In a world that glorifies “couple goals”, you might feel uncomfortable or lonely being single. Over at VICE,<\/a> their advice columnist asked experts for tips for actually enjoying it – and this tip was the best:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201dIt’s a naff word but a journey of self-discovery is a great and powerful opportunity,\u201d says life coach Katie Scrafton<\/a>. That\u2019s likely the main step to feeling better in this instance: Self-discovery. Remembering who you are, and getting back into loving yourself, independent of other people. <\/p>

Learning to enjoy single life isn\u2019t easy, but it\u2019s necessary. Not to be too deep, but we can\u2019t predict what\u2019ll happen around us \u2013 people come and go, relationships<\/a> and friendships fizzle out, sometimes people come back around, other times they don\u2019t. We can\u2019t really control it. What\u2019s guaranteed is, you\u2019re stuck with silly old fucking you, so you might as well do your best to enjoy your own company.<\/p>

Scrafton says to make a list \u201cof things that you really love to do, or haven’t done but feel you might enjoy\u201d. She\u2019ll often use \u201cthe marker of: when do I not check my phone?\u201d  The idea is you\u2019ll end up with a list of things to experience that\u2019ll reconnect you to yourself. <\/strong>Include \u201cguilty pleasures\u201d or those activities you\u2019ve always pondered but perhaps been a little too nervous to actually try. Anyway, if it feels proper cringe to mention your hobby to anyone, you can always keep it to yourself initially. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We love this idea. Finding things that make truly YOU happy, and then deep diving into those things solo – that’s how you truly make the most of #TheSingleLife. Of course, being single doesn’t mean you can’t spend a little one-on-one time with other singles – that’s what casual dating is all about!
