Recent videos on the YouTube channel featured a series titled "Childfree Dating." It was a 3-part conversation that discussed the triumphs and perils of dating while childfree.
With Valentine's Day swiftly approaching, and some people feeling a certain way about not being in a relationship, this topic is both relevant and time-appropriate.
Here are 3 ways to be happily single & childfree:
Don't Compare
They say comparison is the thief of joy. This statement reigns true for so many topics. On the topic of singleness, however, you should remember that you never know what goes on behind closed doors in some relationships. You could be comparing yourself to someone else's highlight reel. Be happy and content in your single, childfree season (and if it lasts longer than a season, be OK with that too).
Date Yourself
There's been a recent uptick in people choosing to date themselves, and there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with that. Dating yourself allows you to truly get to know who you are and it activates self-love. Plus, when you're childfree AND single, you can get up and go whenever and wherever you feel like it! Embrace that!
Discover What You TRULY Want
Again, dating yourself gives you the time and space to discover what it is that you truly want. After observing other people's relationships and by dating yourself, you might realize that the grass ain't always greener on the other side. Being single and childfree isn't the worst thing in the world. There's a certain level of freedom and peace that this lifestyle brings. Never feel down and out about being single and childfree.
These tips, in addition to content on the YouTube channel and within the 90-Day Childfree Journal, will help you on your path to becoming and remaining happily childfree.
