Good day #HiveWorld,
and to all the Ladies out there! It's still Women's Month and I want to share with you my perspective on why numerous women stay single.
I have many strong, independent female friends who are also single by choice — they're smitten with every aspect of it and brave enough to face the consequences of their actions. The advantages of living alone are innumerable and to remain single is nothing to be afraid of.
Relationships are no longer the highest point of human existence By the way guys, most of these women are truly beautiful, smart and most importantly happy being unattached. Flying solo can be more enjoyable now than ever before. A growing number of individuals are choosing to remain alone for extended periods, if not their entire lives.
People think that I chose to stay single because I'm a straightforward lady with an intimidating demeanour and no man can hold his reins on me. They are wrong. Meeting the right person is uncomplicated. I just recognise the delusion for what it is: a figment of imagination.
In actuality, being self-reliant can lead to a lot more satisfaction and freedom. That I most take pleasure in. A growing number of women now believe that being single is having more time for themselves. Though dating occasionally is enjoyable, it's an opportunity to establish a connection without committing or being bound. Some women opt not to date at all, and they discover that their lives are perfectly happy without romantic attachments.
I do date single guys in my age bracket,(even though younger guys are also asking for a date, but I turned them down because I feel uncomfortable - they are almost half my age!) they also are nonetheless bachelors and it's gratifying. We merely conversed about younger days when we were so idealistic about choosing a life partner, cracking jokes over some things that we did when we were in grade school or high school, playing our favorite sports, and so many things to talk about over a cup of coffee or dining out in a cozy resto.
That isn't to say that relationships are bad. However, real life, and real relationships, are rarely easy. It requires a significant amount of effort, and understandably, not all women wish to do it.
In my younger years, I wished to settle down with the one I wanted to be with for the rest of my life but things turned 360 degrees when my boyfriend passed away the turn of events was not that easy for me and plans changed in a blink of an eye. I remain single with kids.
When it comes to everyday activities, single women are usually busier than single men. They engage in more active social lives and other activities. Single women have much more time to pursue their interests, education, careers, and life goals than women in relationships. Women appreciate their freedom and desire to prioritise themselves in their lives. Many of a woman's key needs are no longer met solely through a partnership. Being alone and being lonely are not the same thing.
I am one of many women who appreciate and respect private time. It does not make me sad even though my son passed away recently. Spending time alone offers me a strong sense of joy. Rather than longing for a man in my home after my son's death, I took pleasure in having my own space. I have plenty of time going places, tending the garden, crocheting, embroidering, writing soul-stirring content and poetry, creating my favorite fresh blossom art and flower calligraphy, glass bracelet making, simple drawing and other things that can make me more fruitful. Of course, appreciating quiet moments implies that I also enjoy myself!
Self-love can seem like an antiquated phrase. However, we should never underestimate the significance and power of self-confidence. Identifying the genuine source of self-esteem, expectations are likely to rise along with it. Happy and secure single women aren't desperately hunting for someone to fill the void. If they do want a companion, they are willing to wait until they come across the best match and circumstances for them.
Nothing surpasses having some time as a single lady to go on a journey of self-discovery. The most important relationship is the one I have with myself. Using spare time to pursue and develop hobbies, ideals, likes and dislikes, and interests without becoming involved in a relationship. I can make my own decisions without having to seek permission or consider the opinions of others. Moving to a new area, travelling whenever and wherever I choose, attending a play or watch my favourite movie, dine with girl friend/s, and engaging in other activities allow me to make the most of my time and resources.
In today's world, a growing number of women are opting to be unmarried simply because they can. Single people have stronger relationships with their neighbours, friends, and family. It's just a matter of preference, single or in a relationship. Furthermore, whatever decision you make no longer matters much and doesn't define who you are.
A Silver Slate Single Woman
A relationship may seem to be the missing piece of the puzzle but for me, this is not required...THIS IS SIMPLY AN EXPRESSION OF VIEW FROM A SILVER-SLATE SINGLE WOMAN.
I guess I have burned lavishly of your time. I am delighted to impart a small chunk about me with you and I am thrilled about heading toward this amazing avenue with all of you!
Thank you for fetching around my blog and checking out the post. Catch you on my next blog.
Namaste,
@diosarich💞

Where were you when I didn’t have a boyfriend? I wish I was surrounded with women who have the same thoughts as me, but it’s an opposite ‘coz they encouraged me to date a man. They laughed that seems bullying saying I’d be a matandang dalaga. Anyhow, past is past and I have this little angel beside me that I love most. It’s my fate and I’m grateful that she came because it gives me lessons and a lot of realizations.
I truly admire women who can’t live without a man.
Hahaha...where am I? Maybe I was on Venus to avoid Mars. 😂 Just kidding. We first met in 2017 on another platform. We weren't as close as you were to Sir Long's group, and I joined them midway. I've read your blogs and am a fan. I enjoy reading your writings, and one of my favourites is when you were in a museum and had long hair. I remember it flipping on your face when it was snapped...😍
By the way, baby boomer ladies have a rather conservative personality. They are quite anxious that if you hit the marriageable age and haven't found the one yet, instead of urging you to occupy yourself with other things and stop seeking a life partner, they will pick on you. I turn away from those kind of peers. I always seek out individuals who share my outlook on life and can help me bring out the best in myself.☺️ I am happy that you have found your niche with that cute angel. Remember, experiences teach us lessons and make us strong. You are now an independent woman. Congratulations, dear @iamshane48788. You made it on your own! I am just around, you can lend an ear.🌷🌷🌷
As always, I enjoy reading your blogs, and with this, felt like I have come to know you more.
Absolutely, I agree that our happiness isn't reliant on a man or any other individual. It's our conscious decision to embrace happiness, even when single. Being by oneself doesn't equate to feeling lonely.
Hello, Ate @luvinlyf.
Thank you for swinging by again. I am glad you have gotten to know me by now. Being alone does not imply being lonely, as these are distinct aspects of a person's existence. Happiness is determined by the individual. It's a personal decision. See you in my next blog. Have a blessed Maundy Thursday. 🌷🕊️
Your thoughts are really on point and yah they do state a lot of facts when it comes to women empowerment and being self-reliant. But if you find your one true love and your soul mate I guess that is one reason to have a mate beside you through thick and thin.
But if it will only mean you having boundaries on things that you wish to do, well I guess it's really up to you.
I previously had three apparently lifetime partners, but we weren't meant to be. My college boyfriend and the last one have joined our Creator, while the second left me for another lady because he desired a lavish lifestyle in the United States. That's why I've decided to remain single with kids. I'm not fortunate to have a partner -destiny? What are your thoughts?
Following the death of my last mate, I am content with my present situation. I told myself to be independent and concentrate on my kids. They are my precious gems, even though my youngest died last year after a 24-year battle with sickness. I am occasionally lonely because of my son's demise, but not because I do not have a man at my side. I'm delighted for you, dear @aideleijoie since you've found your match. God bless you.🌷🕊️
Well I am not a lady but wanted to respond to this as well. I am in my 40's and after many years of jumping from one girl to another and one relationship that I invested 6 years of my life into only to have it fall apart and get my heart broken because of it, I have chosen to be single for the past 5 years. I'm not George Clooney or anything, but I am not bad looking.. I have opportunities to date but I am comfortable being single. I feel as though a lot of people try so hard to always have a partner in their lives even if this partnership doesn't even make them happy.
If I end up alone forever I am ok with that because I like me and my friends like me to. My dog REALLY likes me. I am not lonely.
I don't see anything wrong with being single. They always say "if you can't be happy alone you are not going to be happy with another person either."
This doesn't mean that you and I are going to be single forever, it just means that we aren't actively looking nor do we feel that the absence of a partner is something that makes us sad. I'm not sad and it doesn't look like you are either!
If someone comes along in my life I am not going to chase them away, but at the same time I am perfectly happy to be on my own. Good for you!
Hello, my friend @gooddream. I greatly appreciate your views on the subject, and I thank you for sharing about your own life as a single person. You hit the bullseye! Being alone does not imply loneliness, and neither of us are actively looking. In my case, I don't want to be in a relationship anymore following those events in my life.
The elderly pointed out I had a widow's peak, which was why my lover died or left. Well, I am not a superstitious person, but I just want to stop since I am comfortable being single. I also have a 13-year-old grandson who makes me happy. He never fails to brighten my day.
I also have a group of single women who gather to play our favourite activities like bowling or simply stroll around town and have a cup of coffee or dine out for a tete-a-tete.
I enjoy travelling around the countryside with college pals and reminiscing about our teeny-weeny escapades. ☺️ It lifts my spirit.🌷🕊️
Ako may asawa dahil naniwala tlaga sa kasal at sakal😊..Di uso pa noon said probinsya sa amin single mom, marami nag-asawa bata pa, bihira ang may anak na wala asawa at ang marami matandang babae na walang asawa o boyfriend.

Hi Sis, @olivia08. Hindi naman nauuso kung single mom o kasal. Nasa desisyon ng tao kung anong gusto nyang estado sa buhay. Life is what we make it wika nga. Tayo ang mahdadala ng sarili nating buhay kaya tayo ang may karapatang magdesidyon para sa atin. Oara sa skin ayaw kon/ magpakassl sa di ko mahal at walang kapupuntahan maganda ang isang relasyon, ako din ang mahihirapan. Matrimony is a sacred covenant between you, your partner and God. Kaya pinili kong mag-isang itaguyod and buhay kasama ang aking mga anakat siyempre sa tulong ng aking mga kapatid at Ina dahil wala na naman akong ama. Hindi man marangya ang buhay naming mag-ina nakakaraos at masaya kami sa buhay kahit may mga bagyo at unos mang dumarating. With prayers and our faith in God nalalagpasan namin lahat. Ganyan ang buhay may kanya-kanya tayong level sa pagsubok sa ating dinadaanan. Salamat sa pag-share ng iyong story being a married woman. God bless, Sister. 💕🙏🌷🕊️
