‘Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you’re pretty sexy and your taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with’

Carrie Bradshaw 

‘It’s better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone – so far’

Marilyn Monroe

 We all know couples who have settled for each other because they were bored of dating or scared of being alone, but clearly very unhappy. Argue constantly, controlled by their partner, dwindling sex life and a lost personality.

Watching it from the outside, you only feel pity for them. They can’t find the strength to put themselves first or find the courage to be single. They may get married, they may have children, they may stay together forever. But note, they will never be truly happy.

It may feel right at the beginning and somewhere, along the way, you get lost. We all know deep down, when something, a feeling, isn’t right anymore. In the search for true love and happiness, have courage, have respect and be true to yourself.

‘I’m looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love.’

Carrie Bradshaw
