I'm young, I'm in college, and I've been single for a long time. For some reason, this is a shock to a lot of people and they think I need to do something about it. I don't agree. I think that now is a perfect time to be single, to work on myself, and to not worry about "finding someone." In my opinion there's so much time left, and right now there's a bunch of stuff I'd rather do than worry about a boyfriend. Here's a couple.
Watch Netflix (ALONE)
I'm one of those people who gets way too into their TV shows, so honestly it's best if no one is there to watch it with me. Trust me, nobody wants to be there when I'm finished the last episode of a season.
Work on my education
I've only got 2 years left in college, and I'll be damned if I let anyone, especially a boyfriend get in the way of me finishing strong.
Go shopping, for myself
Let's face it.. being in a relationship means that you spend a lot more money. It's like an unwritten rule you have to pay for each other, and get each other gifts on holidays. Really it's just a hassle, stressful, and less money for yourself.
Travel
Not that you can't for sure travel with a significant other, I personally like traveling alone. I like going on long drives with just me and the radio. Also, it's a lot easier to plan a trip around one person's schedule than to have to worry about someone else's getting in the way of your own fun.
Be picky, when picking a restaurant
Being with someone else means that you are eating with someone else majority of the time. For one, I do not like watching or listening to someone else eat, and I want to pick where we go. Compromising isn't hard, but I don't have to do it right now, nor do I want to when it comes to my food.
Have fun with my friends
Like I said, I am young and still in college. While some of my friends are in relationships, majority of them are single like me. Hanging out with them means we get to be care-free, worry-free, and boy-free. Girls nights out are probably some of the best memories I have in college so far.
Now, to be clear I'm not bitter about relationships, and I'm not pushing anyone away. I just am not avidly looking for anyone. If someone were to come along and change my mind I'd (not so happily) get used to buying gifts, eating somewhere I don't like, and cuddling during Netflix, but for now I'll stick to my usual routine of having fun all by myself.
