1. Self Reliance

You only have to rely on yourself, because this is your life, not anyone else's.

2. No Vulnerability

You don't have to let anyone over the walls that you have built around yourself. There is no trust given, which eliminates getting hurt.

3. The Real Foundation of Your Life

When sh*t hits the fan, you can run to yourself. When the world is falling apart, you don't have to wait for someone who will never actually be able to fully understand or help you.

4. No Longer Constantly Getting Upset Over a Person

When they ignore you for days or don't have time for you anymore it won't matter because it doesn't happen when you're single.

5. No Worrying About Another Person

Just focus on your own life. There is so much stress in life, it is pointless to keep track of another person's life too.

6. Independence

You can do what you want when you want based on your own wants and needs. No asking if you can go out and see your friends, or interrogation about who you were with, what you were doing.

7. Money

All those hours you work? Every paycheck is either put right into the savings account or spent on yourself. You don't have to wait to be spoiled because you get to spoil yourself!

8. No Sharing Space

The entire bed is now yours. The entire blanket, all the pillows, and all the space. The bathroom isn't disgusting, there aren't socks laying around everywhere. Less laundry and dishes, and less food to buy.

9. Free time

Regaining a passion for the hobbies you lost track of during a relationship. How about being able to go to your favorite restaurant again now that you always get to choose what is for dinner. Plus, rediscover your favorite food that they hated.

10. Commitment

Commitment to yourself and your life. Making choices based on what you want and need versus sacrificing much of yourself for another person.
