Do the words lonely, insecure, and unloved sound familiar? These are the feelings we (personally or as a society) often associate with being single. But, why should they be?

Single-hood can actually be one of the most liberating experiences of our life, if we allow it to be.

Independent, satisfied, exhilarated, confident, happy, loved: These are emotions that we should strive for. Your relationship status doesn't define your happiness or the emotions you allocate to it — You do.

Here are some uplifting, positive quotes to remind you of just that!

1. On focusing on yourself.

2. On knowing what "single" means to YOU.

4. On knowing your priorities.

10. On the best parts of single-hood.

The best thing about being a single is sleeping around. You can sleep all over that bed of yours. Left. Right. Middle. Wherever.

11. On learning to enjoy yourself.

13. On knowing what really matters.

There's so much more to life than finding someone who will want you, or being sad over someone who doesn't. There's a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in love with you along the way. And it doesn't need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with love. Not anyone else. — Emery Allen
