10) Facebook status
Are you looking for random play, friendship, or just whatever you can get? OMG! The possibilities are endless when your status doesn’t say “In a relationship.”

9) More space in bed
Cuddling is great and all, but when you have someone smothering you every night, it can drive you nuts. If you’re unattached, even if you are hooking up with someone, you can kick them out without feeling guilty and stretch out alllll night long.

8) Diversity dating
Variety is the spice of life. By not committing to one person, you can date someone new every night. Feel like getting with a frat guy one night and an emo kid the next? Um, that’s kinda weird, but go for it!

7) Mental stability
If you have a significant other, you can’t help but worry about what, or who, they’re doing all the time. The great part about staying single is only having to think about what –or who- you’re going to do today. Feel at peace not having to worry about anything except if you’re going to get with that hottie tonight…

6) Don’t have to buy presents
Oh, today was our six-month anniversary? Shit… Stay single and you won’t have to remember an extra birthday or anniversary, or buy any lame gifts for them. I’d rather get some shots on Valentine’s Day than a teddy bear.

5) No one to check in with
You don’t want your mom with you at college, so why would you want to report to a boyfriend or girlfriend about your every move? Where are you going? Who will you be with? Will there be guys there?! …Yes, there will be guys where I’m going, and I’m probably going to make out with them. Any more questions?!

4) Flirting is fun
“Hey baby, you’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen.” Um, okay, I don’t really buy your pick-up lines, but it’s still fun to hear them and fake flirt back, even if I have no interest in you.

3) No mo’ drama
When you’re casually dating someone, if you get in a fight or you get sick of them, all you have to do is stop returning their calls. But with a boyfriend, you actually have to deal with the problems and “care” about their “feelings”….eew feelings.

2) Free drinks (for girls)
This sucks for guys, but if you’re a girl, it’s like you won the lotto when you find some poor sap to buy you drinks all night. Will the drinks actually make you go home with the guy? Mmm, it depends, but the drunker we are, the more you look like Jude Law. Buy up boys!

1) Drunken hookups anyone?
Who doesn’t love a messy, blurry, embarrassing public drunken make out? Oh, it’s tacky to hook up in a bar? You probably won’t remember it tomorrow, so whatever. When you’re taken, you only get to dream about this magical experience, but single guys and gals can do whatever the hell they want. Oh the beauty of being single…
