Today I’m going to write a blog post about how to be single because I’ve been traveling solo after a breakup.
- The truth about being single:
The reason I find my solo life very enjoyable is because I have finally learned how to say no to people that I don’t want to see.
I used to put up with my ex’s family and friends.
Frankly, I couldn’t stand many of those people.
But now I’m free. Totally free! Isn’t this liberating?!
When I say no to things that I don’t want to do, I am able to have the bandwidth to say yes to things that I actually want to do.
Now I can hold the boundary and keep my standards.
Going out with the same people, staying in the same boring job, being married to a lame person….
These are so dull and unmotivating. I want to create a life by design, not by default.
What about you?
- I need more ‘me time’, so I travel solo.
My ‘me time’ is so sacred and precious.
When I was in a relationship, my life was about my partner at the time. I rarely had any ‘me time’.
But now I’m single, so I can do whatever I want in my spare time – I can have proper ‘me time’ at last!
Honestly, there are very, vey few things that require a partner to be fully enjoyed. Spa appointments, upscale restaurants, movies …
All of these could be thoroughly enjoyed by single people.
When I travel solo, I meet many people.
I can date without needing a solid outcome.
I’m not asking “Is this person the one?”
No pressure, no stress, no worries.
Now I simply focus on learning something new about the person I’m spending my time with and choosing activities that are fun for me to do, even if I know I’m not going to marry that person.Why not relax and smell the roses?
“Now I am the creator of my life and I embrace good things that are happening to me. As I get older, my interests start to change, which is absolutely normal. That also means I can remain inspired because new experiences give me new inspiration.”
