NO PRESSURE:SINGLEHOOD

Over the past years,relationships have become overrated.There's this obsession with knowing who's in a relationship and in being one.But I do not understand why.I, who knows what it's like be single and having friends who are single,makes me want to exalt singlehood as opposed to relationships.

Singlehood is one of the happiest times of one's life-not to say being in a relationship isn't.Being single means you are not accountable to anyone and you do not need to check upon this other person.You are able to make quick decisons,without having to consider the next person.You get to do what you want with your time without the fear that your partner would feel neglected.

Financially,you spend less.Not having airtime/data bundles does not matter much.And you are able to join many interesting things:like missionaries and other societies at church because you have so much time.Also,you don't feel accountable for someone's happiness-although we are not really acountable but being in a relationship means you determine the person's well-being.E.g someone might be moody because her bf promised to do something and he didn't.

1 Corinthians 7 gives the most crucial point:You can focus on your spiritual life and nothing else.You don't have any distractions!

All in all,you are not missing out.And I personally believe love should find you when you least expect it.When you have the obsession of being in a relationship,you are likely to miss on an opportunity to develop and to know yourself more.I could go and on and on.Just enjoy it and enjoy your walk with God.
