I’m in high school so I feel like this prompt is too early to write about.
Nevertheless, I’m single and happy.
Because in high school, you find that looking at boys takes too much of your time, when you could be with your friends, chilling out, and messing around.
In high school, dating is overrated.
Seriously. It is.
I’d rather be working on projects of mine, trying to find friends that will last, and trying to get into college.
And I think I am much happier without having to date. Because as a person who overthinks almost everything, I would have too much on my plate and possibly die from a heart attack at age fifteen (due to the stress).
Besides, being single doesn’t mean that there’s something wrong with you. It just means that you haven’t found the one yet. I believe that there is that one person who is destined for you, just waiting for you to meet them.
It just takes time. And you’re better off working on carving your future out rather than looking at potential significant others.
Having a boyfriend/girlfriend is so blown up in our society when, in reality, we should be happy with ourselves first.
According to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, we have to feel safe and secure in our own bodies before we can develop intimate relationships with friends and more-than-friends.
I don’t know about you, but I’d rather feel happy about myself, rather than rely others to make me happy.
That doesn’t mean I want to date in the future.
But, as of now, I’m single and happy.
Lots of love,
Jess
