  1. Less expenses

It might be a cool way of thinking, but you have one less gift to buy without a boyfriend or girlfriend. In addition to saving your pocketbook, you also save yourself the stress of planning the ideal gift and snogging among other people in crowded stores this time of year.

  1. It is easier to escape from constraints

New Year's Eve parties are often chosen by people to introduce that special someone to the family. While it can really be a fun time, the responsibility and expectations can be even greater, as it's usually at these times that even that third cousin who drinks too much and asks a thousand and one embarrassing questions is a gift.

Not having someone to introduce you to (and possibly witnessing family fights) and not having the "obligation" to party with the other's family can make the time a lot less stressful than it could have been if you weren't single. Think about it!

  1. It is you (and only you) who chooses the role

Okay, being in a relationship doesn't give someone the right to force you to go to a celebration you won't participate in, but everyone knows that when two people want to be together all the time, they end up giving in to some of the others.

Sometimes that means joining someone else's firm get-together, where you don't know anyone. In others, this means putting up with that annoying aunt of the person, who keeps questioning her clothes without being asked for her opinion. In singleness, however, it is you who chooses where, how, and with whom the celebration will be held, in addition to being able to decide what time to arrive and leave them freely.

  1. No fights on the vacation trip

It is natural that many people start planning couple trips at the end of the year. Although the prospect of traveling with a partner is usually positive, it is always possible that everyone has a different idea of ​​destination, which can generate a discussion like that. Or, even worse: just imagine fighting during the trip, when there's not much to run to. And you thought that having a relationship at this time was necessary!

"I don't know why anyone would want a boyfriend. It's too much drama for me."

  1. You can meet new people

Could it be that among the lamentations for not having that special someone to keep you company during the festivities did you stop to think that this is a great time to put your little body to the game. If you're a single person, the chances of friends dragging you to parties are great, and you can use this opportunity to eventually meet that special someone (especially at New Year's celebrations, when people have that "kissing" story. midnight") or pay attention to that person who has always been there and who suddenly becomes interesting.

Now it's time to activate Tinder, put on your best clothes, and receive party invitations with open arms. Oh, and what happens at the firm party, stays at the firm party!

  1. "Single" travel becomes an option

In addition to no longer needing to discuss destinations, itineraries, and expenses and still being a free, light and free person to meet new people, it is possible to combine business with pleasure and make a "single trip." In the same way that some destinations are the face of a more couples program, others are more receptive to people who are more relaxed, especially during the festivities.

  1. It is a good time for reflection and self-knowledge

In addition to the people who have been single for some time, there are also those who ended the relationship recently, have not recovered from the end, and are not interested in meeting new people. Despite family members walking on eggshells around you or giving you advice you didn't request or friends insisting on introducing you to new people, this can be a great time to pay attention to your habits, goals, and anxieties.

Feel like staying home and watching the entire catalog of romantic comedy movies on Netflix? Do it. Thinking about buying something extravagant for weeks? So give yourself that gift. Want to travel to a Hindu retreat like the character in "Eat, Pray and Love"? Go! Use your single period to pamper yourself, reflect on the year ahead, and set goals for what's to come.

  1. Family Get-Togethers

The family get-togethers on holidays are always an important part of the event. It is a time when we can spend time with our family and also share in the joy and happiness of this moment together.

It is great that we have come into a day that brings us all together to celebrate this occasion. Make sure that you plan out your time well so that you can enjoy it the most with all the members of your family.

  1. Everyone Is An Emotional Mess

Every holiday we go through difficult and often unexpected emotions. We may be too busy, too lonely, and not in a good mood.

Some people get so caught up in the holidays that they forget about their problems and just enjoy themselves.

  1. Watching movies alone at home

Watching movies alone at home on holidays is becoming a trend recently for singles. This is because people want to avoid crowds on holidays and also want to not be distracted by other activities during the movie.
