Not having to stress if someone is lying or cheating on you. Peace of mind is fantastic.
Being able to cook what you want, when you want, and if you want...
Not having to limit my options. I'm free to mingle, experiment, have one night stands or just have at it for fun. If variety is the spice of life let yours be a great curry.
Living alone. The freedoms to eat as and when you want, prioritise spending without consulting anyone, pleasing yourself with respect to decor and garden decisions, etc.
Being able to go wherever, whenever you want without having to consider how it will affect you SO. Travelling to really cool places last minute on a whim and moving cities, jobs and homes without having to discuss it with them. Feeling free in general.
I'm a 48f that went basically from family to bf/husband. When we divorced it took me 5 years to be completely over him. A few to be okay with being home alone and now I absolutely love it.
I don't have to answer to anyone. I can do whatever I want whenever I want. There is peace and silence.
I will never marry again and never move in with someone again if I can avoid it.
Going home after work and sitting in silence for hours. I couldn't imagine having to put up with another human after all day of social interactions. Also, I can do whatever I want whenever I want and no one cares.
I don't have to feel responsible for someone, although I do actually like that part of relationships ¯_(ツ)_/¯
You can wear whatever you want - or don’t want - in your house. Of course I can do this because I am no longer married and my child has moved on to adulthood - in her own house. My house is totally mine! So freeing!
Not sharing a bathroom with anyone. It's been years since I was single, btw. But I would sell my Subaru to not have to use a toilet after 3 other people have peed around/under/near/on the side/on the top of it.
I get to sleep on my bed and get as many tattoos as I want!
Here is a quote I read on marriage, that might make you feel better "What matters most is how well you walk through the fire"
Cheers!
You can be as gross as you like and not worry about how you're perceived.
Getting the hell away from that goddamn pain in the a*s!
Literally everything. I do what I want, when I want, how I want. No one judging my decisions. Freedom. Total freedom.
you dont have to share anything. I would want my snacks all to my self
pack up and go when I feel like without having to g a single f about anyone other than myself.
Having all your food for yourself, more freedom in your choices, not worrying about anyone stealing your clothes
having to worry about yourself and your work and the like, not having to worry about an so. sorry, this sounds weird i live with my family lmao
Going off grid completely.
Phone slips under the couch cushions for 5 days? No problem. If I could just drop my phone into the ocean I'd be so happy.
Being able to decorate my home the way I want, drive the kind of car I want. Not having to worry about what I am going to get yelled at for when I get home. Never being told I am too stupid to get things done the right way or on time. Now being woken up at night with a bucket of water because I refuse to argue. Not having to fix the door jams / cabinet doors / front gate / bathroom mirror etc… because she would slam all the doors when she was mad at anything. Not being told you are useless and can’t do anything right. Not being told I wish you would stop taking your meds so you would just die. Not being told you are a horrible parent and going to ruin your kids’ lives when you don’t agree with her. I would say I really just like the quiet, but the house gets too quiet when the kid are not there.
I simply don't have the time to commit to a relationship. I'm glad that I'm not in one right now, because the lack of time I'd have for my romantic partner might hurt them, and I don't want to be the cause of someone's emotional pain.
Not having the anxiety of making sure your partner is happy and not having to worry about the possibility of hurting someone
A few things I find kind of nonsensical, although these would be impossible to be made illegal, since if there are human beings existing there will be jerks and criminals.
1. Sexism and just general nonsense. And plus, women want EQUAL treatment with men, not HIGHER treatment of men. So I disagree with feminists just as the same as thinking-women-are-inferior stupid men, even if I’m biologically female.
But it’s proving impossible since the working society, bluntly, dislikes women. People, it’s just a gender. If you treat a person by their gender and not as an unique human being, you are an a******e and you deserve to have a better education.
2. Racism. Why? Just why? As an Asian student I’ve been getting a lot of downright ridiculous stuff like delusional people saying I don’t get to exist and I should burn in hell. Tempting, but no thanks. I understand it’s YOUR country and stuff, but guess what I’m not doing anything wrong. I’m completely harmless. I’m just a freaking student who would always be the one being picked on.
And people who judge people by skin color, accents and cultural differences to themselves, you STILL deserve a better education.
3. Arrogance and general rudeness, inconsiderate speaking, tactless remarks and stuff. It’s just some stuff everyone dislikes. It’s impossible to ban but still. And also it’s so RUDE to say ‘I didn’t mean it, why are you so sensitive’ to friends/partner. If you’ve been tactless and said rude or hurtful things ONCE it’s okay, everyone makes mistakes. But THAT doesn’t mean a friends’ dignity is to be STOMPED on. I don’t know if I’m the only one who seems to be a toxic friend magnet, but if a loved one ( be it friends, BFFs or family )constantly belittles you, you need to be careful around them and don’t harm yourself further.
This is long. But there’s a freaking reason I nearly got depression.

Pandas, can someone help me? I'm trying to create an "Ask Pandas" but for the life of me can't get it to upload! 😬 I've tried 4 times but the result always gets saved in "my drafts" instead of published. Under the draft it also says "For security reasons post submissions are hidden!", whatever this means...
