You haven't just heard it once, but you've heard it a million times. So called "cuffing season" is upon us, and suddenly everyone is freaking out over being single the closer we get to the holiday season. Instead of sitting around and feeling sorry for yourself, think about all the things you need instead of a boyfriend.
A good night's sleep
A vacation
A snack
Pizza
A night hanging out with your friends in pajamas
Brunch
To start keeping a journal
A whole box of your favorite chocolate
A spa-like bath
New lipstick
A date with your mom
To play your music as loud as possible
Ben & Jerrys
A Mexican food themed night
A nap
To dance around in your room
A new Pinterest board
A new hair do
Another credit card
To live your life
To have fun
The ability to not have to share food
A date night with yourself
A picnic
Taco Tuesday
A stroll through Target
To go to a farmer's market
A new book to read
A savings account
To go on a walk
Concert Tickets
To rearrange your room
To purge your closet
A budget plan
To go grocery shopping
To take up yoga
To try new cuisines
A throwback playlist
The confidence to not depend on someone for happiness
Instead of freaking out as the weather gets cooler, think about the more important things you need than that guy who won't text you back.
