being single is underrated
Single, alone, without a husband, without children… You understand. Well that’s me. And probably you because you are reading this. Or maybe it’s not you at all. Whoever you are, you can still benefit.
I was never really in a hurry to get married or have kids. I’m 28 -almost 29- and I’m still single. Some may see that as a bad thing, but I’m only focusing on myself. Shouldn’t that be our number one priority?
I’ve been in love once. And I have discovered that it consumes your life. Your life basically revolves around that person. It’s such an exciting feeling, but then you realize you’re losing yourself. You start to feel dependent on that person and trust them to make you happy. Being like this will only disappoint you.
Many people settle because they think they need to or because their parents want them to. We were raised to think this way. But I think it’s kind of sad that people think that relationships are the beginning and the end of personal happiness. It is not. At least in my opinion.
My parents divorced when I was young. But they also got married before they were 21. Did they get married too soon? Or did they just not work? I’m not too sure about that answer, but I know that nowadays it’s more socially acceptable to be single at my age, thankfully.
Many people stress about finding someone to share their life with for fear of running out of time. They search and search for that person without realizing that they are looking for someone to: a) fill a void they think they can’t fill, or b) because their biological clock is ticking, “Kids-kids!” Either way, if those are your reasons, then you are settling for the wrong one and will most likely be disappointed.
I believe that if you take the time to learn about yourself, discover what inspires you, and see that your own love is enough, you will settle for being alone and won’t mind waiting for that person to congratulate you. life. Learning to be like this allows you to find a person of higher quality. In other words, you get a stronger, longer lasting love.
I believe there is someone out there for everyone. Take advantage of every moment of your single life. No hurry.
