Facebook has brought a lot of great things in its time. It makes it a lot easier to connect with long-lost friends. It makes it so you don't have to remember people's birthdays. It just makes communicating with people a lot simpler. But one downfall to Facebook is that, with no fault of its own, has put an emphasis on relationship status. Any time someone gets a boyfriend, or someone breaks up, Facebook is there with a big banner and trumpet letting the world know. For some people, this is no big deal, it's just part of life. But for those who are already insecure about being single, this is like waving a a big piece of cake in front of someone who is dieting. This is especially true with younger girls, who are struggling to find their identity, and trying to conquer their self-esteem issues.
The fact of the matter is that we are placing too much emphasis on a relationship status. Just because someone doesn't have a boyfriend or girlfriend doesn't mean they're not attractive. Just because someone else has a boyfriend and you don't doesn't mean that you're less attractive than them. We have to get past this idea that if you're single, you're worth less than other people, because that's simply not true. Most people don't realize that being single is far more important than being in a relationship. You have the opportunity to grow a lot more when you're single. You aren't spending all your time wrapped up thinking about someone else. You can focus on yourself, focus on being a better person, and a better potential boyfriend or girlfriend. Being single also shows that you have high enough self-esteem that you don't need someone to tell you that you're attractive. Many girls have such low self-esteem that they bounce from one relationship to the other, seeking attention from guys. Not only that, but we all know people who are single who are far more happy than some people in relationships.
I'm not telling you that if you're single, you need to be in a relationship, or if you're in a relationship, you need to break up. My point is that whatever your relationship situation is, then enjoy it. Stop comparing yourself to other people, because they are not you. If we try and force something just to have a label, then it's not going to work. We will never get anywhere in life if we are constantly trying to be someone else. Your goal no matter what your situation is to grow daily, so that when the opportunity arises, you are ready. And stop believing the lie that just because you're single, you're not attractive, because that simply isn't true. Look at me, I'm single, and I'm pretty much the hottest human boy ever :)
