Conquering Loneliness
Loneliness is one of the biggest battles as a single woman living alone. Here are some ways to avoid loneliness:
- Invite a friend or family member to go on a picnic, or to the zoo, or to a museum. Be creative.
- Take a class (NOT online)
- Join a bowling league (or any sport or other activity where you have to leave your home)
- Host a girl’s night out (or in); invite more than just single women; hire a babysitter for those with children & the dad’s will also get a night out. Have a crafting party or a spa party or a movie night. Have lots of food; have a few games and activities and visiting. This is good to get to know many different ladies in your life ~ you’ll have a wonderful group of ladies to advise & pray for you when needed.
- Spend a weekend helping out in a soup kitchen; go visit the elderly or housebound; be a “big sister”, etc.
- Adopt a pet (a dog ~ you’ll have to be proactive in its care ~ take it for a walk or to the dog park). You’ll also get lots of love!
