What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain.

I do not appreciate being asked the question “Why are you still single?”

This is a personal matter and my relationship status does not define my happiness or worth.

Being single is a valid choice and I am content with where I am in life.  It allows me the freedom to live life on my own terms and create a fulfilling and enriching experience for myself.

1. I value my independence being single allows me the freedom and flexibility to make decisions without having to consider a partner’s preferences or opinions for example I recently decided to pursue a spontaneous weekend trip without having to consult anyone else and it was liberating to have the ability to do so on my own terms.

2. I have time to focus on myself without the distractions of a relationship I am able to prioritize self-care and personal growth this includes dedicating time to hobbies interests and goals that are important to me for instance I have been able to devote more time to my passion for photography and have seen significant improvement in my skills as a result.

3. I have experienced toxic relationships in the past I have been in relationships that were emotionally draining and detrimental to my well-being being single allows me to step back and reflect on those experiences learning from them and avoiding similar patterns in the future by prioritizing my own mental and emotional health I am able to create a more positive and fulfilling environment for myself.

Your mental health is more important than your career, money, other people’s opinions that event you said you would attend, your partner’s mood and your families wishes combined. If taking care of yourself means letting someone down, then let someone down.

4. I am waiting for the right connection while finding a genuine and meaningful connection which may be rare I believe in holding out for that special bond by staying single until I genuinely connect with someone who aligns with my values and goals. I am able to be more discerning in my relationships and avoid settling for less than I deserve.

You know, in today’s world, cheating is on the rise because of how simple it is to communicate using technology. People are taking advantage of this convenience to have affairs and lie, which is causing more divorces. It’s sad to hear about husbands/wife cheating while claiming to be in love, creating toxic situations in marriages. That’s why I believe staying single until finding a genuine connection is better. In the meantime, I focus on enjoying myself and growing personally for a more meaningful and happy life.

I want to live simply.
I want to sit by the window when it rains and read books I’ll never be tested on. I want to paint because I enjoy it, not because I have something to prove. I want to fall asleep when the moon is high and wake up slowly, with no place to rush off to. I want not to be controlled by money or clocks or any other artificial inventions of humanity. I just want to be boundless and infinite.
