Even in a healthy relationship, after a certain amount of time (especially if you are young) it becomes difficult to know who you are. Most girls don't find Mr right when they're in high school or even college for that matter. There are things that you learn about yourself while being single that you couldn't learn even in the healthiest of relationships. Being single and doing it all on your own toughens you up. And so what if many of the same type of article have been published on this site? Clearly, this shows that it's an important subject. There's nothing wrong with being in a long term relationship while young, but there's also nothing wrong with being single and loving it. All the power to you, whether you're in a relationship or not.

Being happy with or without.

Great article, Emmy. Glad to see another Loyola girl on here!

Other articles have not affected me as much as this one. The connection is different for all of us ladies. To read one that is pin-pointing exactly what is going on in my life is so refreshing. Let's welcome the articles that are so-called "similar" because it might not affect some of you personally, but it does affect some people, like me.

So kudos to you Miss Emmy! Congratulations on your new single life! Live it up and know that some of us are in the same boat sister, and obviously we're entirely LOVING our new-found freedom! Thanks for stating what's on some of our minds!

Meet a fantastic/gorgeous girl, we were all about each other, tried to take it slow, hung out more and more then, boom! 'lets pull back a little.' Found out she had gotten out of a bad relationship. It all make sense, but sucks to be me!

It's not that you can't do that stuff while you're attached. But the point is more that for the first time, you're doing it on your own, and that can feel at once really terrifying and really liberating. I'm going through a really tough break up having lived with my significant other and dated him for over 2 years. It wasn't always a bad relationship, but it became one that wasn't healthy for me. No one is hating on those who are happy and attached, it's merely saying that being on your own can be pretty darn great too. And that's a sentiment I can relate to. Sure, having a man(or lady) can be super and swell and all those good things, but so can being single. That's all.
