Single and Happy

It’s interesting to talk about being single and happy. Too interesting until I hardly choose what to talk about. All right, I guess I’ll just my experience about how to be a happy single lady! Where’s my single sis at?!

Who says being single sucks? It’s not. The only thing that make it sucks is your mind. As Epictetus said “It’s bot things that trouble us, but our judgement about things.” You keep thinking that being single is pathetic. I admit that there are some days I feel lonely and wish I were in a relationship. But as the time goes by, I realize I could be single and still happy.

Being surrounded by loving friends make me a little bit forget that I’m single. I could spend as much time as I want to be with them. Doing all the fun things (in a good way), going to places and enjoying life. When I have something in my mind and need someone to talk to, I’ll call one of my friend then talk for hours.

So, what if all of my friends are busy with their life? I’ll spend my time for myself only. People call it “me-time”. I will make my coffee, open my laptop, set my bed and binge watch youtube video all day long. Or I will prepare some snacks and read any book. Or I will take my make up and put them on my face while sing along with my playlist. Or I will simply scroll down my Instagram. 

When I see a couple, do I envy them? Sometimes yes. It’s when I see my perfect kind of relationship. Do I want to be in a relationship? Of course, yes. But I’m not that tipe of people that will do any thing to get a man. I will not degrade my standards. It’s not my class. Sorry not sorry.

Are you happy? I am. I am a single woman and I can loudly say I’m happy. After all the things I passed in my life, I see that happiness doesn’t depend on your status. Whether you are a single person or you are in a relationship, you can be happy. Happiness is a choice. You do you. It’s all in your mind. If you want to find your way to be happy, then you will. It’s that simple.

So, for all of you single ladies, go dress up, wear your make up, go to the place you want to, do whatever you want to do as long as it is good for you. Live your life and be happy!
