Day Five: The biggest misconception you think people have about single life
I had a few ideas on how to answer this one. People think that being single means one of two things: either we're out partying all the time, or we're always sad and lonely.
I have to admit, the latter is probably closer to the truth for me, but it's still not true. Maybe it's because I have kids. Maybe it's because I'm older and don't have the energy to party anymore. Who knows. But I'm not into that scene. And to be honest, that's not how I want to meet someone. The partying type is not the type for me.
So I stay home for the most part. Sure, I go out once in a while, but I don't need it. That doesn't mean that I'm sad and lonely. Sure I get sad. And sure I feel lonely sometimes. But just because I'm sitting at home, waiting for Prince Charming to knock on my door, doesn't mean I'm a big sad sack! A lot of us enjoy the quiet time. I personally don't get a lot of that, with the kids around, but that makes me enjoy it that much more when I get it.
I suppose that's it. That's what I think is the biggest misconception. We do know how to balance fun and alone time :)
