Being single doesn’t necessarily mean being unhappy. Until love comes into your life, here are a couple of things you can do to keep your spirits up.
1. Take care of yourself
Being single means having all the time in the world to do whatever you want to do. Late night snacks? Why not? Seeing that movie that is so bad is good? Of course. Booking a massage in the middle of the week? No problem. That’s one of the best parts of being single: you don’t have to justify your plans to anyone.

2. Don’t worry about when it’s going to happen
Putting romance out of your mind for a while can only be good for you. Stressing about ending up alone will make you tense and anxious, which will eliminate the possibility of attracting the right person in your life. Trust the process and don’t try to control something that is not really in your hands.

3. Start a new hobby
Being single means also having the time to start doing things that you won’t have time for while being in couple. Painting, planting a garden, starting a jewelry line or just going to the gym more often are the kind of things you can do to keep your mind busy.

4. Keep your friends close
While being single, make sure you are surrounded by friends and family. One of the things people miss the most about being in a relationship is the companionship. And if you can get the sense of togetherness from your friends, you will feel less lonely. Be careful not to spend too much time in the presence of your coupled friends, whose happiness might get you down.

5. Learn from your experience
Now it’s a good time to think about what you’ve learned from your past relationships. Being aware of your expectations, of your likes and dislikes and of your deal-breakers will prove itself very useful when you’ll be in a relationship again. You’ll be more prepared and therefore more likely to have a long and happy relationship.
Stay single until you find somebody who can rock your world! Please, share this!
