So if you are still confused about your relationship status and worry about changing it to ‘taken’, then read these answers we found on Quora about – ‘How does it feel to be single at 18?’. These are definitely funny and will make you want to celebrate your singlehood.
1. ‘There’s no drama, no argument.’ – Oh yeah! SO True.
Harmeet Singh Whan answers on Quora: You don’t have to buy gifts to make someone happy which is most difficult task according to me. There’s no drama, no argument.
2. ‘I discovered something amazing – I was gay’ – You do get to know yourself better!
Steve Zara answers on Quora: There’s a difference between not having a girlfriend or boyfriend and never having had a girlfriend or boyfriend. Never having had a girlfriend or boyfriend for me was devastating. I felt useless and pathetic, very unhappy. It felt like a huge part of being a human was missing for me. I hadn’t any idea as to how to change this situation. This went on for many, many years after I was 18. Then I discovered something amazing – I was gay.
3. ‘Go travel! Go places! Meet new people! Don’t fret about having no love life, that will come to you!’ – Yes, when the time is right!

4. ‘Good things come to those who wait. Enjoy it while it lasts.’ – Wise words, we must say!
Anonymous answers on Quora: Lots of people have that feeling of left-out. The TV, the movies, advertising, everything is couples couples couples. Tea for two. Double trouble. Teamwork. Two to tango. Twin towers. One is the loneliest number. Look at it this way: Good things come to those who wait. Enjoy it while it lasts. Give yourself something to look back on. Take your time.

6. ‘It feels normal.’ – There! Someone said it.
Himanshu Chawale answers on Quora: It feels Normal. Totally peaceful. Also, there’s always enough money in your wallet and loads of free time. There is no urgent need to have a boyfriend/girlfriend soon as you are 18ish.
7. ‘It feels like you aren’t currently interested.’ – And that’s absolutely okay!
Jared MacLean answers on Quora: From personal experience, it feels like you aren’t currently interested/ready. Of course, this is coming from someone who doesn’t really see any reason to hurry, so it probably feels different if you’ve never had one and that’s not by choice.
