Are you single? Do you enjoy life being single? If you have not yet found your happiness with it then you must follow these simple steps by WikiHow.

Pay no attention to naysayers. In a society, you're bound to come across people who wonder why you're single, as if the main goal in life is to have a partner and stick to that ideal as if your life depends on it. They might even say that something is "wrong" with you if you're single. Brace yourself for that kind of ignorance. Remember that you don't have to defend your right for being single. Simply say "I prefer being single."

Concentrate on friendship. Being single doesn't have to mean being lonely. When you're single, you have more time to do a lot of things, all of which are opportunities to make new friendships. Even if you're an introvert, this can be an excellent time to develop your extroverted side. Make it a priority in your life to create meaningful friendships and enrich your existing ones.

Relish your freedom. The chance of pairing up with someone who shares a fantasy with equal passion is not something to hold your breath for. So what are you waiting for? Find some people who have the same idea, or just go for it alone, and you'll meet like-minded people along the way.

Appreciate the absence of compromise.  Perhaps, if you've been in a relationship before, you will realize how much stuff you had to give up to make the relationship work. If you're a slob, isn't it great to be able to leave your stuff laying around, without anybody minding? And isn't it wonderful to be able to organize everything, and find it the way you left it? Isn't it nice to be able to cook and eat and enjoy foods that a partner might be averse to? A relationship can add many good things to your life, but it also adds some rigor, so take the time to appreciate your current flexibility.

Being married is a "lifestyle choice" and not a "requirement." Therefore, being single is a "lifestyle choice" and not a "default option." It is possible to CHOOSE to be single. There are benefits to being single just as there are disadvantages to being married and vice-versa. Whether one is married or single is nothing more than a lifestyle choice.
