    20 Reasons Not To Fall In Love

    Some may consider Christmas to be one of the most romantic times of the year. Bah humbug to that we say! To celebrate Kirsty Moseley's REASONS NOT TO FALL IN LOVE, the Carina team came up with twenty of our own...

    1. You never have to say ‘no, darling, YOU have the last piece’.

    2. It’s a good excuse for getting a cat – and there’s no danger of it loving them more than you.

    3. There’ll be no-one to judge you for getting into your pyjamas and hitting the cheese the moment you get home.

    4. You don’t have to share/argue over the remote.

    5. No one is there to tell you exactly how many peanut M&Ms you’ve eaten.

    6. You can spend ages getting dressed and no one will remind you that you’ve been picking out an outfit for over an hour.

    7. You can spend more energy on waiting for Ryan Gosling to turn up and whisk you away – it could totally still happen!

    8. You never have to spend your Saturday afternoons watching the football…or the rugby…or [insert any ball game here].

    9. It’s almost acceptable to go through the entire winter without shaving your legs.

    10. You can spend lots of time with your own friends, rather than someone else’s.

    11. You don’t have to leap up in the middle of dinner to find more food for the bottomless dustbin sitting opposite you.

    12. You can listen to The Backstreet Boys/Disney songs/Wicked at full volume and on repeat, without being teased or forced to “take turns”.

    13. You don’t have keep promising your mother that you’ll marry a doctor/lawyer/investment banker/Edward Cullen instead.

    14. You can watch whatever you want (America’s Next Top Model) on TV whenever you want to (constantly!)

    15. You don’t have to pretend to be impressive in the kitchen and can actually eat 4 slices of toast for dinner if you want.

    16. You can spend your evenings with the most magnificent of men. (Like Mr Darcy.)

    17. You never have to watch Man vs Food.

    18. George Clooney is taken.

    19. You wear whatever you like to bed, including that sauce-stained oversized t-shirt you “borrowed” from your best friend.

    20. Makes for a cheaper Christmas!
