Appreciate the little things in life, look at what you have here and now. You are a whole person by yourself, you have your interests and your passions and have people around you that you love.
That's so many things that can make you feel whole
Well, being engaged is great, but there are many things you can do while single that won't be able to do when engaged. For example: use your time at your convenience, spend less, focus on self-growth, less arguments (they are unavidable on any relationship), more time to love yourself.
Many theories out there say that happiness should come from inside not outside.
S you, by ourself, should have all that you need to be happy. Once you are, you just share your ahppiness with the other person, but not look on someone what cprresponds to you. Who would go in a relationship only just to make someone else happy? That is very tiring...
You can love yourself as much as you can, and spend more time with the people who you love. We love you
I've struggled with this in my life as well. It's led me to 2 divorces & a trail of broken hearts. The key for me was to be comfortable with myself. As soon as I discovered a me I liked it became much easier to not seek external validation.
Take some time to find yourself. Take that time to pamper yourself and engage in activities you enjoy.
You should enjoy being single! Because you get more time to work on yourself and you’ll also know that your true love is out there waiting!

At first it may seem impossible to juggle being single, but in a way it’s good for you. Spend some time bettering yourself and feeling confident and good again

think about the benefits. you don’t have to worry about someone getting upset if you have opposite gender friends. there’s many benefits, that’s just one.
How can you feel happy about being single? You can feel happy by focusing on yourself because this time in your life you get to understand your likes and dislikes and figure out what you want in life.
There are plenty of things to be happy about when you're single (: There is no reason to be dependent on someone else when you, yourself are an amazing person. The right individual will come eventually. Some of the things you can do are 1. Go pamper yourself. You have your whole life ahead of you! 2. Meet tons of people. When you are in a relationship you can't flirt with that cute guy at the coffee shop you saw the other day! Get out there!
Embrace the love you have for yourself. You can’t pour from any empty cup. You have to love yourself in all that are you alone to be able to love someone else as a couple
Being single is a great opportunity to get to know yourself and grow as a person! It also allows you the freedom of doing whatever you want and not having to worry about how another person feels about it. It can be very freeing.

You can live our life, every moment to the fullest and completely by your choice. You also learn to love yourself and you create a bond with yourself, inside and out.

You need to love yourself they way you are, and not let it bring you down. Just think that "If I was in a relationship right now, I would be doing something else, something I didn't want to do. But I'm single, so I can do whatever I want!"

Well, you can talk to as many people as you want without someone holding you back, you can openly stare at hot people and you don’t have to be tied down by a relationship x
Self love is the best thing in world. Love fades, life dies, relation ends but self don't leave you alone anyday!
That isn't an easy task and it take some time to find out how being single can benefit you. You can take it as a curve of being with yourself and taking care of your self and people you love, cultivate things hobbies and dreams and when you will find someone you can focus on relationship.
There are many greta things about being single. For example, you have more time to spend with the people you love and to do the things you love. You also have more time to build yourself to be a better person, which can sometimes be ignored when your in a relationship.
I think you have to be happy on your own before stepping into any relationships. So, being happy single is a must. And I think it has a lot to do with your purpose in life. Once you find what it is and live your life according to it, I'm sure you will find this feeling of satisfaction and wholeness and you will feel happy.
You're single.. enjoy life, go out, have fun, hang out with your friends.. theres so much to do.. you dont have to be in a relationship to be happy
Do kind things for yourself. Remember what makes you unique, without someone else to help you identify yourself. Do things that make you happy, and don't forbid yourself to do something that you think you shouldn't do alone, like see a movie or go out to eat. Enjoy yourself and your relationships with your friends and family. Express yourself in your own way.
Being single can be a great time, this is because you can do what you want without have anyone to say you can’t, if you are happy being single your likely to show this on the outside and people are more likely to be happy around you

Look for the positives in being single and avoid thinking or lingering on thoughts of the bad negative things associated with being single. Try to enjoy your time doing things you love, learn more about something you're interested in, take on a new hobby or even make new friends. Find things to bring you happiness each day.

Remember this: you don't have to tell anyone what you're doing constantly. You can be your own person and make your own decisions without relying on the input of someone else. If you want to go out with friends, you don't need anyone's approval. I know it's difficult to not have someone else there, but the right person will find you when it's the right time. Enjoy this time on your own while it lasts!
think of all the things you can do as a single person how there are no boundaries in what you do and actually take this opportunity to develop your self
As much as it may be hard remember that it's ok to love yourself and discover who you are. it seems difficult at the moment but it will come with time.
Focus on yourself. You are so important and you don't need a partner to complete you, or make you happy. Be you, because you're amazing!
Take up a new hobby. Go out and spoil yourself for the day. Remember to love yourself before anyone else. Remember that you are worth more. You are worth more than any material in existence. Take care of yourself, let everyone else worry about theirs.

You can use this time to grow as a person the way you want to grow. It can be anything from dying your hair crazy colors to finding stress relievers. I personally know people who go to the gym because they feel less stressed afterwards. Starting new hobbies could be it!

Realize that being single is better than getting into a toxic or unhappy relationship.
People tend to love being with other people they think they are their halves but you are complete and you are not a half and you dont lack anything. You may try to see what makes you happy and try to explore and discover yourself and try to get to know yourself. You are a whole deep world so don't say "i know myself well " and if you doubt being yourself and you think that what makes you single or that you are not good enough .well If you don't love yourself no one will love you .
