Medical Video: Reasons to Remain Single
Single words, which in English are called single, derived from the word "jomlo", Sundanese language that has been standardized in KBBI which means "women who are old but not married / have a partner". However, to facilitate pronunciation, the word "jomlo" is better known as "single." And the funny thing is, nowadays many people use the word "singles" to refer to everyone who doesn't have a boyfriend.
The number of people who think that having a boyfriend is a pride so it is not uncommon to make singles feel cornered. Even today, many people are not reluctant to insult their friends with the term "jones a.k.a jomblo ngenes". Even though you're joking, but without you realizing it, this insult can make singles feel even more sad. As a result, being a mockery has become the daily food of singles.
But, is it true that singles' lives are sad?
In fact, a study actually found that singles are usually healthier people than people who have romance. Research published in Psychological Social and Personality Sciences also found that someone who is afraid of experiencing conflict if having a special relationship with the opposite sex will be happier when they are single.
What are the benefits of being single?
Here are some proof that being single does not mean you have to be sad, because you might actually get the following benefits:
1. Single status can make you healthier
A study in psychologytoday.com found that singles, both men and women, get more physical exercise than those who have a partner. This makes the singles more likely to get the ideal body.
2. Have lots of friends
A study found that singles can be better at maintaining relationships with friends, family, or neighbors compared to those who have a partner. This is because singles do not have a "burden" and more responsibility for their partners so they can focus on maintaining relationships with friends, family, or neighbors.
In addition, researchers have also learned that usually, married people tend to be less connected with friends or family than those who are single. The reason is because people who are married will tend to focus more on the small family he is building.
3. Singles tend not to worry about their finances
When you get married or have a partner, you will tend to spend extra money. For those who are married and have children, they will focus on raising money for household, educational, and health expenses for couples and children. As for those who are still dating, usually they will collect extra money to give a surprise, birthday gift, or a celebration of relations every month.
This makes people who are married or have partners tend to spend more money than those who are single. So it is not surprising if singles tend not to be confused with their finances except for personal needs such as clothing, food, shelter.
4. Singles tend to be more generous
This is based on the fact that people who are married or have a partner will have "responsibility" more in sharing financial needs compared to singles. So it is not surprising if singles tend to be more generous than those who have a partner.
5. Emotions that are more awake
In each relationship there will always be conflicts or problems encountered. As a result, problems in a relationship can make a person's emotions fluctuate compared to those who are single.
6. More independent
Usually, singles are more independent than those who don't. This is based because they are more accustomed to not relying on other people or partners. So, they tend to grow into someone who is more independent and strong in living everything in life.
7. A brilliant career
Because there are no distractions such as problems or drama in relationships, singles will focus more on their education and work so they have more time to develop themselves.
