No one likes to be alone. It is no fun to sit around staring at the walls with no one to talk to. When you thought about your future as a bright-eyed sixteen year old you saw yourself as a blushing bride with plans to start a family. Now reality has hit you and you are realizing, you are getting older and that has not quite panned out. Don’t sweat it though. If you are one of those people who worry they will die alone, get over it! Stop throwing yourself a pity party and do something about it.

Do not sit around feeling sorry for yourself. This melancholy hole you are in is just not attractive. So you and your boyfriend broke up, you have had your time to mourn. Now get over it, and get out there to meet the next one. Life is way too short to mope around feeling worthless. You are the furthest thing from worthless, you are single. Your options are wide open, this is a time to soak in your freedom and enjoy it. If you are not ready to leave your home quite yet, at least join an online dating service. Gussy yourself up and take some sexy pictures. As soon as you post your profile your self-esteem will get a huge boost with all the chat requests!

At the very least if you are in a funk go out with your friends and live it up. You can even look up old flames and reignite that fire that had you going years ago. Who cares if it isn’t for the long haul; at least you can show everyone that you’ve still got it! You really do not want to sit around and sulk, that is the worst thing for your soul. You will not be alone forever, and you should look in the mirror and tell yourself so.

You usually find the person perfect for you when you quit looking. You need to stop obsessing and just let the universe take care of the rest. No matter how old you get, you are never too old for love. You are never too old to have fun, and you are never too old to date. The minute you stop saying no one will have you for one reason or another, you will have more dates then you know what to do with. Doesn’t that sound better than wondering what might have been? That is what I thought; now get off the couch, throw away the junk food, and get out into the world. You will feel so much better about life, I guarantee it. There is a whole wide world of possibilities out there, just keep an open mind.
