'Young, wild and committed.' Yes, you read that right.
This is for someone who has thought of their twenties as a time to put off love and see what the world has to offer or those who think being in a stable relationship in your twenties is a waste of youth. Some will even go onto say that it's the time to discover yourself and that can't happen when you are too busy loving someone else. Well, they are wrong.?
Some of the most motivated and successful people I have met have been in stable and long-term relationships in their twenties. Why? Because when your love life is sorted, you have all the time in the world to focus on your career and hustling everyday to make all your dreams come true.
I am not saying single people can't achieve heights of success, but any honest single person will tell you that at least once in a week they do think about how life and it's sweet successes would be better if they had someone to share it with.?
So, if you are not seeing someone because you feel it will end your independence or somehow pose as a barrier in your career and that you won't be able to give your friends or family time, this declaration is for you.
We've thoughtfully prepared a list of perks and benefits that will show you the magic of being in a stable relationship in your twenties and why it is so rewarding.?

8. One thing less to worry about: sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) because it can only be a stable relationship if you and your partner are exclusive.?
9. Loneliness is a nasty feeling; something you won't know.?
