Being single definitely has its highs and lows. But there's no doubt that flying solo is sometimes way better than dating. This may be one of the only times in your life when you can do whatever you want and when you want it.

When you get into bed, you can lie starfish-style! Stay out late and sleep in as long as you like - who’s judging? Buy the expensive bag or the overpriced shoes you love. Appreciate being young and free!

I illustrated 15 things that every single girl can relate to.

My boyfriend is like the square root of -100. A perfect ten but imaginary ;)

Wow, talk about a stereotype. Not every single 'girl' in the world is just waiting for Mister Right. Many of us enjoy our freedoms much more than we enjoy being beholden to someone else. And by the way, we're women, not girls.

Thank goodness some of us single gals out there have a sense of humour!

Calm your pants ladies - I think you're taking these illustrations way too serious. They're meant to be funny not giving you the image that having a boyfriend is the life goal. Sure, being single is great but sometimes I really do question myself who I am shaving for :D

EXACTLY what I thought! I enjoyed a lot of things of being single, but many times I thought just like the drawings :P

Give it a rest Heather- this is a cute imaginative set of cartoons. One person expressing what it's like for them in their life. Quit being a bully.

I think there a lot of women who can find a lot of these pictures very relatable. Mostly except for feminists. No offense.

Why do I have the feeling tnat the introduction text has NOTHING to do with the illustrations? Drawings are nice, but I find them too stereotypical...

You're right. The intro text is much better and doesn't relate to the cartoons at all.

Never mind the stereotype or whether its girl or woman, the deeper meaning is that all humans long for a deeper relationship with some partner, whoever that may be, or whatever gender that may be. Alone forever? Not good. And I do not mean friends, other family, etc., I mean deeeeeep love. Of course one has to begin with oneself, but to get to higher level one must step outside our "oneness".... imho

These slides are just depressing and put being single in a bad light and being a single girl is portrayed as something desperate, none-functioning.

Dear Future partner, I hope you like cleaning. I'll cook you basically anything.

I'm a big foodie and my mamma told me to marry a chef. I said I'd rather marry someone, who'd hire a chef ;)

I cannot cook to save my life but my fiancé is an amazing cook so it all works out..... But when I was single I never sat around hoping I would find a man who could cook for me....

Love the pictures, they're very creative. However it is rather degrading to women because heck yeah, not ALL women are in need of men, like the Duchess in The Aristocats, i f you know what I mean. In fact, some women love freedom, and hate most feminine related stuff, like me! Aw yeah!

The majority of girls would not know what to do if they got a boyfriend, they tend to treat men like pets or objects, if it slightly upsets you get rid of it, then wonder why you are single again.

This was all about boyfriends, cats , and food. Very stereotypical. Being single isn't bad and not every girl wants a boyfriend.

The entire thing sounds sexist in so many ways. However I believe it wasn't the artist's intention though. There are thousands of #ForeverAlone memes over the Internet, mostly poking fun at guys :P I just these can be seen as just a complement to those ^^ Don't get mad :p

Aaaaaaand mine actually is! I always wanted one that was a good cook and knew his way around math problems (for when we have children), and I actually found one... Not perfect in many other things, but I didn't ask for other things... ;)

This is something I have said to my friends when we have talked about what kind of boyfriends/husbands we are hoping to find :D I can feed myself, but I'm not that good of a cook!

Can't believe how uptight some folks are. These are meant to be funny people! There are more serious things to get your 'happily single' knickers in a twist about.
