Being single means no-boyfriend or no-girlfriend status. Being single is more beneficial. The first advantage is freedom. You are free to do whatever you want, whenever you want. For instance, for the guys, instead of staying with their girlfriend every weekend, they could enjoy drinking at bar with their buddies. For the girls, instead of watching a baseball game in which her boyfriend was one of players, she could be at a beauty salon, or go shopping. So that, they can go out with anyone they like without worrying about someone's jealousy. They can have a joke with a cute guy or hit on cute girl. The second advantage, they are just obligated themselves. They have more time to improve their knowledge, skills and appearance. Being single you can focus on more important things such as your work, studies, etc.. They do not waste their time and money on unuseful masters. And the final reason, falling in love, they feel happy or get hurt, feel dejected, or dampened. Unfortunately, they can get stress, have some psychological sicknesses.
