I have been single for a long time and I can tell  you the advantages of being single  and when I got married I was able to compare it. Yes, being single has lots of advantages. Here are my top 10 reasons to savor a single life.

1. You have the right to your own decision- You don't have to consult a partner whether you do this or  that because you are single and no body will question you why you want this and that. I like it when I can have my own decision. I don't have to wait for for any body's  approval  if I can do this or that. This is the beauty of being single. You can make your own decision without consulting anybody for approval.  Nobody will blame you, no one will argue  when things won't work as it is to be.

2. Your time is yours to decide what to do with it. You can go anywhere anytime without thinking that somebody wants your presence at certain time at home. You can go easy go lucky without being concerned of the time you will be spending outside home with friends.  In whatever things you want to do, your time is not limited.  compared to when you are married, you have so many things to consider regarding your time. But when you are single, you spend your time anyway you want. This means, all your time is yours to decide of what you are going to do with it..

3. Manage your own income. It is nice to manage your own income without thinking of other expenses at home. When you have a partner or maybe kids. It makes a big difference on  budgeting   than   when you are single. When you are single you can buy anything you want but when you are married, you have priorities more than your own needs. So, being single is easier to handle your  finances and easy to budget your own income.

4. Friends are not limited when you are single, You can have lots of friends as you like but when you are married you must limit it because you have to spend more time with your own family, you partner, you kids, etc. Some partners demand your time. They want you to be home. It would be a big argument if you will spend time with friends. You have no more tie to hang around with friends if your partner would not want you too. I still love single life because you are free to have friends and hang around with them. You can enjoy in their company.

5. You can have Vacation to some beautiful places you want to go without considering too much expenses because you are single and no kids or husband/wife to think
