There’s no one to be jealous
Jealousy in some form or another always pops up in relationships. Whether you have to deal with your partner’s jealousy or you’re the jealous one, it takes a lot of energy to deal with. When you’re single you don’t have to worry about who’s texting who or why your phone calls aren’t going unanswered when your partner is at happy hour with new co-workers. Jealousy requires a lot of time and energy to control, which when you’re single you can funnel that time and energy to other areas of your life.
