Being single doesn’t mean that you know nothing about love.
Having a label or not will not define who you are and what's your say about love and relationship. Even if you are single you can still feel, define and have a deep thorough explanation about love.
I've read Ma'am @Eylz2021 article about being single and I dared myself to answer some because why not right? I'm a single mother for quite a while now. Another get to know me would never hurt because I guess I'm like Kris Aquino whose life is an open book as per her.
She provided a link with the questions here's the link .
Who are you dating these days?
I'm not dating these days, it's pandemic so I barely go out from the confinement of work and home. And it's really not suitable to date in this situation I guess. Well for me it's quite uncomfortable. No offense to those who already had their partners.
How come you’re not dating anyone?
I don't have much time too though. I might be troublesome in a relationship because of my schedule at work and at home.
How could a woman like you still be single?
It's my choice. Having a relationship is not a competition. You can choose when to date or not. Most people, singles to be exact, prefer to value themselves first before others. They want to enjoy life alone and not worrying about other people's business.
Are you opening yourself up to love?
I'm not closing any doors of possibility about love. Like I said it's a choice. But if someone will come then I'm not saying I'll grab the opportunity maybe just getting to know each other will do and the rest will
Is it because you’re not over your ex?
Partly yes. I moved on though but there's still something in me that kinda misses him at nights or when I'm alone and spacing out..lol!
Is it because you’re always working? Maybe you should date someone from work.
Probably yes. I spent most of my time at work and I barely sleep mostly because work is keeping me late most of the time and when I have days off work I spent them with my son. Most of my co-workers are married. I didn't apply to be a third party though. Never.
Do you ever get lonely?
I do mostly. The reason I've been a slave with work is that I don't want to be consumed by loneliness especially if I'm alone in the office after working hours. I tend to think negative thoughts whenever I don't have much to do so I push myself to work non-stop until my body gives up tiredness and puts it to sleep. It's hard but I'm managing it until this time.
What do you do on weekends?
Bond with my family especially my son. I don't have much time at home than work so I spend most of my free time with them.
So how long have you been single?
My son just turned five last month so I've been single for five years now ..lol! And I just realized it now that's it's the longest that I am single hahaha
Are you having a lot of casual flings?
Before the pandemic I do have some but didn't get too serious because our time contradicts, I'm busy as hell before also with so many engagements in and out of work plus I don't make myself available during weekends same as now. Maybe they get tired and just call it quits.
What do your parents think of your situation?
They're the ones stressing me out about being single. They kept on telling me to go on dates but they don't want me to stay out late. wutttttttttttttttttt?????? They once set me up with a family friend's son and then I met up with him, that night went well and we part ways at 10 pm because I told him I am meeting my BFF. When my mom knew about it she wants me to go home in an instant because it's getting late. lol!! My mom really confuses me a lot of times. Every time me and my mom cuddle she would always insert this issue in between our talks. "Do you have a boyfriend now? Are you dating? I know a friend whose son is single. You should go meet him once" I always decline and sometimes do not answer her. But when I want to ask permission because I'll be having a date with my girlfriends she would always nag me that it's dangerous going outside so I should stay at home" aigoooooooo
Do you like the single life?
I do like being single. I know my work is time-consuming but I am enjoying it. My time at home is precious and I can never exchange the feeling of hugs and kisses with my son to some other strangers we only meet for a short time. Being single made me love my life more. Made me value the things I already have but didn't notice for a while, made me love the people whom are always there by my side in my ups and downs and never doubts me a single bit.
Hoooo! That would be all. Judge me all you can I don't care, This is me, This is me, I'm exactly what I'm supposed to be now, Gonna let the light shine on me...I don't know the rest of the lyrics lol!
