The Single Girl Diaries | Here's To Being Forever Alone In 2016

Hello Lovelies! It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman must be in want of a partner. Or at least that's what the whole world seems to be telling us. There are those of us in amazing loved up relationships (totally not jealous, promise) and then there's us single ladies who are totally rocking that single thing - or at least in my case trying to. Now, I'm not going to lie and pretend that I wouldn't love to be in a relationship, because who am I kidding, I would. For as long as I can remember I've been a hopeless romantic, and it all started with Mr Darcy - thanks for the unrealistic expectations Austen! I'm that girl who cries at weddings, relentlessly rewinds rom coms to all the cute parts and doesn't bat an eyelid at the idea of being married to someone for years and years. 

So it will probably come as a surprise when I say that my New Year's Resolution is to embrace being single, and dare I say it stay single for the whole of 2016 (which knowing me won't be hard). Truth is I'm already tired of dating. I've had my fair share of awful dates, heartbreaks and truly unpredictable male behaviour and it's got to a point where it's actually getting ridiculous. Whoever said that women were the complicated ones obviously did not give men enough credit. For 2016 I wanted to give myself a break, after all I'm only 19 and I've already had way too much boy related stress for it to be worth it. So unless anyone absolutely amazing comes along, I'm adamant on staying single. But instead of having one big pity party about being 'forever alone', I decided to start a fun series about being the single girl talking about all the perks and adventures along the way. After all in the blogging world we are constantly bombarded with what appear to be 'perfect lives' and every now and then it's good to break that illusion and be honest. Hence me broadcasting that I'm single to the world, which will probably end up epically back-firing. 

First on the agenda of embracing my single life is taking advantage of all that free time and making my blog the best thing it can be. As you might have noticed I've even given my little corner of the internet a makeover to look that little bit more professional. I'm also working on doing some new outfit posts (yay) and pushing myself to get more and more confident. But that's it for now. Here's to 2016 and new beginnings. I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and enjoy the rest of your holiday!

Thought of the day: 'It is a truth universally acknowledged that when one part of your life starts going okay, another falls spectacularly to pieces' - Bridget Jones

Man crush: Aidan Turner (aka Poldark) in And Then There Were None. Seriously men that attractive should not be allowed to dress that well. HOTNESS OVERLOAD.

Perk of being single: Not worrying about how much I eat. Bring on the Christmas leftovers.

Thanks for reading lovelies! Do let me know if you want to see more of this series as it's so different to what I usually write!
