1.
Stop daydreaming about your exes.
Jake Nackos
Stop wishing they would walk back into your life and give you another chance.
Accept that theyre out of your world forever and move forward without thoughts of them weighing you down.
Spend some weekends alone.Even once youre in a relationship, you arent going to spend twenty-four hours together.
you oughta learn to embrace your loneliness.
Find ways to feel comfortable in the silence.
Learn to enjoy yourmetime instead of trying to fill the void with any random person.
Start thinking of yourself as beautiful.You shouldnt need a partner to make you feel beautiful.
Your opinion of yourself shouldnt change based on whether or not someone complimented you that day.
you gotta gain confidence on your own.
Prioritize yourself.You dont want to lose yourself in a relationship.
You dont want to end up putting yourself last so you can put your partner first.
You should start prioritizing your happiness now so its easier for you to do once youre in a relationship.
Remember, its not selfish to practice self-care.
Make yourself orgasm.you’re gonna wanna learn the way your body works.
you better learn what turns you on and turns you off.
That way, once youre in a relationship, it’s possible for you to teach your person.
Youll have an easier time getting on the same wavelength when you actually know what you want.
6.Speak authentically.Stop censoring yourself.
Stop saying what you think is expected of you.
If you want to find real love, you cannot play pretend.
You cannot be an idealized version of yourself.
you’re gonna wanna show the real you.
Love yourself.You should date someone because they enhance your life, not because they make your life worth living.
Before you get into a serious relationship, you should learn to love yourself.
Go out to eat on your own.Or go to the movies on your own.
Take yourself on some sort of date.
Remind yourself you dont need a relationship so you can do the things you love.
you’re able to do them for yourself.
Cultivate healthy friendships.When you date someone, they should be your best friend first.
to get to practice your communication and listening skills, double-check you give your friends everything they deserve.
Write down your goals.The first step to completing your goals is recognizing them.
Write them down on paper or somewhere in your phone.
see to it you dont lose track of them once you enter a relationship.
confirm you never give up your dreams for love.
confirm your passion outshines everything else.
