Being single isn’t about being alone, it’s about being by yourself. If you’re going to be single, do it right. If you’re going to stand alone when everyone is telling you to couple down, stand tall. Be f*ckng single. Rock the single life. Become the person you were meant to be. Show, by example, that you’re single by choice, not by accident.
It’s about finding passion in your life, not between the sheets.The best part about being single is looking for that one thing (or multiple things) that will absorb into you and wrap itself around you. It’s going to be something you miss and yearn for the way you did an ex-lover. Only your passions will always love you back. It will never stray or leave you without warning. It will never become part of your life then disappear. Your passions are the only things that should come into bed with you before a man or woman.
It’s about giving love away without needing it back.
Being single isn’t about looking for someone to love you, but rather, looking for anything and everything to love. It’s about loving everything you come in contact with. It’s about forging relationships that don’t need reciprocation and throwing you heart away without fear you won’t get it back. It’s about loving multiple people at one time while having a simultaneous love affair with your favorite books, movies and new passions.
It’s about making yourself a better person, not someone else.
This is the time to look for healing, not for love. It’s the time that we use to make ourselves better, even if it takes five years to do. This time alone is when you should be working on making yourself whole. It’s when you should be exploring your weaknesses and flaws and building yourself into a better person. Because you can’t possibly try to make someone else better if you don’t know what’s wrong with yourself.
It’s about devoting your life to one person, not two.
Being selfish is only a problem when you’re with someone. Being alone and worrying about yourself when you’re single isn’t selfish, it’s necessary. Your life is completely and totally yours, with no one to take up your time or tell you you’re wasting too much without them. Being alone and being in love with yourself is one of the most enviable relationships we can attain.
It’s about adhering to your own schedule, not someone else’s.
It’s about eating dinner when you want, waking up when you’re ready and creating a life suited only around your own needs. There’s time to see old friends and hang out with people you wouldn’t otherwise see when wrapped up in a life for two. It’s not about going out and trying to find someone to pencil in. It’s about keeping your calendar as free and spontaneous as every couple could only envy.
