Is it just me or are there couples popping up EVERYWHERE! It seems like I can’t even walk down the hallway without bumping into someone showing a little too much PDA. Maybe to the couples this isn’t a big deal but to the single people it’s a bit much, not the PDA- although that can be a bit much too- but the fact that everywhere you go, there’s a constant reminder that, “Oh yeah, I’m single.” Seeing all these couples, you can’t help but stop and think “Man, what’s wrong with me? How can they have a boyfriend or girlfriend but I can’t”? The answer…NOTHING! Just because you’re single doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you. I get so tired of hearing people say “Oh man I need a girlfriend/boyfriend as if somehow this will make things magically better. Just because you’re single it doesn’t obligate you to have any less fun than couples. You can have an amazing time with your friends and the best part is that there’s no “significant other” holding you back. So ladies, just because Mr. Rock-Hard-Abs-Perfect-Smile-Football-Star-Everything-You’ve-Ever-Wanted isn’t looking your way doesn’t mean you aren’t beautiful. Be happy with yourself and everything else will fall into place. And guys, just because Ms. Perfect-Body-Cheer-Leading-Captain-Everything You’ve-Ever-Dreamed-About isn’t eye-ing you doesn’t mean you aren’t worth eye-ing. Be confident in yourself and, in time, the right person will come along. So to all me single people, be patient and enjoy the time you have for yourself. Keep your head high and never let anyone feel like you’re worth less that what you are.
