I don’t know about you but I love dressing up and going out for date night. I enjoy trying new things and sharing the experience with my loved one. Whenever I see something new, I immediately want to try it. I always say “next time I go on a date, I should try that”
Here is the thing; after my last relationship with the person I thought was the love of my life (that is a different story for another day 😉); I went through a dark time. I thought I would never be happy again. Yes, yes I know. It is pretty dramatic but a girl is allowed to go through a dramatic phase once in a while 🤷🏾♀️.
After a while, I took charge and decided to do all the date night ideas I had put on the back burner for the perfect moment. Ladies and gentlemen, that’s how self-date night was invented.
What do you do on these date nights you may ask? Well, absolutely anything you want to do! You want to dress up; make a reservation at a fancy restaurant, call an uber because you deserve to be driven; and go on that date! This is the time to be selfish and put yourself first; do what you enjoy and reflect.
For me, a self-date night varies from day to day. One day I may order sushi, make my favorite drink and set it up on my balcony for a romantic sunset dinner. Another night, I may dress up in my sexy black dress and enjoy my evening. It doesn’t take much, just do it with serious intentions to date yourself. The How is up to you. All I ask is to give it a try once and let me know how it goes.
