When you're not in a relationship, there's something that all of the people asking you about your prospects and trying to arrange setups don't realize: Being single is amazing. You get to live your life on your own terms. You don't have to make compromises for anyone. You can spend your time nurturing other kinds of supportive relationships in your life with your friends and family. And being single means you're definitely not wasting any time with the wrong person, and instead focusing on the most important one: yourself.

But don't take our word for it. There are tons of inspirational quotes from celebrated thinkers, hilarious comedians and celebrities who see the solo life for just how great it is. Whether you're getting over a breakup, putting a pause on dating after a divorce or vowing to stay unattached forever, these quotes about being single might just capture the way you feel. Write them on your Galentine's Day cards, text them to solo friends who may need a little encouragement and keep a few in the back of your mind for days when you might be feeling down. Because, as the experts here say, the longest relationship you'll ever have is the one with yourself — so make sure you know how awesome you are, independent of anyone else.
