It's not bad to feel happy about being single. There is freedom in being single, no ties to anyone, no burdens or luggage of other people. No relying on anyone or feeling tied down as if you can't do anything without running it past them. No sharing money, or space or anything together. No risks of getting hurt if you don't love them.
well I'm actually single I can say its lonely at times but I prefer it this way because I wanna focuse on my career and future and also my heath I know its awesome to have someone there for you that you can share your life with but its better being single its less strees
You can love yourself as much as you can, and spend more time with the people who you love. We love you

When I was single, I had all the time to myself and I could save a whole ton of money for myself. In order to be happy about being single, you would need to focus less on being single and more on the present and to be more happier, you would need to LOVE YOURSELF.
Being single is a wonderful opportunity to put yourself first and do things that make you happy. You can see your friends, family and other people without worrying about someone else; you can also pamper yourself by reading, exercising, and enjoying your free time however you want to spend it. Get to know what you love most about yourself before you try and love someone else, or let someone else love you.

Pursue long lost interests. Take up a hobby. Join a gym. Doing exercise is amazing place to start and you will start to realise that you don't have to be in a relationship all the time to be happy.
Love the person you see everyday in the mirror. There is no sadness in being single. Do things you would love to do
You must be happy with where you are at, with your current situation, in order for change to occur.
You're single.. enjoy life, go out, have fun, hang out with your friends.. theres so much to do.. you dont have to be in a relationship to be happy
I think you have to be happy on your own before stepping into any relationships. So, being happy single is a must. And I think it has a lot to do with your purpose in life. Once you find what it is and live your life according to it, I'm sure you will find this feeling of satisfaction and wholeness and you will feel happy.
There are many greta things about being single. For example, you have more time to spend with the people you love and to do the things you love. You also have more time to build yourself to be a better person, which can sometimes be ignored when your in a relationship.
That isn't an easy task and it take some time to find out how being single can benefit you. You can take it as a curve of being with yourself and taking care of your self and people you love, cultivate things hobbies and dreams and when you will find someone you can focus on relationship.
Self love is the best thing in world. Love fades, life dies, relation ends but self don't leave you alone anyday!

Well, you can talk to as many people as you want without someone holding you back, you can openly stare at hot people and you don’t have to be tied down by a relationship x

You need to love yourself they way you are, and not let it bring you down. Just think that "If I was in a relationship right now, I would be doing something else, something I didn't want to do. But I'm single, so I can do whatever I want!"

You can live our life, every moment to the fullest and completely by your choice. You also learn to love yourself and you create a bond with yourself, inside and out.
Being single is a great opportunity to get to know yourself and grow as a person! It also allows you the freedom of doing whatever you want and not having to worry about how another person feels about it. It can be very freeing.
Embrace the love you have for yourself. You can’t pour from any empty cup. You have to love yourself in all that are you alone to be able to love someone else as a couple
There are plenty of things to be happy about when you're single (: There is no reason to be dependent on someone else when you, yourself are an amazing person. The right individual will come eventually. Some of the things you can do are 1. Go pamper yourself. You have your whole life ahead of you! 2. Meet tons of people. When you are in a relationship you can't flirt with that cute guy at the coffee shop you saw the other day! Get out there!
How can you feel happy about being single? You can feel happy by focusing on yourself because this time in your life you get to understand your likes and dislikes and figure out what you want in life.

At first it may seem impossible to juggle being single, but in a way it’s good for you. Spend some time bettering yourself and feeling confident and good again
You should enjoy being single! Because you get more time to work on yourself and you’ll also know that your true love is out there waiting!
Take some time to find yourself. Take that time to pamper yourself and engage in activities you enjoy.
I've struggled with this in my life as well. It's led me to 2 divorces & a trail of broken hearts. The key for me was to be comfortable with myself. As soon as I discovered a me I liked it became much easier to not seek external validation.
Being single is a unique stage in our lives. Whether you're single out of choice or not, it can be difficult when we see all of out friends dating other people. But remember that being single can carve out room for some important self-reflection and self love. For example, try going out one evening by yourself to a dinner and a movie. Seem's weird ? But I promise it'll get you thinking. In this stage of life, I want you to dig deep, and find out who you are and literally date yourself. It's sounds silly but it helps.
Being single is a great thing! You are free to explore and try new things that you have never done before, and just get these new experiences that you would’ve never had. Being single has let me find myself and have more self confidence! And when you finally meet that special someone in your life, you have a lot more to bring to the table in your relationship. So don’t take it as a bad thing, take it as a time where you are free to try new things and just explore, have fun, and just find your true self.
When we’re not in a relationship we really have some time to get clear about what matters to us and what we value.
And that is the time when you can recalibrate and reflect on lessons learned from past relationships. Being single is the perfect time to reassess who you are and where you want to be in life. What changes do you want to make? What classes, associations, or new attitudes would you like to develop? You now have the time and the ability to focus on the one consistent factor that will create the change you’re seeking– yourself and that is pretty important IMO.
You have to learn to love yourself first, and put your happiness before others. In my experience, that’s what it took in order to truly be happy with myself. Love will come when you’re not looking for it, so don’t stress out about it. put yourself first and once you feel happy with yourself, you’ll be amazed with the results. start small, and once you get the hang of it you’ll be happier with your life in general, and will be more than okay with being with yourself. be your own best friend and love yourself before anyone else. you got this.
One word: Freedom. Being single gives so much freedom and seriously lifts some serious weight off of you. Being in a relationship means that you are being tied down. You have to plan dates and other outings. You also have to explain to all your friends any questions they ask about your boyfriend or girlfriend. Being single means that you have WAY more free time. More time to hang out with your friends and family. Let’s also not forget that being single means you can get more action (if that’s what you want of course, me personally wouldn’t) if you know what I mean. That’s pretty much because then you aren’t worrying about cheating too,
