Not Dating? What You Can Enjoy Right Now

By Shelly Davidson

While walking through a crowd, you hear the chatter and laughter all around. You see couples walking by smiling and holding hands. You wonder to yourself, how did they meet? Did they meet at the grocery store, while during laundry or are they result of an internet dating connection?

Just about now you're wishing that you were part of a twosome. You're not alone; almost everyone has felt this way at one point or another. Along with this wish they wonder why they haven't found that special someone yet. Because that's the way things are supposed to go, right? You go to school, start a career, fall in love.

Along with that, many people even hope to get married one day and maybe have children. Perfect right? Then in an instant your plans seems to change. One thing to remember is not give up. If you keep positive and remain aggressive, it will be only a matter of time before you meet someone and have the life you want.

In the interim, it is important to try to enjoy where you are at the time. If you are single, this is the time to do all things that you would not be able to do if you where tied down and married. As a single person you can do the following things without consulting anyone:

1.You can take off at a moment's notice. Picture this; your best friend was able to get tickets for a concert that you really wanted to see. You couldn't get tickets. She's decided to surprise you and has invited you along. See? No one's feelings will get hurt if you just pick up and go.

2. You can date as many people as you like. As a single man or woman you can date a few people at a time until you make the choice to settle down with one person.

3. You don't have to share your living and sleeping space. Nor do you have to share the TV remote and no one hogs your blankets. You can please yourself with music and stay up as late as you want.

4. Accept party invitations or happy hour events at anytime without having to call to let your partner know where you are for the evening.

5. Though this will depend on your budget, you can cook or eat out as often as you'd like. Pleasing yourself also holds true for tidying up and cleaning, though I'm not suggesting you let your place become a dump.

Sure, the above points may sound selfish, but knowing what you can do when you're single will help you adjust you mindset after you become involved with someone. When you do meet someone special, chances are you won't mind so much about having to let someone know where you are and what you're doing.

It could also help you make the decision as to whether or not you are ready to date at all. Dating when with the right person can be an amazing experience, but you should try to enjoy and make the most of your single life while waiting to meet the love of your life. - 31991
