There's much to be said about singlehood, and even more to be said for how to fix this status placed upon us gals. We're told exactly how to feel about being single and what to do about this predicament we've found ourselves in. On the one hand, there's a ton of pride in choosing this and remaining therein, but on the other hand, what about those who want a partner already? It seems that any way you spin it, there's little wiggle room in trying to find the right amount of satisfaction in your decision. Whichever category you fall into, know that you're a badass, sexy queen that deserves to be happy no matter what.

Take Yourself Out on Dates…Often

When they said, "There's a whole world out there", they were not kidding. There truly is an entire universe filled with promise, opportunities, museums, new places to discover. There's a reason why solo travel has become so popularized among single women, because it's an absolute pleasure to get to know yourself in a new setting and come across new art, a band, or awesome coffee shop on your own. Your memories of these things looking back won't be tethered to anyone else but yourself. That's pretty cool if you ask me.

Develop a Routine

You've seen those videos where some adorable goddess relays her skincare routine sitting in front of her ring-light. I'm not talking about this kinda routine, (though you're fully entitled to do the same). Start with something small: change your morning alarm to a soothing sound. Drink some water before chugging your cup o' Joe. Find a few daily stretches that are just for you. Create both a going-to-work playlist and a coming-home one. But most importantly: give yourself time to adapt to daily, weekly, and even monthly routines.

Get Flirty

This is the only time in your life where you can not only get your flirt on, but improve your flirt game at the same time. It's truly a work of art. Some would even go so far to say a sport. Finding that cute someone, making eye contact once, twice, thrice. Moving towards them or having them come towards you while pretending they've taken you off-guard. Now comes the real fun: conversation. Don't limit yourself to just flirty banter via hotel bars; dating apps are one of the best ways to release your inner flirt queen without the physical obligation of getting dolled up and wasting expensive foundation. Three cheers for flirty Saturday nights in your sweats and scrunchies!

Join A Book Club... Or A Wine Club

It's wine o'clock somewhere, right? Or Wilde o'clock, (as in Oscar), depending on which pastime speaks more to you. Book clubs and wine clubs are often portrayed as these pretentious, snooty gatherings hosted and attended by wine moms or rich bitches. In reality, there are tons of single groups that get together to discuss a fine Sauvignon-Blanc or the newest Brene Brown release. There are even movie maniacs, comic book nerds, and food aficionados just waiting to drink up your expertise with their own niche clubs. Go out and find them!

Appreciate Your Singlehood

Remember that not everyone loves being in a relationship or confined to obligations they jumped into too quickly. Appreciate the little things your singlehood provides you with. Like the freedom to do whatever you want whenever you want to do it. And come to think of it, ultimate freedom isn't such a little (or bad) thing. It's what most people chase after!

Strengthen Your Connections

Make all the plans! Tighten your bond with your existing friends and fam. Rediscover what your girlfriends' interests are, memorize your parents' birth dates if you haven't already, text them little nuggets of love here and there. It helps hold these connections close and serves as a reminder for the people you DO have in your life, not those that are missing from it.
