Society often pressures women young and old into believing they need a man to be happy. Somebody to give them attention, take care of them, and make them feel whole. However we are perfectly fine being alone. We are amazing and whole all by ourselves and being single rocks! So in the spirit of Valentines day I have for you 19 reasons why being single at 19 is so fantastic.

1. You don't have to answer to anybody

The world is your oyster and your success is up to you. No one is sitting around telling you what to do and how to do it.

2. Doing whatever you want whenever you want

Anytime day or night you can just go and do and be free.

3. Girls night every night!

Who needs boys when you've got your best friends?

4. All your money is ALL yours

No worries about figuring out gifts or how much to spend on your significant other. All the money in your bank account belongs to you and you don't have to worry about buying dinner or any other random items to make them happy.

5. You get to be the fun, sassy, and single friend

Emphasis on the sassy!

6. Making time for other people isn't a problem

You don't need to make time for boys or anybody at all. All your time can be spent fulfilling personal goals or with friends. The possibilities are endless.

7. You don't have to pay attention to anyone

If you're anything like me you're awful about texting back, calling back, snapchatting back, etc. This isn't a problem however because you have no one that's going to be upset if you fall off the grid for six hours.

8. Flirting

Anyone, anywhere, at anytime can be the next victim. I mean honestly, are any of us good at flirting?

9. Freedom to date a variety of people

You can go out on a date with whoever you want and however many times you want. Nothing has to be serious and none of these dates need to go anywhere so just have fun!

10. Personal grooming doesn't need to be at the top of your list

If you don't wanna shave your legs for a few weeks who is going to be there to care? You don't even have to brush your hair if you don't want to because nobody will get close enough to notice.

11. No worries about their parents liking you

No more of those awkward family dinners and events you were dragged to to please the future in-laws. No more attempts at impressing parents and pretending to be the perfect girl for their son.

12. No random insignificant fights

They are always super annoying and over something that will be completely irrelevant in a week. Like what to eat or why you didn't call him back right away.

13. You only have yourself to please

I want to wear a shirt with dogs on it and socks with chickens on it to my 8am and nobodies going to care. Need I say more?

14. Guy friends

You don't have to care or wonder if it upsets your boyfriend that your best friend is male or that you have friends that are male.

15. No compromise!

This is by far my most favorite part about being single. I hate compromise and I love having things my way. When you're single you can have everything your way all the time.
