3 Ways to Kick Start Your Love Life After Lockdown*

I’m single and I have been for coming up to 4 years now. It seems like a long time but for me, it’s also been a blink of the eye because I’ve been too busy raising my kid. I had to put her first. But as she gets older I know it’s time for me to put myself first.

I think the COVID-19 lockdown has been a bit of a wake up call for me. It’s made me realise how alone I am. Yes, I’ve had my kid flittering around, but she’s the only social contact i’ve had for over 7 weeks now. I miss having an adult to talk to face to face, and I know if I wasn’t single I would be in a completely different situation. It’s definitely got me thinking about the future of my love life after we get out of lockdown. I will be making a more concious effort to connect with men.

So here are three ways I’ll be trying to kick start my love after lockdown;

Get Some Practice In

I’ve been so out of the game now that I’m not looking to jump straight into a relationship. I want to make a connection, suss out what I want. If like me you’re feeling that way too, why not try a local site such as www.norfolksexsite.co.uk. You can find a hook up before you really settle down and it could be just what you need to kick start your love life. They have them for area, just search for sex in Cheshire and you’ll soon find what you’re looking for.

If you’re wanting to start slowly on the journey to find the love of you life, you can also find local dating websites that are for more than a connection.

Decide What You’re Looking For

I’ve had a lot of time during lockdown to decide what I do want out of a relationship and I know now I’m not going to settle for less. I have seen the days where i’ve felt a bit low and i’ve entered into a relationship with the first person who shows me any affection. Not anymore. Now I’m going to be careful because it’s not just me I need to think about, it’s my kid too. I know the righe person is out there I just need to be prepared to wait it out.

In the same vein, I am prepared to put myself out there and I’m glad I waited until I was mentally prepared for all that goes along with dating, the good and the bad.

Don’t Be Afraid

Dating after along period alone can be hard and it can be scary. But don’t be afraid. Take a deep breath and sign up to online dating. Online dating is the best way to meet people nowadays. As I mentioned above there are local dating sites where you can meet people near by, or you can just sign up to the big sites and see where things go. Say yes to anyone who asks. Sometimes the person you least expect to be good for you is exactly what you need. But don’t forget your worth.
