4 Reasons to Stay Single

By Laura Snyder

These days we feel less social pressure to marry, can get laid without walking down the aisle, and aren't seen as crazy for staying single longer.

Which is exactly why we think you should hang on to that single status while you can.

Need more convincing?

Single Celebration #1: Time Is On Your Side

Thanks to the evolution of the modern relationship, there's less pressure to marry young or marry for convenience or financial reasons. So you can afford to wait for Mr. or Ms. Right. By staying happily single, you can take the time to wander around the dating field, picking and choosing who you want to play with, instead of going on a frustratingly single-minded search for The One.

Single Celebration #2: More Opportunities.

Let's fact it: single people have more options and opportunities offered to them just because they're less tied down than committed couples. You can get away with spontaneous adventures, try new things and go new places more easily. Partying 'til dawn is a lot easier on your own!

Single Celebration #3: You Can Focus on the Financials

Okay, maybe it's not a sexy reason, but when you're single it is easier to build up a great career without the drain of a serious relationship on your life. You can move across the country for that great job, work long nights if you need to, and take business trips to exotic locales without a second thought. Plus, think of all the money you're saving by not having to think about engagement rings, mortgages and a college education for a kid.

Single Celebration #4: You Never Have to Compromise.

Rather sleep in that have brunch with your family? Do it. Want to have Cheetos and ice cream for dinner - again? Go for it. Rather watch The O.C. than the NBA? Fine. Single, you can go wherever you want whenever you want, do what you want anytime. And no one will tell you not to. It's 24/7 self-indulgence without guilt! Why would you want to give that up?
