This Is The Reason You're Single

It's not the reason you think.

This Is The Reason You're Single
Stocksnap.io

You're single because it's just not your time, it's that simple.

There is nothing wrong with you, stop picking yourself apart. It's honestly that simple, right now you're meant to be alone. You're meant to spend time with your friends and family, but most of all you're meant to spend time with yourself.

You're meant to take yourself on dates. Meant to watch crappy romcoms by yourself and meant to focus on your own future right now.

You aren't single because you skipped the party, or stayed home when your friends wanted to take you out. You aren't single because you spoke to loud or voiced your opinions. Why should you silence yourself for a man's sake?

Don't fall for that bullshit sweetheart.

You aren't single because you sing too loud and off key, for focusing on your grades or for working long hours to pay the bills. You aren't single because you made out with some guy when you swore you'd stay sober that night.

You aren't single because you went back to him even after he broke you and you aren't single because you chose to leave again. I'm still proud that you chose yourself.

You aren't single for being too passionate, too loud, too involved, too caring, too guarded, too opinionated, or too loving.

You aren't single because you're not more like her. It was honestly his lost.

You are single because you are single.

It truly is that simple.

You did nothing wrong, it's just not your time. So my darling, please focus on yourself right now. You won't be single forever, even if it feels that way now. Live this life for yourself because one day you will have someone else to focus on and there will be days that you will miss when you could be selfishly single.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
