I keep hearing women say that they're tired of being the single friend, that they feel lonely and worthless since they don't have a man. They're jealous of their friends and family members who are in seemingly happy relationships. They wish they're the ones getting engaged. They imagine that once they meet that HVM, they'll finally feel whole. Their life will finally be colorful and amazing.

You don’t need a man to save you from your loneliness. You need friends if you want that human connection.

That... usually doesn't happen. Women who wait for a man to make them complete internally often end up in codependent relationships with people who take them for granted. They're so desperate to be loved that they'll accept bad behavior from their partner. They feel so incomplete that they'd rather be with someone and be unhappy than be alone and at peace.

Please don't be like that. Instead, I recommend that you do the following:

  • Act as if you'll be single forever. Don't wait to be happy until you find a boyfriend. Don't wait to be fulfilled until you find someone to love you. Start living your best life now.
  • If you're lonely, that means you're craving human connection, and you can get that from friendships and family. You have to be fulfilled emotionally first through friends and family. It's not going to end well if you still feel unsatisfied emotionally when you're dating.
  • If you don't have close friends and your social life sucks, you need to focus on fixing that before you even think of dating men. What's the point dating a man when you don't even have friends? Also, if you don't have friends, you'll depend on the men you date for validation and emotional connection. You'll put up with bullshit just because he listens to your problems every now and then so he can get the chance to sleep with you.

So in short, if you're feeling lonely, go make some friends and work on genuinely being happy on your own, even when you're single.

Q: What are your favorite ways to stop yourself from feeling lonely? What do you tell yourself?
