On tonight's "Girl Code" episode, everyone's favorite sassy ladies talk about the holidays and what it's like to be #foreveralone during the spirited festivities.
The girls bring up the concept of having a "holiday boyfriend" to tote around as arm candy this cuffing season, but we're here to tell you that you might actually be better off without a significant other. Here are all the reasons why being single for the holidays is secretly the best thing ever.
1. You can freely stuff your face at Thanksgiving
Simultaneously shoveling a pound of mashed potatoes and pie into your mouth while accidentally chewing with your mouth open may not make the best impression on your new S.O. Neither will unbuttoning your pants when your stomach is too full to be contained by your jeans' waistband.

2. You don't need to stress about finding the perfect present for a significant other
And when you secretly hate the puke green bathrobe they gave you, you won't need to feign happiness. You also won't have to wear the stupid thing just frequently enough so that they think you like it.
3. You save a ton of $$$ by not buying said present for your nonexistent S.O.
Buy yourself something instead. You deserve it.
4. The only thing stealing your bed covers in this freezing weather is your adorable pet
The polar vortex is going on outside. You need that comforter to stay warm, and Fido takes up way less blanket than a real person does.
5. You don't have to pretend to like your S.O.'s weird friend group during holiday parties
When you're a couple who wants to spend the holidays side-by-side, you usually need to choose which person's friend group to celebrate each holiday with. When you're single, you can hang out with only the people you actually WANT to chill with.
6. You can kiss ANYONE on New Year's
When there's a gazillion attractive people hanging out at a friend-of-a-friend's New Year's Eve rager, you can shamelessly get your flirt on. There are so many droolworthy options!
7. There are no awkward introductions to extended family members
Being forced to make strained, polite conversation is worse than getting coal for Christmas.
8. You get to do all the cute wintry couple things with your friends instead
You know you'll have an awesome time with your pals, and they won't judge you when you spend 10 minutes picking the perfect Instagram filter for your iceskating pic.
9. You can be 100% selfish in a good way
If you want to spend all day not wearing pants, so be it. If you want to call up your high school ex for a little hometown hanky panky, there's no one stopping you. If you want to swipe through Tinder pics until you get carpal tunnel, go for it. Do whatever you want, whenever you want. You don't have to answer to anyone -- except maybe your parents? -- so you do YOU!
