Whether you are newly single or a loud and proud singleton this post is dedicated to you. I am sorry but I am more than happy to declare that these things are far superior to having a boyfriend. Hands up who’s with me?



  1. Fake Tanning - Go on admit it; you’ve sacrificed that golden glow for a night of naughty. No straight guy likes the smell or idea of getting into bed with a chimney sweep. Besides no one wants a repeat of 2013’s between the legs tan streaks.
  2. Hobbies - Admittedly I am a bit of a gym addict, and often resented spending the whole weekend with my ex as it meant three whole days away from the gym (he refused to work out with me which is stupid as I was close to lifting as much as him anyway). This might not be a big deal for the average single girl but think about how much time you have for your hobbies now. LOOOAADS. Love it!!!!
  3. Shaving for Self-fulfilment (and not knowing who will bare-witness to such things..ooo cheeky) - Shaving ones legs “just because” is so gratifying. None of that “he’s coming round tonight but I’m already late for work” dilemmas.
  4. SHOPPING - “But you have two pink tops already” Yes but I need a third, what if they are both in the wash and its Wednesday hmm?” No more being judged on how much you spend on clothes, make up, handbags *covers face in shame* #sorrynotsorry.
  5. Social Freedom - Freedom to book and plan holidays and events without checking the joint calendar for you and your partner. No one to answer to. Also, holiday antics…the less said the better? ;)
  6. Wine - AKA” I hate men club”- I would like to highlight that this is not a literal club, neither is it something only single girls do. There is no denying that a good section of girly catch up time is spent slagging of boyfriends, partners, and other men in a girl’s life. When single this is all the more fun as there is a slight venomous tinge allowing one to really “let go” as it were, which is just so satisfying.
  7. BoyFRIEND Bonding - Getting to hang out with your guy mates without feeling and sense of guilt. Even if you’re lucky and your partner is “totally cool” with you spending time with your guy mates, and you know for a fact that nothing is/was/will be between the two of you, girls always feel an essence of guilt or sense of wondering as to what extent the bf is actually ok with it. But not the single girl. She has no one to answer to. Winning!!!!
  8. Matching Underwear - Wearing matching underwear without anyone knowing is so empowering and sexy. AND if anyone is lucky enough to find out...BONUS!!!!
  9. Becoming Closer to Friends - I am not sure if this is just me but I feel a little more myself recently and I find that I am the outgoing confident person I was a while back (possibly pre-bf but I cannot deny or confirm this) I seem to have more time for friends and not only that when I am with friends they have my full attention. Consequently, people seem to be more inclined to open up to me. The recent insight I have had into people’s lives is eye opening and has made me realise a few things about life as a whole.
  10. Hot Pants - I was always very aware that I had a bf and probably shouldn’t wear ridiculously short shorts or that super low cut top. But why? I am not flaunting my body in order to seek attention. I was not going to go home with the first guy that looked my way on girl’s nights, mainly because its girl’s night and we all know the rules on girl’s night ;). So why did I ditch the hot pants and wear the midi dress when my bum and legs are my best asset #shesquats (not being big headed it just fitted and sounded funny. Now I feel awkward and a lot of pressure to improve my bum in case I meet any of you).
