For those of you who are single and sad that you’re not in a relationship, I’m here to remind you that you don’t need a relationship to be happy. I know there are times when you see couples and think, “When is that going to happen to me?" Or you watch movies where the main characters find each other and fall in love and you start to think that love is impossible. However, being in a relationship shouldn’t be the only reason for happiness.

A lot of people make it seem as though being in a relationship is the best thing that could ever happen to them. It’s fine to be in a relationship and those who have found their soulmates should be happy, . however, you should keep in mind that it’s the not the end of the world if you don’t have a partner.

You don’t need to be in a relationship to be happy. For those of you who feel lonely or think that you need that special someone, you’re wrong. Remember that there are other people who love you. You have a family who would do anything to make you happy and friends who love you and want to make memories with you.

You don’t need to be in a relationship to have self-worth.. You are valuable and most certainly do not need anyone else to validate that. Whenever you are feeling lonely, just know that you are an amazing person and don’t need to be dependent on someone to confirm your importance .

Something that could help you boost your self-confidence is picking up a hobby. This could be reading a book, writing, drawing, exercising, etc. You don’t need someone to complete you.You are your own person.

Finding a hobby will allow you to get to know yourself. This is the time to fall in love with yourself and figure out what you really want. This is the time to learn more about yourself and understand what you like and what you don’t. Being in a relationship won’t fill the void that you have in your heart. It won’t make up for the lack of self-esteem you may have. So instead of focusing on what you don’t have, focus on yourself and bettering yourself.

The most important relationship you can have is with yourself. No one will understand or love you better than you understand and love yourself. You don’t need a relationship to be happy because at the end of the day, you’re the only person who knows you the best. Being in a relationship won’t complete you.

Once you learn to love yourself and know your self-worth, you won’t ever need a relationship to feel “whole." Once you figure yourself out and understand yourself better, you’ll learn that you’re the only person who can complete yourself. Don’t be hard on yourself just because you’re not in a relationship. Don’t be hard on yourself just because you haven’t met that special someone yet. Focus on yourself because you should always come first. How can someone else understand you if you don’t even know yourself? The same thing goes for love. The right person will come along, but the most important thing right now is for you to get familiar with yourself. You will come to find that more than anyone else, you will find the ways to make yourself the most happy.
