2024 is a year that singles wouldn’t forget in a long time, it was gruesome! If it’s not VeeKee James and her husband peppering them on Instagram, it would be all these girlfriend proposals on X that make you want to cry (hisses in severe pain)
Their resolves were tested and if you haven’t succumbed to the pressure till now, you deserve some accolades. Maybe you even succumbed, but you were not lucky enough to secure a good catch, then you still get a prize for ending up single.
Maybe you’re hoping to get lucky before the end of this year, perish the idea! You’ve not come this far to give up now..
Think of the amazing benefits of being single at this time and stay guided. If you can’t think of any, then this article is for you. Stay with me as I share a few reasons why you should stay single this December
To Avoid Billing
December is the kind of month where being single might just be the ultimate survival hack. Have you really considered the cost implication of being with somebody at this time? Buying gifts, hanging out and all in T-pain’s economy? Where the monthly salary is hardly enough, and the savings have been used for all the previous rainy days.
Let’s face it: dating in December is expensive. By the time you’ve bought gifts, gone on fancy dates, and contributed to family events, you’ll be crying into your empty wallet come January. Staying single ensures you enter the new year financially stable.
Be financially smart my friend and avoid unnecessary bills at this time! Your life might depend on it! In case you’re not sure how to avoid bills, check here and thank me later.
Focus on Detty December
Detty December is a single person’s Olympics. Staying single means you can do whatever you want, whenever you want, without needing to compromise or justify yourself.
After all the shege you’ve seen this year, you deserve the freedom to party from sun up to sun down without feeling guilty when that artist you’ve been crushing on calls you up on stage for a dutty whine or answer “Where are you?” every five minutes.
Being single gives you the chance to fully embrace the December groove.
No Pressure for Relationship Posts
Let’s not even talk about the pressure of social media posts in December, where everyone is struggling to post cute “baecation” pictures or matching pyjamas on Christmas morning.
Staying single means no pressure to take or fake those perfect Instagram photos. You can scroll in peace and laugh at the oversabi couples.
Besides, we all know December is for showing off and January is for breaking up. Many couples don’t make it past Valentine’s planning stress.
Stay single in December, and you’ll skip the drama altogether.
Peace of Mind Is Priceless
December comes with enough wahala, fuel scarcity, end-of-year deadlines. Add relationship drama to the mix, and you’re asking for a migraine. Staying single lets you enjoy your peace of mind while sipping a cold drink
December is the season to live your best life. So if you’re single, wear that badge proudly, and if anyone asks, just tell them you’re saving for detty December 2024!
