Being single is always fun, especially when you're 20 and it's summer vacay.

There are many reasons why I personally enjoy being single in the summer and here's a few of them:

1. You're not tied down.

Don't get me wrong, I love being able to come home to someone or have someone there to talk to about my day. However, there's something so liberating about not having to worry about a significant other. Being able to do whatever, whenever, with whoever you want is exciting.

2. There's more opportunity for spontaneity.

No one to answer to, be free and spontaneous with your girlfriends. Summer 2017 adventures to come.

3. You have more "girl time."

When you have a boyfriend, you find yourself getting wrapped up in them and your relationship. you tend to stop hanging out with your friends as much. Being single allows you to have copious amounts of girl time. I find that I spend A LOT of time with my girlfriends and my mom, which is so so important.

4. You have time for yourself.

I don't think there's anything more important than taking care of yourself and really focusing on what makes you happy.

5. You get to meet new people.

Being single means you're ready to mingle! You can create all new relationships with new people and the summer is the best time to do that.

6. You save money.

Only having to focus and worry about yourself usually leads you to saving money. You're not always out spending on your man or helping him split the bill. I noticed I wasn't spending as much money when I'm single. Especially with it being summer, gotta have that spending money!

7. It gives you time to figure out what kind of person you want to be with.

When you're single and dating, you get the chance to meet different people and gives you the opportunity to try and figure out what you do and do not want in a partner.

8. There's also more family time.

Not spending time with my boyfriend gives me more family time now that it's summer and I'm not in school.

9. You don't have to worry about a relationship when school gets back in.

Once summer ends, you can start the new semester ready to start fresh!

10. You have way more fun.

Being single is always more fun than being tied down. More room for adventure and spontaneity.


To those who have had a hard time figuring out how to enjoy being single, I hope my few reasons gave you a little bit a confident boost to kill the single game!

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
