6 Little Signs You’re Happier Single Than in a Relationship

Girl, let’s be real for a second. Everyone and their cat seems to be obsessed with relationships. “Find your soulmate!” “Get a boyfriend!” “Love is everything!” Blah, blah, blah. But what if plot twist you actually thrive being single?

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re secretly living your best life solo, here are six little signs that prove you’re happier single than tangled up in relationship drama.

1. You Feel Lighter Than a Feather (And No, It’s Not Because of Yoga)

Remember that heavy, anxious feeling when you’re waiting for a text back? Yeah, you don’t have that. Instead, you feel free, no constant overthinking, no wondering if you said something wrong, no decoding his five-word replies. If your mental space is as clear as your Google search history (okay, maybe not that clear), that’s a major win.

2. Your Playlist is Full of Power Anthems, Not Cry-Yourself-to-Sleep Songs

Instead of sobbing to Taylor Swift’s heartbreak ballads, you’re screaming Lizzo lyrics into a hairbrush. Your energy is all about self-love and slaying, and you don’t need a sad love story to mess with your vibe.

3. You’re More Focused on Your Goals Than His Weekend Plans

You have dreams, goals, and a vision board that’s basically your future flex. Instead of getting caught up in relationship drama, you’re out here chasing your ambitions like the queen you are. School, hobbies, career, self-improvement, they all get prime attention, and nothing is slowing you down.

4. The Thought of “Date Night” Makes You Want to Stay in Pajamas

While your friends are stressing over what to wear and whether their crush likes pineapple on pizza (a major debate, btw), you’re wrapped in a blanket binge-watching your favorite show. The idea of getting dolled up for an awkward dinner date? No thanks, your couch and comfort food are calling.

5. You Actually Like Having the Whole Bed to Yourself

Sharing a bed sounds cute until you realize how much space guys take up. Kicking someone every time you turn over? Dealing with snoring? Absolutely not. Your bed is your kingdom, and you’re living like a queen with zero interruptions.

6. Your Happiness Isn’t Dependent on Someone Else’s Texts

No waiting, no worrying, no emotional rollercoasters. You’re not checking your phone every two seconds, overanalyzing emojis, or crying over someone leaving you on read. Instead, you’re out there living and letting your happiness come from you.

So, Are You Happier Single?

If you just nodded aggressively to most (or all) of these, guess what? You’re thriving on your own! And that’s not just okay, it’s AMAZING.
