1. Socializing:
Single Person: The social butterfly, always out there meeting new people. You’ve mastered the art of going to events solo, where you show up, mingle, and leave as the life of the party... or at least you pretend you’re not awkward when someone asks, “So, who’s your date?”
1. Socializing:
Couple: The tag-team duo. You roll into events together, making an entrance that says, "Yes, we’re adorable and we’re in love, deal with it." You’re either the power couple who everyone envies, or that couple who spends the whole night trying to make eye contact across the room while you both scroll through your phones.
2. Netflix and Chill:
Couple: The infamous “compromise” phase. You start by arguing about what to watch, then spend 20 minutes scrolling through Netflix only to settle on something neither of you really wants to watch. By the time it’s halfway through, one of you falls asleep, and the other pretends not to notice. The struggle is real.
2. Netflix and Chill:
Single Person: You’ve got the remote all to yourself. No arguments about what to watch. It’s a solo binge-fest where you can watch The Office for the 34th time, without anyone judging your taste. You’re living your best life, with snacks everywhere and zero judgment.
3. Eating Out:
Couple: The cute sharing ritual. You order appetizers, swap bites, and post cute pictures of each other on Instagram with “#RelationshipGoals” in the caption. If you’re both into food, you might even argue over who gets the last piece of pizza, but hey, it's all in good fun.
3. Eating Out:
Single Person: Dining alone? No problem. It’s a power move. You’ll either savor a meal in peace or relish the freedom of ordering whatever you want without worrying about sharing. Plus, you get all the fries to yourself.
4. Traveling:
Couple: Planning a trip? Prepare for endless discussions: “Do you want the beach or the mountains?” “Do we need to book this now?” “I don’t want to take a 6-hour flight!” After hours of decision-making, you finally settle on a destination… and spend most of the trip either fighting over the temperature settings in the hotel room or trying to match your outfits for vacation photos.
4. Traveling:
Single Person: You are the master of spontaneous travel. No need to check with anyone first. "I’m going to Paris next weekend," you say, and off you go to explore the world solo. You’ll take selfies and create your own adventure, and no one can tell you that you’ve packed too many shoes.
5. The Weekend Routine:
Couple: Saturdays are for “couple activities.” Whether it’s going to that brunch spot everyone’s talking about or getting lost in an argument about how the laundry should be folded, you two are in this together. The weekend is also filled with "What do you want to do?" followed by a long silence, and eventually deciding on a Netflix show you’ve both seen 10 times.
5. The Weekend Routine:
Single Person: A Saturday night is spent in cozy pajamas, either binge-watching a show, FaceTiming your friends, or discovering a new hobby that no one else knows about. You’ve mastered the art of ‘doing nothing’ without feeling guilty.
