We all dream of that guy who will hold us while we cry, laugh at our stupid jokes, and spoil us on every holiday and anniversary - and there’s nothing wrong with having this fantasy. There’s nothing wrong with thinking about how your life could be better with a guy, and you definitely are not alone in doing it. But I’m gonna list out to you why you are (or could be) happier now, single, than in a relationship.

1. You have no commitments

No weekly date-nights, no duty to tend to another person’s feelings, nada. It’s all about YOU.

2. You see your girlfriends WAY more

And be honest, you have more fun with them anyway.

3. There’s no pressure to look good all the time

No makeup, no jeans, no combing of the hair, no problem. Let your gross, nasty self-free.

4. Fewer pregnancy scares

Notice how I said FEWER and not ZERO if you’re still freaking in the streets then there’s still a chance sweetie, just a smaller one.

5. Landscaping is optional

If fewer hands are entering the cookie jar, then why can’t the cookie jar grow a carpet.

6. You never have to share your food

You never were gonna do this anyway, now you don’t have to feel guilty about your selfish eating habits.

7. You don’t have to fake liking that Netflix shows that makes you wanna gauge your eyes out

And not only Netflix, any movie you go see is your choice too.

8. Christmas is a whole lot cheaper

Who doesn’t want a few more dollars in their pocket?

9. Freedom at a frat party

Four guys in one night? Have at it, hunny.

10. Less drama

One less person in your life to argue with.

11. No In-Laws to impress

Three fewer people to impress and prove yourself to even though you had nothing to prove in the first place.

12. NO FORTNITE

That’s right, you’re no longer number to in a man’s 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.

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.
