DATE YOURSELF

Whether you're single, dating around, or in a relationship, you should date yourself regardless. When you envision yourself with your partner(s), where do you enjoy spending your time? How do you enjoy spending your time, what exactly are you doing? Whatever it may be, go out and fulfill those visions, for yourself. Your relationship status shouldn't determine whether you go on dates or not, you have permission to date yourself and bring that loving energy into your life.

Yesterday I brought myself on the most lovely date. I went for a walk around Mount Pleasant, then stopped to eat at Lotus Seed Vegan, a restaurant I've been wanting to try for awhile (I ordered the Ahimi Poke Bowl - highly recommend!). Afterwards I checked out some flash-books at a tattoo shop, and ended the day by ordering myself a latte and drinking it down by the water. Showing yourself love is so valuable, and dating yourself is just one of the ways you can do that.

Plus, if you bring yourself on a date in a public place, doing something that brings you joy, you may run into people who are taking themselves on dates too. Your elevated mood helps you create a warm and welcoming energy, and creates an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals. Dating yourself is showing yourself love, but it can also result in surrounding yourself with the loving energy of others.

Now, go take yourself on a date ♡.
