8 Reasons Why I'm Single: As Told By Jess Day

Being single is A-Ok. Don't believe me? Just see what Jess Day has to say about being single.

1. I'm cool.


Really, though. I'm cool. I listen to different music, I eat interesting foods, I love art museums. I like cool things. And sometimes when you're cool, like me, people tend to not be into you. They can't deal with all the coolness. Especially if they're cool, too. It's like way too much cool for one couple to handle. And because i'm cool, I one-hundred-and-ten percent understand that.

2. I sing to myself ... a lot

In the car, the shower, sometimes in the grocery store. Basically, I'm always jamming out, whether I'm alone or with others. I'd like to think I'm doing the male population a favor by staying single.

3. To put it frankly, I'm batshit crazy.

Not even just towards males or relationships, but in ever aspect of my life. I'm crazy about working out. Crazy about getting good grades. Crazy (in love) with my dog. Basically, I'm a crazy person. And that tends to not work out too well in relationships. So I steer clear.

4. I can drink

It's a Tuesday and I've got nowhere to be until tomorrow at noon. I am going to have a drink. Or three. And no one can stop me.

I've noticed that, when you're in a relationship, you have to tend to your partner's wants and needs as well as yours. Sure, some of that is easy. But I want to do what I want to do. And I don't need another person holding me back from doing that.

5. I like being alone

Breakups suck. And when you've invested a lot into them, they suck even more. I'd prefer to stay alone and happy than run the risk of getting my feelings hurt over a boy again.

6. Public affection annoy me

PDA is not in my forte.

7. I have the hots for everyone.

And I'd really like to keep it that way. I want to be able to go out for Sunday brunch and look all I want at the males surrounding me. Maybe even go introduce myself. Having that opportunity always open is a nice way to live.

8. I'm really, truly blessed with being happy and being single.


Some people don't have the pleasure of loving themselves and the confidence to be happy about being single. I do, and I couldn't ask for much more out of life.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
