How can I feel happy about being single?

Being single can make you feel lonely and like you're unloved, but this gives you more time on focusing on friends and family. You are able to take up new hobbies, focus on your personal interests, go on adventures and not feel like you're neglecting your partner. You can spend time building better relationships with your family and friends so that you're able to have a good, healthy support network.

Enjoy life, find a purpose and do something that makes you happy. Find out more about yourself and what activities do you like. Busy yourself and most importantly love yourself.

Pay more attention to yourself. Relationships oftentimes cause a lot of stress on both parties involved. A good way to think about a break up is, "Now I can go to the mall" or "Now I can hang out with my friends". It can be refreshing to take care of yourself a little more. If you're a girl, perhaps a makeover, a chick-flick marathon, or just a good book could be your getaway. If you're a guy, maybe a night with the guys, a video game night, or maybe, once again, just a good book would be a nice getaway.

Just look at the fact from a different angle - try to see the positives, what it brings. You are on your own, free to do anything (legal, haha). Don't be so pesimist about being a single, there is a whole bunch of people single on this planet and yet they are happy too :)

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

You should be happy whether you are in a realationship or not, you have friends and family who love you and being happy isn't only about love, it's about what you do and who you help. Everyone is happy inside.

Spend time with yourself, get to know yourself, recognise the ways in which you can make yourself happy and be your own fulfillment. Being single isn't a death sentence like how most people make it out to be, but it isn't easy to get to a place of realising that. It requires work and honesty with yourself in the understanding of yourself, in particular the deconstruction of why you feel the want or need to be in a relationship.

Take the time to LOVE YOURSELF! CARE FOR YOU! MAKE YOURSELF HAPPY! This time is all about self love!

By believing that you're enough. And that you don't particularly 'need' someone to be happy and satisfied in your life. One find day, your world will collide with someone else's, and you'll fall in love. And maybe then, you'll just choose to be with him/her, because you 'want' him/her, not because you 'need' him/her.

This may seem like one of those cliche things that people say, but being single makes you free to do anything and everything! Most people have a hard time having a life out of their relationship, and being single gives you exactly that. You can go out with your friends, explore and meet new people, or you can just be at home read a book or watch TV, it's all up to YOU!!
