Celebrate National Singles Week with Solo Connects

Your life isn't on hold until you meet a romantic partner - that's the key thing to remember when you're single!

One of the key things about the Solo Connects mission, is that we want everyone to live their best solo life. Just because you're single, doesn't mean that life has to go on hold or that you can't go out and do fun stuff with because you don't have a 'significant other.'

Life's too short, and we are all about having the best time while we are looking for a romantic partner. (And also, you'll make better dating decisions if you're happier in your life - that's a fact).

This brings us on to National Singles Week - and something we are celebrating here at Solo Connects. Although it's traditionally an American celebration, the idea (which originated in the 1980's) was to celebrate single people and challenge the cultural assumption that being single means being alone - or that there’s somehow something wrong with you because you haven’t found “the one”.

And we think that’s something worth celebrating here in the UK too.

Because being single is about so much more than your relationship status.

At Solo Connects, yes, we absolutely want to help you meet someone.

We love a good love story. (You wouldn't believe how excited we get about a love match).

But we also believe that your life shouldn’t be on hold while you’re waiting for one.

Being single can be a brilliant opportunity to:

✨ Do more of the things YOU enjoy
✨ Pursue your own goals and interests
✨ Try something completely new
✨ Make new friends and expand your social circle
✨ Say yes to adventures
✨ Enjoy your freedom
✨ Discover what makes you happy
✨ Build a life you genuinely love

The National Singles Week message is simple: celebrate YOU.

Treat yourself. Go somewhere new. Try something you've always wanted to do. Get out and meet people. Spend time with friends. Make memories. And don't wait until you're in a relationship to start living the life you want.

And that’s exactly why Solo Connects is about more than dating.

We’re building a community where single people can meet, connect, make friends, try new things, have fun and feel part of something.

Of course, if you meet someone special along the way, that's pretty amazing too. 🥰

But we don't want you sitting around waiting for that to happen.

We want you to live your best solo life NOW.

Because finding love is wonderful.

But loving your life while you're single is pretty wonderful too.

So this National Singles Week, don't ask:

“When am I going to meet someone?”

Ask yourself:

“What could I do today to make my single life even better?”

Then go and do it.

And who knows… you might just meet someone along the way.
