7. You’ve Given up

8. All Netflix, No Chill

14. No Shaving!

15. Men’s Shirts

19. Your Ex is Engaged

Yeah because a woman isn't complete unless she has a man by her side. Lol this list is terrible. Women are allowed to be single and shouldn't be criticized for it

For the record, I'm not single by choice. I thought I met the man of my dreams too after waiting. Having enough of the hurt and pain does not make me "bitter" thank you very much. I have realized what does make me happy which is the most important. Ever met a married unhappy person? I know quite a few actually. Do I wish I could be with someone again? Yes. Do I want to do all that work only to have my heart broken again? I believe what's meant to be is meant to be. I am not bitter, I do care for my ex and I still miss him. I guess I think too highly of myself to always have to be with someone to make me happy.

"Lazy ass"??? Really??? Who wrote this thinking it's not okay for a woman to be independent, single, and HAPPY with that? Shame on the author. She clearly doesn't have that kind of wisdom yet. :)

The previous comments though, as if I knew someone was going to say that. I am also single but there's nothing wrong in finding love. You guys seriously need to relax. And it's funny how the author stated the whole "bitterness" thing, guess she wasn't wrong (👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 comments) LOL!

Wow, I sure hope this writer never ends up with a broken heart one too many times. Obviously doesn't know that there are reasons people are single. Interesting how my married friends, although they are happy, I get reminded often that I am lucky to be independent.

Same I thought my middle school crush was the one but I was wrong I just have to wait for the right guy

I like being single tbh
