Single life comes with the freedom of not feeling a need to let another person know what you’re doing.

I get that feeling because I’m a mother and I want to know how my children’s day is going and to remind them that I am here if they need me.

There’s a security in the comfort of knowing someone is so intimately tied to you that your well being matters to them, on a daily basis, which brings me straight to the first freedom that comes with commitment.

1. Freedom of Safety.

Feeling safe is a top priority for me, I don’t want to feel pressured to be someone I am not or do things I am not comfortable doing.

A healthy relationship provides safety of freedom from harm, knowing that you have an extra set of arms and legs in a fight, and another mind to help you think through difficult decisions, strengthens your physical and emotional capacity along with your relationship.

2. Freedom of Authenticity.

Companionship and commitment in a safe and healthy relationship gives you the freedom to be completely yourself.
