It basically means "I am quite content with the fact that I am single. I am not desperate for a boyfriend/girlfriend/partner".

It doesn't mean "I am happy specifically because I am single".

We sometimes use "happy" to mean "I'm OK thanks. I don't need anything/I don't need what you're offering!" For example:

Mother and daughter are eating a meal.
Mum: Do you want anything else?
Daughter: No, I'm fine.
Mum: Really, I have lots more food in the fridge. Are you sure?
Daughter: Yes, really, I'm quite happy with what I have on my plate. Thanks, though.

So here it's closer to "satisfied" rather than "happy - opposite of sad".
