10 reasons being single rocks--really!


 

Check these out, too...

  • Help! My BF told everyone we kissed--but we didn't!
  • Look. Love. Repeat.
  • Do long distance relationships work?
  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • How to deal with a bad kisser
Stop getting green with envy around couples and start appreciating your independence! From girl time to grades and BGFs, there are tons of reasons why you should be loving the single life. 

 

Not having to listen to guys talk about guy things
Do you really care about how many slices of pizza he can eat, how green the grass is on that baseball field or how many letters he can belch in the alphabet? We didn’t think so.

 

No interruptions 
Being single means not feeling like you have to stop and answer his texts while you’re hanging with your BGF, having a dance sesh with your bestie or watching a movie with your fam. 

 

Never missing girls’ nights
Skip out on gossip and makeovers with your girls to watch your boyfriend and his buds play video games all night? Never!

 

Keeping it comfy
Just feel like lounging in sweats today? You’re not trying to impress anyone; go for comfort.

 

Better grades
No boy distraction means more time for school. So put that free time to good use and go for those straight A’s!

 

You can order onion rings
You’re not kissing anyone anyway, right? Munch away!

 

No BGF drama
You can hang out with your BGF without worrying about your BF getting weird or jealous.

 

Cute boys
Spot a cute guy in gym class? Eyeing that hottie in math? Being single means there’s no reason to hold back, so get flirting.

 

Not being ditched for sports
Single gals don’t get ditched for watching the game on TV after they already did their makeup.

 

More time for you!
Being single means less compromising and less sacrificing! Focus on your interests and goals and do whatever you want whenever you want. Ahh freedom.

i made the volleyball team but my two other friends didnt..they thought for sure they were gonna make it. i feel bad. i didnt think i was gonna make it and then i did and my friends were like this always happens, ur good at everything. they seem fine now but now i cant talk about volleyball cuz they're just gonna get maad. what shouldd i doo

 

Hey! Just wait it out, it'll blow over. If you want to talk about volleyball I think that's ok, just don't rub it in their faces. If they seem upset that you're talking about it just explain that you're not talking about it to hurt them, volley ball's just a part of your life now and friends talk about their lives with eachother Smile

So i've liked this guy for 3 years (ik a long time) and last year I became really good friends with him. Now we talk ALL the time and we're practically best friends. Everyone says we should date and he always answers with "we're JUST friends". Only my best friend knows I like him. So today we were texting and he says he likes two of my best friends a LOT. I want to help him, but it hurts a little bit every time he says how much he likes them and I've been HARDCORE FRIEND ZONED. I would usually ask my best friend for advice on this but he kind of likes her and I swore not to tell. Most people would tell me to tell him I like him but I'm not sure if it'd ruin our friendship. I'm so confused. Should I help him win them over, not get involved, or pretend it's not happening?

 

Hey! I would just not get involved. If he asks you why you can always say that you don't want to get mixed up in your friends' love lives because that's true.  good luck, I hope you feel better about this soon. you can do it!

MODMODMOD so there's this cute guy who i sit next to in spanish & is also in my study hall. i like him, but i'm not really sure if he likes me back! we talk a lot in class and say hi to each other outside of class, like at band practices and in the hallways. and a few days ago i was buying food in the cafeteria after school, and he was in line a few places ahead of me. i saw him stick his head out and look at me, and when i looked back at him he immediately looked away. i've seen him do this a few other times too! what do you think? thanks so much!

 

Hey! I think from what you've told me it seems like he might have a crush on you Smile

So I know it's not the right topic to talk about but I recently shaved my arms, legs, and armpits just for joining the girls basketball team, I went to my friend's house to do it, I didn't tell my mom I did that, she said I can start shaving when I'm 15, I will be in 3 months, so I had to shave since it got very hairy and I am an indoor person wearing long sleeves, sweaters, jackets and long pants to cover up my body so yeah..I asked my friend will the hair grow back more thicker, she said it's true but you got to shave once every month since she does that with her venus shaving razor/thing? I'm worried about that! I am like my dad so I got a lot of hair, and what if I have to keep wearing long sleeves the rest of my life to cover it up, shaving is too much time! I wish there was a cream to remove it! UGH! My mom was thinking about waxing but she also said that it doesn't really matter if you shave or not, people got to like you for who you are and how you already look..

 

hey! You're mom's right, you should only shave if you want to. There are hair removal creams, but I've heard they're not as effective as shaving. I find shaving every 1-2 weeks keeps things in check. good luck!

There are so many reasons, a lot more than 10. The big ones are that you can devote more time to yourself and studies. And then there is the reason because you dont have to feel pressured into doing certain things. There are so many reasons. Name some more.
