Single Life

In class the other day we talked about the many different sterotypes that single people face like loneliness. I personally know a lady who has been single all of her life and she loves it! There is a huge difference about how people percieve being single. Some think of it as the worst thing that could possibly happen in your life and some look at it like a great opportunity. In my family, there has not been anyone that has not married. For me its hard to look at the rest of my life being single because I really havent experienced it any other way. I did like talking about the advantages of being single, because currently thats where I stand. In high school I was in a two year relationship, and didn't really enjoy it. I do feel like I can develop a good sense of myself and learn more about myself by being single. And by knowing that there arent only disadvantages to being single, I can feel more confident about myself.
