Sometimes we may feel that everybody around us is in a relationship. This can be tough particularly if you feel like there is pressure for you to be in a relationship. It may help to know that it is a great time to get to know yourself - which makes future relationships even better!

Everybody is different and this is reflected in what we want out of life. There are lots of good reasons why you may not want a relationship or feel as though you are not ready to have a relationship with a partner right now.

It's definitely OK to be single and there's nothing wrong with you!

There are also many good things about being single. Some of these may be:

Your decisions only affect you and do not involve a partner's wants or needs.
You can concentrate on doing things you enjoy.
You can spend time with your friends and meet new people to have good times with.
It gives you time to reflect on your choices.
If friends are hassling you because you are single it may be worth remembering the great things about being single and letting them know that being single is Ok.

Spend time with other single people. It may be a good time to try joining a sporting team to meet some new people. You can also take time out to concentrate on doing things you enjoy.
