Date yourself

You don’t have to be in a relationship with another person to have a good time. Many relationship experts highly recommend dating yourself to singles and people in relationships alike. Dating one’s self can look very different from person to person, but some of the ways that you do can about doing so include dining alone, going to the movies alone, engaging in self-pleasure, and pampering yourself.

“Consider your ideal date, and then go do it,” Alexis Moreno, consulting psychologist and health correspondent at DC Radio told Shape. “If it’s cooking or going out to dinner, what would it be and where would you go? What music would be playing? What scents do you enjoy? If it’s a movie, what’s one that you love, would want to share, or haven’t seen yet and wish you had? Take the time to truly explore what romance means to you.”
