1. Focus on family.

Boyfriends and girlfriends and yes, even husbands and wives may come and go, but your family is forever. If it’s been a minute since you last touched basis with the fam, now’s the perfect time to catch up! They’ll be glad to hear from you and before you know it, you’ll forget all about what’s his (or her) face?

2. Don’t stop looking.

So what if you’re single this year? Your life is not over and there’s always tomorrow, next week, next month and next year. It’s never too late to find that special someone and bring them home to your family for the holidays. Trust us on this one, OK?

3. Live it up.

Single this year? Don’t worry about it! Instead, refocus your attention to all the pros of being single for the holidays: no stressing out over finding the perfect gift for your significant other, no having to deal with annoying in-laws, you can spoil yourself, and you’re free to hit up all the amazing holiday parties and mingle with other fly singles. Realize that there’s nothing wrong with being single. Embrace this time alone and use it as a way to get to know yourself better so that when the next person comes along, you’ll be ready.
