Wish You Had A Quality Man In Your Stocking This Year?
Holidays are tough for singles, especially when you’re over 50. It seems like everyone out there is a couple or a family celebrating the holidays together… and what’s even harder is they all look so happy.
You end up feeling like you’re the only one in the world left out of all this holiday cheer.
That’s because we can paint a picture in our heads of the only way we truly believe our holidays should be… a handsome man at our side as we open gifts and celebrate the beginning of a new year.
These can be lonely times for you if the only way the holiday season can be meaningful and fun is with a guy in your life.
So this year… if you’re not dating someone, how about giving yourself a break? See if you can figure out a way to turn those holiday blues into holiday happiness without a guy in your life.
Here are 5 ideas to get you started…
Holiday Happiness #1 – Pamper Yourself
This year, why don’t you ask your family and friends for gifts that are going to allow you to feel pampered, as in massages, manicures, pedicures or facials? Let someone take care of you for a couple of hours.
And remember you are sexiest and most desirable to a man when you feel good about you. And who doesn’t feel great after a soothing massage or a new nail color?
Holiday Happiness #2 – Go Out And Have A Good Time With Your Girlfriends
Start by making a list of every unattached woman you know.
Next, pick up the phone to see if one of them is free to go to a movie or dinner.
I used to have a single friends folder that I could go to whenever I felt like doing an activity but didn’t want to do it alone.
Start your own today and use it now during the holiday season to get yourself out of the house and into the holiday cheer.
Holiday Happiness #3 – Start Putting Your Dating Fairy Godmothers To Work For You!
During this time of year with parties happening everywhere you turn, most of us come in contact with more people than usual.
Choose 5 friends and ask each one to keep their eyes open for a great, single guy they might be able to fix you up with. He could be at their office party or their yoga class.
Remember, friends forget you are single so you need to keep reminding them to always be on the lookout for a great match for you.
Holiday Happiness #4 – Do Something Crazy, Like Book A Cruise With Your Sister, Friends, or Family
It’s nice to have a man in our lives, but we can have fun with or without one.
Treat yourself to a winter vacation to give you something to look forward to. Cruises can be relatively inexpensive these days, so what’s your excuse?
Okay, you won’t be watching the sunset with a guy but you can be having a good time, laughing with your friends and who knows… There might be a great single guy on that ship just waiting to meet you.
Holiday Happiness #5 – Get Online And Start Looking For Your New Guy Tonight!
Men are online at all hours of the day and night. You can always find someone to chat with whether or not you end up dating him.
For fun…try a niche dating site or go on one of the free ones like Plenty of Fish (and yes, there are plenty of quality fish for you to choose from on there)!
So as you can now hopefully see, while waiting to find Mr. Right, there are still plenty of ways for you to have fun.
Be creative and get the wheels moving. Start thinking about all the ways you can still have fun this holiday season.
Post your comments here and let me know what you decide to do.
Wishing you happy holidays with lots of happiness and joy in your life!
Until next time~

Just saw at work dude that cheated on me with his latest conquest walking across campus. Wish he’d have the decency to keep her at home, away from MY place of work. When I met my husband of 12 years, he had an ex that he broke up with months before going out with me. We both were always very concious of events she may want to go to, skipping them out of respect for her feelings. I never, ever, was anywhere near her place of business. I simply no longer wish to live in a world that cares so little about the feelings of others. Idea number 6: Ignore them. Money really short, no men of any quality here, no men on line, no dating fairy godmothers plus again no men for them to fix me up with anyway. gonna go deep, deep, into the backcountry and hide. We unintentional singles, especially those of us without family or loved ones, should not be expected to even acknowledge the holidays, we are allowed to ignore them completely. A time where one is forced to deal with the holidays yet one is not allowed to participate even remotely in the way one would want to. Sorry to whine but that’s how I feel.
