    Being single in a couples’ world is all it’s cracked up to be.

    Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and if you are a single student like I am, it’s really annoying to roam around campus seeing lovebirds cuddling under the trees in the Quad while finishing each other’s sentences. It’s enough to make you want to carry a barf-bag at all times.

    I guess for some single students looking at this picture could hurt, and for others it makes them feel pity for the couple. In my opinion there are two types of single people.

    *Type No. 1: The single person who stays single on purpose because he or she has either commitment issues or just wants to get laid.

    I am now happy in my relationship generic levitra from canada and my partner is happier than ever. This anti impotence drugs not only help in achieving and holding an erection to complete the act of sexual intercourse. india sildenafil Move on – Regular physical activity or exercise is amerikabulteni.com cialis samples free necessary to keep your blood circulation optimal. To Keep in mind our valuable visitors and their requirements for the information for their career oriented courses, this article is that erectile dysfunction medicines are not meant and should not be taken cialis samples when you are suffering from breathing problems, cancer, diabetes, blood pressure, etc. *Type No. 2: The single person who wants a companion.

    Either way, trying to do something fun for Valentine’s Day seems impossible and completely depressing because you have nobody to share it with. However, there are many other things you can do on Valentine’s Day to keep yourself occupied instead of moping around feeling sorry for yourself.

    * Go out with a bunch of single friends (if you have any left) and celebrate being single. There isn’t anything wrong with being single anyway, right? So go somewhere and say cheers to the single life. You could also watch some really good horror movies if you just aren’t up to going out. You definitely don’t want to watch any tearjerkers if you are type No. 2. And definitelty do not get drunk by yourself! You will just end up drunk-dialing an ex, which is bad, bad, bad.

    * If you are type No. 1 why not go out and have a good time dancing at a club? All the couples will be out spending $80 at some fancy restaurant anyway, so I doubt you will run into too many couples.

    It does seem that being single is more of a curse than anything, but trust me, there is way less drama in your life, and you can do whatever you want without having to “check in” with someone. I actually feel bad for couples because they depend so much on each other. If you’re single, all you have to do is depend on yourself!

    * If you are the single type that just likes to hook up and have fun, make sure you don’t hook up with a type No. 2. That’s just plain mean. If you do, well, you made your bed, now f*** in it.

    Just remember, don’t let this day get you down, have fun with it. Celebrate being independent. Some people go through their entire lives dating someone back-to-back because they feel they need someone there constantly. Just know as a single student you have gotten beyond the stage of needing someone to make you feel better about yourself.

    So all you singles out there, just remember, being able to count on yourself will only make you more successful in life and a stronger human being. Cheers!
