Relationships are special. They allow you to share your life with someone. That being said, I also love being single. That doesn't mean I don't want to be in a relationship one day, but I enjoy being single right now. It is what I need at this time in my life. I am young, in college and just trying to find myself and I would much rather do that on my own. Being single is powerful in its own ways. I am independent, free, and can do what I want to do. You can, of course, do that if you're in a relationship, but there is always someone else you have to think about. Being single lets me take care of myself and my priorities without hesitation. Here are seven reasons I enjoy being single today.

I can put myself and my feelings first.

I am more independent.

I can wait for the right person at the right time.

My priorities are all about my future.

We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions.
