It sometimes feels pretty rough when you’re without a significant other. This day in age, it feels as though more and more people are splitting up and being left as a single. My single days may have been a while ago, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t relate. Being on your own is hard, especially when you’re ready to make the leap. At the same time, it can be freeing to be single. Some ladies love their independence, and that’s cool too. You get to be around your friends more often and you you’re your chance to try new things on your own. Below are some famous quotes on what it’s like to be single.
