I am such an introvert. I love spending time with my self. I speak to my self, I sometimes even give my self silly advises. This might sound crazy to you if you are an extrovert, but I am pretty sure that introverts can relate.
I am an introvert that likes to go out and have some fun. Now and then, I take my self out for a good treat. I love solo dates, they are so peaceful and therapeutic. Whenever I go on a solo date, I always learn something new about my self and learn a new interest. I fell in love with reading books through solo dates, I fell in love with art through solo dates, I even started to listen to Dani Leigh's music through solo dates.
Enjoying your own company is a big flex. This actually shows the level of maturity and self love. Imagine spending your hard earned money on your self, going to places that genuinely make you happy by your self and enjoying your favourite meal all by your self while you in a good mood all by your self.
Here are some solo dates ideas you might want to try
1.Going to neighbourhoods market
Neighborgoods market is my favourite place to be on a Saturday. I love the music, the food and the fashion. I know the whole idea of a solo date is for to spend some time with your self and yes, you can do just that at neighbourgoods. You can be in the present of many people and still be by your self. When you get there, just grap something to eat or/ and drink, find a comfy spot to chill and enjoy your self. I swear, you will not regret it.
2. Visit art exhibition/ galleries
Visiting an art exhibition will be a great idea for a solo date. Art is very therapeutic and can uplift your mood. You don't have to buy any artwork. Just go there to see artworks and somehow learn about art. If you have never been to an exhibition before, try it.
Here are some of the art galleries you might want to visit
• Good man Gallery (163 Jan smut Avenue)
•Johannesburg Art Gallery
•The Melrose Gallery
3. Coffee shop
A coffee shop ranks high on my solo date rada. I usually visit coffee shops when I want to read a new book. If you want to try this one out, take an interesting book with you. If you don'tt like to read books, take a magazine if not then don't do it. Or do it and look crazy.
4. Museum
Museum are like art galleries. The main idea for you to visit the museum should be to learn. When you go the museum please try to put your phone aside because it can become a distraction. Make sure you learn as much as you can. This will boost your self esteem and add up to your knowledge about history, art, and anything you wanted to learn about.
5.movies
I don't reallylove movies. In fact I hardly ever watch movies, and I will never to watch a movie for some me date. However this could be a great idea for those who love movies. Choose a film that you will like to watch and go watch it. Trust me, it will be fun.
6. Take a joy ride
This one is obviously for people with cars. Just drive around the city while listening to your favourite album. Stop at an eatery to grab something to eat or drink and continue driving around. Do Not eat/ drink while driving. Please promise me that you will not do a joy ride in the township because there is no peace there.
7. Staycation
This one is my favourite. For this one, just book your self at your favourite hotel for a weekend. Enjoy the leisure, enjoy the food and drinks, enjoy the peace of mind, enjoy the treat enjoy the comfy mattress and sheets. Just enjoy each and every moment and then go back home.
8.visit a spar
Experience the soft life. Book your self at your favourite spa, get the massage, do your nails release the tension, relax and appreciate life.
9. Go for ice cream
For once just be a naughty person and forget about cheat your healthy died. Every now and then ice cream is good for your mood and your body.
When you decide to do a solo date, put away your phone because it can be a distraction to yourself. The whole idea for a solo date is for you to enjoy your own company and reflect on your self while having fun.
