When the month of February comes some single dread the thought of being the butt of jokes. Everyone in the house, in the office or your attached friends would give you that knowing look. Some downright obvious and give you a pat on your should as if telling you how "unfortunate" it must be for you...
Don't be sad... you are not alone! And being alone doesn't mean you are miserable. I once read in a magazine that a new term was created by author and entrepreneur Sasha Cagen = " QUIKRYALONE". It refers to a person with the capacity to enjoy single life ( but is not opposed in a relationship ) and prefers to be alone rather than date just for the sake of being part of a couple.
Whether you are quirkyalone or just someone who needs some moment, It is best to focus on what you can do for a change. To name a few:
1. Enrol in a Class - be it taekwando or culinary but it must be something you feel like getting into. You dont need approval of anyone, just do it.
2. Join Community Service - the best way to use your valuable time withouthaving to worry that someone might want you to be at their side at a given time.
3. Do what you always wanted to do - If you always dreamt of travelling solo or wanted to discover some eerie place...be daring! Or if you just want to go out of time & be spontaneous... go for it.
