6 Reasons You're Better Off Without Him

Sometimes, even the perfect person can be holding you back. Chances are if your friends, family, or even your gut feeling are telling you that your current partner isn't the right fit- he probably isn't. But before you get down about a breakup, remember there are 6 billion other possible partners on this Earth and the most important person to love is yourself. Below are the 6 reasons you're better off without your current partner.

1. You have time to yourself

Finally, you can take up the whole bed without worrying if your boyfriend is now sleeping on the floor!

2. You remember the squad

For the first time in months you can go out and party with your squad- and not complain about the argument you just had with your bf.

3. You become your priority

Now you can plan that study abroad trip without worrying about if your long distance relationship will survive. Suddenly, the world is yours for the taking!

4. You spend more time with your family

Instead of spending all your free time with your partner, you now make time to see your parents and catch up with your siblings. Nothing feels better than a home cooked meal and waking up in your old bed.

5. You dress up for yourself

Finally, you can dress however you want, without worrying if your partner is going to like it or not. Plus, you can spend two hours doing your hair/makeup without someone complaining, "are you ready yet!?".

6. You find yourself

With all the free time you now have, you'll probably discover new things about yourself. Maybe you like kickboxing, traveling, drinking wine, or a new type of music. You never know until you give yourself the chance to explore new things.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
