There is nothing more important than being able to enjoy your own company. If you do not enjoy your own company you will never feel loveable. And you need to feel loveable, whether or not you are in a relationship.
Being okay about being alone is okay - being closed to a relationship is not. When you are closed to relationship, you have convinced yourself there are no good men out there. But there are good men out there just like there are good women and sometimes we find each other and sometimes we don't. And there are many "gentlemen" still out there. We teach men how to treat us. If we want our men to be strong, we must be willing to touch our softness. It is the polarity that creates the chemistry.
Yes, the dating world is fraught with perils, but so is life. You need discrimination - razor sharp. But mostly, you need to be open, open to life and whatever it has to offer. If that is friends, and museums and a glass of wine (no book clubs), that's terrific, and if it's a night alone enjoying your own company - even better.
The world is what you make it. It is not a couple's world anymore than it belongs to you. Claim it. Do not let anyone else define you. The relationship you have with yourself is the one that makes all the others tick.
