8 Things To Do When You Feel Like You Will Be Single Forever

We can’t always help our romantic situation. Some of us are blessed with the ability to attract pretty much everyone we set our sights on. Others, however, are doomed to go through life as an awkward mess feeling single forever, in the hopes that someone finds their awkwardness cute and adorable.

Those people are also the types that are usually single for pretty much ever. Either they can’t find someone they really like or they don’t really know HOW to find someone they like. Either way, they end up living life in Singlesville just peering over the hedge into Couples Town in the hopes of one day moving in that direction.

Even if being single is great most of the time, it can be rather lonely. Ultimately, pretty much everyone wants to find love in their life and someone they can grow old with. But if you’ve been single for SO long, it can feel as though you’ll be single forever.

If you’ve been single for far too long and are starting to believe you’ll be single forever, there are certain things you can do to forget all about that. In fact, there are a lot of things you can do that also increases your chances of finding someone that’s perfect for you.

# Take a solo vacation somewhere amazing

If there’s one thing about being single that overshadows the impending doom you feel like you’ll have to face with being single forever, it’s being able to take vacations anywhere and anytime you want.

So instead of wallowing about in your own misery, go take an incredible vacation somewhere you’ve always wanted to go. You never know when you’ll land yourself “the one” and can no longer travel across the world as you please.

# Go out with your friends and their significant others

Don’t shut down an invitation to spend time with your friends solely because they have a date and you don’t. Isolating yourself from them only makes you feel even worse about the fact you feel like you’ll be single forever.

# Stop looking for “the one” and just live your life

Most people who think they’ll be single forever spend every waking moment out and about searching for someone to call theirs. STOP IT! If you just let yourself be single and enjoy the time you have and forget about finding that special someone, they may just wander into your life anyways.

# Join a new club. Instead of sitting at home alone all the time, join a club

It can really be any club, a book club, a bowling league, or even a painting club. If you get out there and enjoy your time with other people, you’ll forget about the fact that you’re single.

# Pick up a new hobby

Just like you can join a new club, you can also pick up a new hobby to occupy your time and get your mind off of negative feelings about being single. Start rollerblading, knitting, or do something that makes you excited to get up in the morning.

# Go out to the bars or clubs alone

If you feel like you’ll be single forever simply because you’re the type that NEVER tries to get into a relationship or even meet people, then you have to go out by yourself.
Going to a bar or club alone helps you meet new people you otherwise never would have had the opportunity of talking to if you’re surrounded by all your friends.

# Introduce yourself to people

Don’t just go to the bar and sit at the end sipping a martini until that hot guy or girl across the way finally notices you and walks over. No. That’s not how it works. You have to put yourself out there and actually introduce yourself to people and you might just find someone worth your time.

# Practice talking to new people

If you’re the type that’s single because you can’t put two sentences together when you’re approached by someone attractive, then you have to practice.
Get in front of a mirror or even some friends and rehearse what you can say to people in order to increase your chances of not making a fool of yourself.
