Problem #6: Coming to terms with the word "single."

I'm not that great with math, but...


single ≠ alone, hopeless unwanted, ugly, messed up, boring, psycho, emotionally burdensome and/or a cat lady
single = no commitment, freedom, not tied down


as college has shown us,
freedom = fun


therefore,
single = fun


This doesn't mean I'm anti-relationship. Really, relationships are great. But at some point or another, everyone's single. If you go steadily from relationship to relationship without a break in between, you might have issues. So while you are single, make the best of it and come to terms with the fact that nothing is wrong with you. And enjoy the time you have where the only person you have to worry about is yourself. 


For example, let's say you're graduating college and you're set on going to grad school in NYC, but your boyfriend lives in say, Virginia. Rather than going where you initially would have, maybe you decided to settle and go somewhere closer to where he's living next year. Not so good, right?


If you're in a relationship, that's great. If you're single and end up finding an amazing guy sometime soon, that's awesome. But in the mean time, focus on yourself and do what you want.
