Thoughts That Every Single Person Has Had
The thing about being single is that you're not alone. You aren't the only one on the planet who doesn't have someone to call their own, so that's one thing you latch onto if you're feeling down.
Also, plenty of singles probably have the same thoughts as well. You can bet they've all thought about the same thing at least once. Here are some of the most common things single people think.
Is It Obvious I'm Single?
Whether it's obvious or not, when you go to the beach solo with your towel and tanning lotion isn't up for anyone to judge. Enjoy your time alone, and realize you aren't the only one.
How Desperate Am I Feeling Tonight?
You scroll your timeline on Instagram and view all the stories on a Friday night only to see your friends hanging out with their significant others. How desperate are you feeling now?
Food Makes Me Happier Than Anyone Could
You've been single for so long, and you find solace in the food you consume. Coming to the realization that it makes you happier than any person ever could is natural.
Maybe I'm The One
You haven't found "The One," so you've succumbed to the inevitable thought. Perhaps, you are your own "one," and you don't need anyone else to share your world with anymore.
I've Forgotten What People Feel Like
You've spent so much time with your cute pet and your best friends. You don't remember what it's like to be around the opposite sex, but you don't care as long as you have your dog.
Am I Responsible Enough To Be In A Relationship?
Since you've been out of relationships for so long, you can't even imagine being responsible again. What about all the late nights, the risky text messages, and the hectic gym schedule?
Do I Talk To My Cat Too Much?
Your cat is pretty much your diary now. There's nothing wrong with that, and there's nothing wrong with being single for so long. I just hope that your cat doesn't learn how to talk one day.
Can I Even Flirt?
Forgetting how to flirt is one of the most unsatisfying feelings in the world. That's especially true if you haven't had any intimacy in a while. Throw on some Fresh Prince, and take notes from Mr. Smith.
Is My Dentist Flirting With Me?
Don't act as if you've never suspected your dentist or doctor was hitting on you. Sadly, you haven't felt anything real in some time, so you confuse customer service with getting hit on.
How Do You Date?
I get it, dating changes every season, and you've missed plenty of seasons. The scene can look daunting to the untrained eye, but don't sweat it too much. You aren't the only one who's afraid.
Maybe I'll Hold My Own Hand
What does holding hands feel like? You've forgotten what sensation that brings to you, so you want to see if you can imitate it with your own hand. To each their own.
Were They Flirting Or Being Nice?
Trying to decipher if someone was being nice or flirting with you after being out of that element for so long is tough. As long as you don't act on it immediately, you'll be fine.
Is It Okay To Dream About TV?
Dreaming about TV because all you do is watch television is okay. I mean, what else would you have dreams about: being in a relationship with someone who doesn't even want you?
Should I Do A Dating Show?
The dating shows don't look too hard to win. You probably think you'll get selected the moment you talk with the person trying to find love. Hey, it's anyone's game to lose.
Are Arranged Marriages Still A Thing?
If this is your thought, then the answer is yes. Some cultures still participate in arranged marriages, but don't get your hopes up trying to find a foreign boo to claim as yours.
Maybe I Should Buy Another Cat
Buying another cat puts you one step closer to becoming a cat lady or man. Is that the image you want for yourself when it is time to settle down with someone?
I Could Disappear And No One Would Know
This might be a grim thought, but it's partially true. Of course, your family would pay attention, but the ones you might've had feelings for probably won't even bat an eye.
Is It Cool To Cuddle My Pillow?
Grab that pillow and do your worst. No one is stopping you from getting close to the thing that keeps your neck comfortable at night. Just don't get too cozy there.
Maybe I Should Just Leave
Ever thought about boarding a one-way flight to the middle of nowhere and starting over? You aren't alone. That isn't a rare thought, even for people not single, so you're okay.
Everyone Dies Alone, It's Okay
As true as this thought is, it's still pretty sad. Don't let being alone get you down so much that you jump to thoughts about death. Learn to love yourself and you'll be on the right track.
