If you’ve gotten into the New Year single, don’t despair. Whether you’re looking for love or trying to stay away from it, 2020 can be your year. You can find here a list of resolutions that may be useful for you if you don’t know how to spend the year on your own.

1. Stop actively searching for someone

Putting effort into searching for a soulmate is probably going to lead to an unwanted outcome. You’ll make the finding of the one more difficult. The smarter thing to do is actually enjoy your food, drink, or company instead of scanning every room you enter in search of a partner.

2. Loosen your standards

If you want to happily fall in love in 2020, you should probably loosen up your standards a bit. This doesn’t mean you should forget about standards completely, but just try to be more open to compromises when it comes to your expectations and reality.

3. Leave the past in the past

The start of a new year is the perfect time to stop worrying about the past and focus more on the present and future. Terrible exes and even worse breakups don’t have to discourage you. There must be someone out there who’ll make a great match for you. You’re decreasing the chances of meeting someone great if you stubbornly stick to past bad experiences.

4. Meet new people

Being in a relationship may get boring and people get into the same old routine easily. The most exciting part of a relationship is the beginning of one. Getting to know each other is always fun and unpredictable. Use your time in 2020 to give chances to other people or find a quality dating agency in Sydney.

5. Focus on your own well-being

If, on the other hand, you don't want to start dating for some time, you can still spend quality time in 2020. You can start working on yourself. Being in a relationship can play with your mind in a way. You could forget to look after yourself when you get used to exist with someone. Your time alone can be beneficial for your health and growth in many ways.

6. Start going to the gym

Besides working on your mental health, you can work on your physical health too. If you didn’t before, now is the time to get a gym membership. Start working out and you’ll notice how healthier and better looking your body gets. Pay attention to the kind of food you eat too and let healthier habits make your life better.

7. Say yes to new experiences

If you’ve always wanted to learn French, for example, you can do it now. Being single will provide you with enough time to learn new skills, see new places or take up a sport. You’ll soon find your life more interesting and fun. If being single seemed depressing to you, you’re going to be convinced that it’s definitely not.

8. Refresh your wardrobe

You may find your current look boring or uninteresting. You may be in need of change. Changing your wardrobe can be a fun way to start this year. It’s a great way to be creative and also more satisfied and happy in your skin.

9. Spend more time with your friends

Spending time with friends is always a great way to get through the day. Use your spare time in 2020 to take care of your closest friends and friendships. Visit the friends you haven't seen for a while. Plan a group trip with a few of your childhood friends. You can even try to bond with your colleagues in some team building activities.

10. Spend more time in nature

Another great way to spend the year is to go to nature more often. Nature is always beneficial for you. You can have tons of fun while breathing the fresh air and you don't even have to go far to do it. Australian wildlife is famous for its uniqueness and diversity. Don’t wait and start your year right.

11. Go out alone more often

There is nothing wrong with going out on your own. If you haven't done it before, 2020 is a great time to start. If you feel like watching a movie, you don't need to have a company to enjoy your time in the cinema. If you feel too uncomfortable sitting alone in the coffee shop, bring a book.

Being in love is magical, but being alone is so too. They both have their advantages and disadvantages. If you belong to the latter group right now, don’t forget the good sides of being single. Instead, focus on them and make the most of your time.
