Reasons

Last night in the library, while I was supposed to be studying for my Humanities midterm, I started thinking about my dating life. It's been pretty crazy these past few months (?) and I've been able to interact with quite a few incredible people. However, I'm still single. After this thought occurred in my observant little head, this list quickly followed:

Ten Reasons Why I Like Being Single
1. No obligations
2. NCMOs
3. Free time
4. Spontaneity
5. Lack of boredom
6. Don't have to let others in
7. Spend time with different people
8. No risks
9. Independence
10...okay so I can't think of anymore reasons

As I started to look over this list, I realize how lonely I sound. I've always been happy being on my own, and I still am. But I think it's about time that I grow up and accept that I don't want to be on my own forever. So...

Ten Reasons Why Dating is Nice
1. Obligations
2. No more NCMOs
3. Time spent with someone I love
4. Spontaneity
5. Relaxation
6. Let someone in
7. Still meeting new people
8. Risks
9. Knowing someone is there for me
10. Love

One day, I'll actually believe these reasons.
