Why Being Single For Valentine's Day Is Not So Bad!
Hello to you all and I hope your week has been fabulous and slay'ful. Seeing as its February and Valentines Day is round the corner and I really didn't want to miss out on this holiday post! But I will be writing it as a singleton. But I ain't complaining boo boo!!
Now, I'm quite young to be involved with guys and all that commotion but with this kind of generation, being young and in a relationship is not quite out of the ordinary. It would have been ages ago but right now, a lot of people are just finding their bae now! Personally, I take relationships seriously because at the end of the day its my time I'm putting in, It's my commitment that I'm providing and to be honest, young or not, I don't want to be in a relationship just for the sake of being in one. To me that doesn't make any sense. Enjoy life, be young etc, I get that but honestly, I can do all of that without needing someone to hug me or be on FaceTime to.
But to all my single girls who's just not feeling it this valentines, I got some reasons why you'll be just okay!
1. Relationships is not all that it looks like
To me, this goes without saying. To look at two people whether it be in real life or on social media- and to judge their relationship based on ONLY what they want you to see or based on a couple of minutes that you've possibly seen of them doing some PDA, this just a one way route to misconception. Social media to me is just a place where people can create a fairy tale from real life experiences. Yes, they've had good times but that don't mean things are all A-okay. I really recommend you guys to look at it from the bigger picture and not just look at it from the perspective of a photo with a hundred likes and some peck on the cheek. Even if the relationship was to be amazing and perfect - that ain't right! Honestly guys, be happy for those in relationships and focus on yourselves. People who are in certain circumstances are in them for a reason. They have their own life and their own lessons to learn. And so will you! Girl one day yo man will take you out and spoil you with flowers! Until then, work on yourself.
2. No Money? No problem!
This ones a little bit of a joke so don't take it too seriously but on a real level, you don't have to spend money on anybody! All you gotta do is sit down at home, watch some movies, catch up with revision (sorry I had to throw that one in their :'D) or even just go out with your girlfriends. I like to think of Valentines as spending it with the ones you love/appreciate - that doesn't necessarily mean your boyfirend or girlfriend. So reeeeelllllaaaaxxxx !!!
3. Your time will come
Deep down, we would all like someone special to spoil us and do the most because its like 'Damn, you did all this for me?' But at the same time, my favourite quote is that everything happens/doesn't happen for a reason. There is a reason why you're not in a relationship. There is a reason why things didn't work out with your ex. There is a reason why you are alone. Use this time wisely.
I never understood what people meant when they said that its important to be on your own so that in a relationship you can be better, well, something along those lines. But it dawned on me that when I was 'talking' to somebody that it is sooooo important to be happy and fulfilled on your own. So if ever a relationship was to end, you will have be content with yourself. A relationship should be a plus, not your whole life. That's where a lot of us mess up with guys/girls. We rely too much on them that we forget to rely on ourselves. A guy/girl can one day up and leave you - you cannot do that to yourself, you know what I mean? Use this time to perfect yourself and to glo'! In a relationship, you have to commit to the other person as well as yourself - being single, girl, you are your own team - so enjoy it whilst it last! You will never know who is round the corner *wink wink*.
Thanks for reading my lovelies! I hope that you shall be amazing when the big day comes and just know that there's many things to do on that day! If it gets too much- lose ya phone for the day and just do whatever that makes you happy! I was feeling a bit somehow because there was a tiny, VERY TINY possibility that I could have had someone to celebrate it with but oh wells! I'm young and I've got life waiting for me, and so do you beautiful!
