Being single is not a bad thing Collected
Being single is seen by some as a state of
loneliness. Because of how lonely it can be, many people stay stuck in loveless
and unhappy relationships, they do not want to feel that emptiness that comes
with being single.
You do not need to feel like you are drowning, or
like the entire world is resting completely on your shoulders. Being single is
not a bad thing. You have to start seeing singlehood as something other than
the absence of a partner and start seeing it as a phase of personal rediscovery
and self-love.
Yes, having a partner makes life beautiful, but
being single does not make life any less beautiful, if anything it brings a
sense of peace that you may not get from being in a relationship. At some point
in your life, it is easy to be stuck wondering how to be happy single and live
your best life. However, the first thing you need to understand is that you are
completely in charge of your own happiness.
Putting the responsibility of your happiness on
someone other than yourself is both selfish and a tad disturbing. Selfish
because that is way too much burden to place on someone. When someone comes
into your life, it should be that they are adding to pre-existing happiness,
not bringing happiness to an unhappy life.
When you place that burden on someone, you are
inadvertently making it difficult for them to do things that make them happy,
which may make you unhappy. This means that if at some point in their life,
they decide that the relationship is no longer working, and they want to move
on, they can’t. They have to worry about you relapsing into a large hole of
sadness. That is a very selfish thing to do.
It is disturbing because you are a living breathing
human who should be able to be in charge of your life. Releasing the reins of
your life, something as important as your happiness to someone else for
whatever reason is not a good move. You should be able to handle things as
important as your emotions without completely giving up that aspect of your
life to someone else. Babies do not even depend on their parents for happiness,
and they are unconscious of things.
They find happiness in silly things like sprouting
grass, a dot on a carpet, an animal painted on a wall, and the funny movement
in the ‘Baby shark’ video. Now, as an adult where you are completely in charge
of your life and decisions, consciously making decisions, it is disturbing that
you will give up control of your happiness.
