I Choose To Stay Single Until I Want
Romantic relationship is one of the best and meaningful feeling in this world. The ability to develop a strong bond, connection, trust and loyalty with someone is such a desirable thing. It makes our life colorful and worth living. Having someone who constantly and genuinely care for you or someone who will never get tired listening to all your dramas and frustrations in life is a blessing. Finding a partner whom you can share the rest of your life is such a beautiful destiny.
At my age now, it is the time where young people like me are having their boyfriend and girlfriend for the first time. There is a peer pressure for other people especially to those who are in their 30s, who still haven't gotten any partner. I also feel that the people at my surroundings are rushing to find their future love ones which then I see as a bad notion. Going with the hype of looking for someone to commit is something that often terrifies me.
I want to chose the better person
I am not looking for the best because no one is perfect and we can't be the best all time, so looking for a better person is the right word. Before that, I want to make sure that I am also the better person for that person. It scares me the most how people enter relationship without knowing who that person they are unofficially dating. This gives me goosebumps because this often lead to regrets. I want to chose the better person for me because I don't want to settle for someone who will only be a toxic in my life.
I am not ready and never ready
This sounds funny but it's true. I don't think I will ever be ready to enter a relationship knowing that it is full of ups and down. You have to stick through the good times and the bad times. You have to devote your time to someone. I do not think I am ready for that, I don't want to enter the wrong door where I cannot find the way to exit anymore. This is how I see the world of committed relationships and it's not similar to the movies I've watched.
I want to focus on my passions and dreams
Instead of choosing for someone better to be a part of my life, I just want to focus on my dreams and passions. I want to invest my time learning about my passions and reaching my dreams in life. Relationship is a trial and error process but our passions and dreams will never be. Even if you didn't fully accomplish dreams but the moment you strive hard to reach it is already a success in life. Especially passions, this what makes our life valuable.
I want to enjoy my life being single
This is my biggest fact. I want to remain single because I want to enjoy life. I do not like when I have attachments. I like to be free to do whatever I want and I want to make the best out of this life. In short, I want to be the person who doesn't need a partner to make my life valuable or important. I am simply living because I am living my own life. There's so many things in life that I want to discover and explore.
It feels so wonderful having someone near you. Someone who will cheer you up when you are at your weakest. Someone who will see the best in you even you're at your worst. For me, I do not need to find someone to make me feel those things because I believe we can also receive those things from the important people in our lives. I chose to stay single because I am not rushing for a love, I know if someone is destined for me the time can tell. For now, I want to enjoy my life being single and do something that makes me feel alive everyday.

Perceptive and well written ! There are times when being single can feel lonely but it is better than being in a relationship where you feel alone,
