I feel the same way. Being single is better the same way that not dealing with room mates is better. But the relationship project, as a concept, isn't "two is better than one"; in a world where we met a lot of people (a thing rapidly receding into the past), you eventually met someone with whom your chemistry is so overwhelmingly, irrationally powerful that you feel like you can't afford not to be with them, which blows the joys of being single out of the water. That might be obvious to people, but it's been a while since I was reminded about that feeling. When I remembered, I realized I was thinking about relationships the wrong way. :p Dating apps also skew your thinking, where you're picking from a menu, engaging your rational brain about what ingredients add up to good chemistry. "If they're `x`, that's a deal breaker. They need to be `y`! Also, I want someone who `z`s..." There's no rational analysis though; it's the least rational thing ever. You just have to try enough times. That might also not be the sole motivator for people who feel lonely being single (a thing I can't really relate to, thankfully -- being in a relationship just cuz I have to sounds like hell).
