In High School, I was the Queen of non-commitment. I would basically sprint in the other direction when just the idea of being put into a relationship came my way. I thought that once I was in a relationship I would continuously be putting all this effort in to look nice everyday and work hard to make them happy all the time. But that was until I was in a relationship, and I saw that it actually is HARD AS HELL to be single.

When you're in a relationship, you can throw your hair up everyday and never wear nice clothes because you aren't trying to impress everyone in the world anymore. Your significant other (hopefully) likes you because of who you are and not just your clothes anymore. But when you're single, oh my lord. Everyday is the fashion runway day. You have to look nice, do your hair and makeup, and god forbid I walk outside in that hoodie I wore two times this week already.

Another thing when you're single, you have to get back into the mindset to decode the male brain again. You get all excited because you think that boy in the dining hall has finally noticed you, but in all actuality he's probably just wondering if that burger you put on your plate is any good.

But what really has made it hard to be single? Especially in this day and age? Social Media. Everything gets misinterpreted for what it really means. For example, you could like every single photo a boy posts, just in hopes that he'll notice you. And the second he likes just one of yours, well obviously that means things are getting pretty serious.

I used to be a firm believer in the idea that being in a relationship is hard, it was too much work for me to handle. Really? It is hard as all hell being single folks. Its like a learning to swim without floaties out here, and Im drowning. Godspeed to all the singles.
