Romance movies often force us to believe that living alone is a terrible crime against humanity. Everyone is familiar with these scenes: you are watching a tearful melodrama, seizing sadness with chocolate, all your friends have been engaged for a long time and do not miss the opportunity to show off their rings to you (sometimes you just want to block the entire feed in VK!), You can no longer tolerate the worried looks of your grandma when you show up for the next family celebration without a constant boyfriend, and we won't even mention the supposedly happy couples from the pages of fashion magazines.
But we rarely think about the indisputable advantages of a bachelor lifestyle. For all convinced loners reading this article, there is a wonderful list of the benefits of such a lifestyle. It's time to enjoy some free time from dating!
You are in your best physical form.
When our relationship gets a “long” label, we automatically begin to consider them “comfortable”. After all, now you can relax and not necessarily follow the figure so closely. Researchers claim that 62% of respondents gained extra weight immediately after entering into a “serious” relationship. Apparently, the long gatherings at the fireplace or on the bank of the river left their mark. At the same time, you, independent and unmarried, dance incendiary dances in the club, trying to lure the new guy into his network. What is more attractive?
You have a big circle of friends
Everyone has a girlfriend who threw a friendship for the sake of her lover. Annoying, right? But what if we say that being “alone and without an anchor” is not so bad? It's no secret how difficult it is for couples to find new friends. Now their soul requires only those who are also in a serious relationship.
Couples communicate less with friends and neighbors, and less often visit their families - they are too busy building their own hearth. Studies show that both boys and girls have a bigger social circle while they enjoy a bachelor life. Our advice - do not miss the next bachelorette party at the karaoke bar! Without a couple in a big city - that's cool!
You drink less alcohol
Do you think all your martinis and cosmopolitan cocktails in bars are a lot of booze? Research proves the opposite: People in long-term relationships drink more alcohol than those who are already divorced.
You have more sex!
Long relationships do not always guarantee good intimate relationships. People out of a long relationship work harder on harmony in bed! According to Match.com *, unmarried girls are more open to heart-to-heart talk when it comes to sex. 20% of married women admitted that they would never admit to a partner if they were not satisfied with their sex life. It's time to start expressing your discontent in bed!

You have more chances to get a new job (and less chances for disturbing working days)
If you are in search of a new job, then it is likely that your CV will be the winner in the pursuit of a new position. Believe us, there are plenty of competitors in the labor market, but companies tend to hire unmarried families more often.
During the economic crisis, 90% “free and lonely” employees later got their jobs back! Of these, only 22% of those who were already married at that time were able to return to their previous jobs. If you have already received your warm place under the career sun, then, most likely, you will not work hard.
People with children tend to settle for a longer working day, a myriad of meetings, and even an office that is located far from home. After all, they have kids who need to provide! Only 26% unmarried are willing to work overtime for a career ladder.
You can sleep longer and bask in the crib
It is still unknown what is better: to sleep with a partner in the same bed or in different rooms. But one scientists have established precisely - a dream in solitude has a large number of advantages. Polling organization Better sleep council showed that every fourth American in a relationship prefers to sleep separately. Yes Yes. No snoring, fighting for a blanket, walking at night and other “delights” of family life. Only you and your sweet dreams about Ryan Gosling.
You are less worried about money.
Yes, two wallets - more money. But while the income of unmarried people eats mainly taxes, couples have much more financial expenses. Just think: all these dates in expensive restaurants, honeymoon and annual celebrations of the anniversary, not to mention the wedding itself - flowers, bridal dress, room rental ... thousands and thousands of dollars fly away in one day.
Finances are usually the biggest cause of family quarrels. When you are free, your wallet can breathe easy. Yes, dear, go buy yourself those designer stilettos shoes.
Of course, getting married and having a family is great. But be prepared for a dramatic change. Remember that you have time to think and prepare for them. While you are still going through the school of life, and quickly changing everything is not at all necessary. Learn to appreciate your independent thinking and the consequences of your own decisions, try to understand yourself and improve yourself as a person. In the future, this will help you become an even better mom and wife.
