does not pose to be a burden but rather an excuse to live with an individual frame of mind.The need or indifference to find love all depends on where an individual stands mentality and emotionally.Life suits us differently.
As a single person,I have experienced the “singlehood” at highs and lows.I can recount many stories from friends both male and female of their perspective of being single.I found myself pleased to learn that single life is not universally similar.From my own experience and those of those of others, I compiled two separate lists one being the top 5 advantages and the other the 5 advantages of being single.
Advantages:
1.You do not have to consider another person when making life decisions for yourself.
2.You can enjoy the hunt of dating;meeting different people without the headache of having to commit.
3.Going about your day carefree;leaving out and returning at your leisure without having to be courteous enough to your significant other regarding your whereabouts.
4.Have more time to spend with friends and family.Friends and family tend to rag when you are always with your significant other and neglect to spend time them.
5.During the holidays you get gifts solely for you as opposed to a couple or household gift.
Disadvantages:
1.You have to search for a date for outings that require one..i.e. company parties or double dates.
2.You get less money for taxes.
3.During inclement weather ,you often get restricted to the house with no one with whom you can share the moment.
4.When it rains it pours and when it doesn’t there is a drought when you are on a roll meeting new people and exploring the dating scene it is like the weather Girl’s song “It’s raining men”. But when the dating pool it fresh out and your bait is not as enticingmyou feel the void.
5.Family and friends always ask about past relationship that did not work out often,they ask at the wrong time,i.e. when you bring someone new to dinner.
