The Best Things About Being Single During Spring
While there are perks to being either single and in a relationship all year round, it goes without saying that some seasons are just better for one than the other.
For example, winter (AKA "cuffing season") is a time being single might feel a lot less fun than when summer is in full swing. And while spring falls right in the middle of the two, we're here to tell you about all the best things about being single during spring.
It's Peak 'Uncuffing' Season
Many relationships that formed when fall was at its fiercest are now reaching their expiration dates at hyper speed, especially now that Valentine's Day is over and we're starting to welcome in the less romantic holidays. This means you certainly won't be the only single one at your brunch table, so you can share in the chaotic dating conversations and revel in the joys of springtime singledom.

2 Words: Spring Break
Sure, spring break is super fun whether you're single or in a relationship. However, being single means that you don't have to coordinate plans with your partner and that you can spend that sweet mid-semester week however you so choose. Whether you go on a girls' trip with your best friends or spend the whole break binging The Bachelor on your couch, the choice is all yours.

You Can Buy Yourself Flowers (Literally)
If you aren't already hearing the tune of Miley Cyrus's latest earworm, you sure are about to. It's springtime. There are flowers everywhere. You don't need anyone else to buy them for you. You truly can love yourself better than someone else can, especially the wrong someone else. In spring especially, you deserve to take yourself on all the kinds of dates you would want someone else to take you on, just because.

You Can Spend More Time With Friends
When you're young, relationships can feel like your whole world revolves around the person you're dating. And yet, most of these relationships don't last for the long run, so why do we fret so much over them instead of spending time with our friends? The memories you make now can last a lifetime, so make sure to spend your time making ones you'll always love looking back on.
