The benefits of being single

According to the wonderful world of the internet

All you single ladies: do you still remember all those benefits of being single?? Delicious, if I may say so myself. I mean, you never have to argue because Mr. takes the blankets from you every night or because he always wants to watch football on Sundays. But if you're still looking for even more good reasons why it's so nice; the best ones you can find, of course, on the world wide web. Here are the funniest responses from people to the question of what they like most about being single:

  • ‘Life can be as cheap as you want it to be.’
  • ‘As a man, I would say it's nice to have control over the heating. Women always hijack that stuff and set it to like twenty-six degrees.’ Okay, this might come from a man, but I can relate to this.
  • ‘I’m so glad I can fart whenever I want.’
  • ‘You don’t have to share your pizza.’ AMEN.
  • ‘You have much more space in your memory because you don’t have to remember information like anniversaries, favorite ice cream, a second name, or anything else.’
  • ‘You never have to explain to anyone why you follow that one boy who is always topless on Instagram.’
  • ‘Because you don’t have to buy expensive gifts at Christmas. This way you have more money to spend on your cats.
  • ‘You don’t have to worry about life-changing decisions like a new job or moving and the fact that it affects not one, but two people.’
  • ‘I love singing and rapping, preferably out loud when I'm cleaning at home. I'm really bad at singing and rapping. But it's fun. And it's best when you're solo.’
  • ‘That far-fetched dream of someday meeting your celebrity crush and falling in love with them doesn’t have to be explained to anyone.’
  • ‘You put something down in your house, come back three days later, and it's still there, exactly where you left it. Always.’
  • ‘The delight of not always having to discuss (1) how your workday was, (2) how his was, (3) plans for the weekend, (4) plans for next weekend, and (5) who was rude to you on Facebook this week.’
  • ‘No stiff arms or pain in your body from sitting or lying in an uncomfortable position – also known as spooning.’
  • ‘You can watch the most embarrassing movies on Netflix without anyone making fun of you.’
  • ‘You don’t have to worry about your web browser history. Why YouPorn always comes up first instead of YouTube, for example.’ This by the way, are the best porn sites for women, in case you're still searching.
