Being Single As Told by Schmidt From 'New Girl'
Vulture

As a single-pringle, life is very different from that of your taken friends. The dating game is always mildly frustrating, but equally addictive, you don't have to worry about rocking the groufit, and there is so much freedom. Rocking a single status has its perks and definitely some downfalls. Schmidt from the television series New Girl knows better than anyone.

1. Some people look at being single as the end of the world.


But in reality, there are so many bigger problems in the world than not having a significant other.

2. But being single is actually pretty awesome.


"You mean I don't have to spend all my money on someone else, and I don't have to shave everyday? What a travesty!"

3. You can go out and have fun!

4. When it comes to playing it cool, sometimes you have 0 chill.

What are people attracted to anyway?

5. Sometimes you just want to bang the hot guy at the bar.


Because you can!

6. When your family members ask if you're seeing anyone...


The answer always gets a little tricky.

7. You try to be happy for your friends in relationships.

But you're just a teensy-bit jealous of their cuteness.

8. You never have to worry about being tied down, because...

9. Story-time with your friends in relationships is always entertaining.

The love to hear about all your dating escapades.

10. Sometimes you sink into a "forever alone" episode.


Full with crying, ice cream, and rom-coms.

11. And even though they try to comfort you, non-singles don't understand.

12. Looking another couple's PDA, just makes you sick.


Can you please remove the googly-eyes and hand-holding? Some of us are trying to be single in peace.

13. Sometimes you wonder if it's you.


Maybe there's something wrong with you.

14. And watching all your friends in relationships makes you feel lonely.

You miss having someone to talk to and love.

15. But then you remember that you're amazing, and you can do whatever you want!

And without judgment!

16. You can go out basically whenever you want.

And flirt your little heart out!

17. Coming home at the end of the night can be a little sad.


Body pillows are a single gals' best friend.

18. But at the end of the day, you know you are perfectly happy being single...


And absolutely killing it.

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.
