Emily and i are enjoying our single in the city part of our lives but honestly is it being embraced? She got burned and she got burned bad now she needs to do what all of us girls need to learn to do and that is survive the nyc dating pool alive.
she just plagued me with the question should i change my yoga studio??? she goes to a place in chelsea so its mainly gay guys and girls. Not a place to find a single boy toy!! My advice to her is YES!! take your yoga mat a few blocks up where boys like girls. You have to put yourself on the field to be in the game.
honestly the game can be exhausting especially when your friends around you are also single and clueless about nyc dating and the rest of them already have relationships.
My dad warned me long before I moved here New York is a lonely city. I believed him but i didn't imagine it would be. I'm one of the lucky ones this city houses my family and closest friends. But still at times that isn't enough. And although single is the way to be these days for some of us it isn't.
Emily is now curious on other ways to change her routine to increase the chances of bumping into mr perfect or at least MR right now. I explained to her she's gonna have to sitting home alone on a friday night dosen't make cupid's job easier.
Oh new york can you throw my girl emily something to stay positive about?

It's important to meet someone who shares your interests. If you love yoga, then a yoga studio. If you love painting, painting classes. etc etc What's the probability that you're going to meet someone who enjoys art, reading, yoga, etc. at a club when you and everyone around has been downing drinks all night long?
A couple of things to keep in mind:
This is a wonderful time of exploration and self-discovery. The focus should be falling in love with yourself.
Only when you stop wanting something does it actually fall into your lap. Otherwise, you're going to go to great lengths and chase something that is going to elude you. You will either get frustrated by the chase OR you risk putting yourself in a dangerous position just because you are eager to make something happen.
Some of the universe's greatest gifts are those that don't happen. Although you may have your sites set on someone or something, you must trust that your guiding life force is holding out because something better is just up the road.
The goal is the journey, not the destination. If you had a perfect mate, a perfect life, everything you want in terms of your career, etc., then what would be the point of continuing? We are so eager to rush through the book of our lives, only to get to the end and wish we had more time.
Just a couple of thoughts.
xoxo
