I remember few years back when we were always warned against entering a "romantic relationship". You will always hear sermons from your aunts, parents and church leaders. They fear us being married at an early age and not finishing our college education. I broke the rules, but that is for another topic. Now, whenever there is occasions and family gatherings... its not anymore being warned of not having someone but the questioning face and queries why i still don't have someone. Of course a lot factors adds up to that. I won't post that either. One thing that i know is that maybe God wants me to experienced single hood... i just hope that it is just a chapter in my life. There are things to love being single....
1. You can edit your pictures with your celebrity crushes. Do things without someone grimacing at you.
2. You have are available to your family and friends. Most especially that i spend all my life in school...this is the time i get to know my friends and my family.
3. It gives you time to really realized what you want in your career and life without considering someone.
4. You can have a lot looooooot of crushes without being guilty.
5. The feeling of being available can sometimes make you feel sexy no matter what your size is.
6. It gives you time to realized your mistakes, why it didn't worked out with your past relationship, things to improved not because someone says so but because you want to be a better person for yourself, your foolishness, the embarrassing things you did, see the blind spots you didn't saw before
7. Time to heal, reflect and be independent
8. Growing up with yourself
9. Dating...gives you opportunity to grow up with others
10. It gives you time.... until you can say to yourself that you had enough and you are really ready to commit.... that you ready to take in another life in your life.... without the extra baggage's..... and that is because of love.... not for any other reason....
11....lots lots more......

in everything there are pros and cons, disadvantages and advantages.... while being single is fun and rewarding... it gave me time to really know myself, the things i have to improve, there are things that being single has to offer that is not at all that pleasing, sometimes it is lonely but it gives you valuable lessons and realizations and awkward circumstance.....
----When you have friends and they started getting married.... aside from change of quantity time with them.... the maturity suddenly becomes distinct between the married ones and the not... topics suddenly become so odd... like there are additional issues single ones cannot understand or have a say.
----You go to meet your friends at your hangout and suddenly be surprised to see that there are only the three of you. While hanging out you experienced moments with your single friends when no one is saying a thing... until one breaks out that there is more to flirting, make-ups, clothes.... and everyone agreeing as if you all are dragged into marriage and family things.... and it really makes me sigh...
.... and suddenly you hear yourself or your friend talking astoundingly adult!
----You will experienced an occasion when everyone brought along their significant others. It makes me pout.
----You become exceptionally observant of every sweet gesture you didn't see before like the way couples hold each others hands....the way they plant kiss on each other.... things you never considered before and now to you it become a prize treasure. A very valuable thing. You suddenly become hug starve. (This is a my own woman's opinion of course).
--Your secrets becomes yours alone.

And the conclusion.... i don't know how to end it really without being out of the topic...
i just hope that my journey does not end loving being single(haha!) and just realizing things... i hope to get the most out of my solitude. Some of the reason above maybe shallow but there is more to things than what it may seem. It will be your own personal experienced to find out. May i be after this be worthy of someone's prayer.
