Dating yourself isn’t a bad idea: in fact, it’s a good one. When you date yourself, you learn how to be comfortable in your own skin, you live a much happier life and it becomes easier for someone else to date you, as explained in the article: reasons you should date yourself.
Do you date yourself? Do you think it isn’t worth it? It’s really worth it; dating yourself would make you love yourself the more, and how can you love someone else when you can’t even love yourself.
Now this is how to date yourself.
1. TAKE YOURSELF OUT ON A DATE
Have you ever taken yourself out on a date? I mean just you and no one else? Learn to take yourself on dates, enjoy the moment you share with yourself and enjoy the calmness that comes with being alone.
2. GIVE YOURSELF A TREAT
Learn to spoil yourself sometimes; give yourself a treat, do something special for yourself that would make you smile. Do not be the type that your life revolves just around work; do not live a life of work, work and work. Give yourself a treat.
3. APPRECIATE YOURSELF
You can appreciate yourself for a good deed done or an achievement. Simply buy yourself a bottle of wine, play some good music that you love, and celebrate yourself. You deserve it.
4. DRESS YOUR BEST
Are you the type that waits till you are going out on a date with someone you admire before dressing nice? That shouldn’t be the case; learn to look good, hot and attractive for yourself. You know that feeling that comes when you know you are well dressed? That’s a feeling of satisfaction, confidence and that you are comfortable with yourself.
5. DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY
Know the things that make you happy and try to do them. Find out what makes you happy and what makes you excited and do them.
6. GO SEE A MOVIE
Of course, it’s mostly couples and lovebirds you would find in a cinema hall, but this shouldn’t deter you. Having you tried watching a movie you love by yourself? It gives a certain thrill that you would never ever get as a couple; not that watching as a couple isn’t thrilling, but watching a movie alone is different. This would also teach you to be comfortable with yourself even when you are surrounded with people who are a couple.
Don’t sulk in bed all day because you don’t have a partner, or because your past relationship(s) didn’t work out well; date yourself, and you wouldn’t only live a happier life, but you would be a better relationship partner for it.
