Last year, I really wanted to see a film in the theatre but nobody in my friend group wanted to. So I went by myself. It was a really small theatre and I sat there with like five other people that all went there by themselves as well. We didn’t talk to each other, just enjoyed the film and laughed together. And then I went home, marvelling in the post-theatre feeling in silence, just feeling, no talking. I still think about this day and cannot recommend it enough: If you want to do something nobody else wants to do, just do it by yourself!❤

You're so right, Jade - but unfortunately a lot of people confuse solitude with loneliness. To my mind it's only **unwanted** solitude that equals loneliness. There is nothing more satisfying than solo afternoon cinema trips, museum trips, book-shopping and sitting alone in cafés for hours just watching the world go by. 😊👌👌👌

This video could not have come at a better time, Jade. I just wanted to say thank you for posting this - I needed it. Your first solo date video was your first video I ever watched and it truly shifted my perspective. I was back home during my gap year and it helped me romanticize and fall in love with my life. Over that year I became so comfortable with solitude and felt so confident in who I was. Now as a senior in college, I’ve been feeling more lost than ever - craving that self-assured version of me who was inspired by your video. Hearing you speak today to your experience of growing and learning and you too craving HER (you from the past) made me feel so seen and understood and also normalized that this is all a journey and we never really lose that part of ourselves. We can always return to HER because she’s always been there.

Totally this, many people think you need to be in a relationship to be "truly happy", so they just focus on that as an objective instead of focusing on loving themselves (:

Jade, thank you so much for sharing your story about your first relationship. Your words touched me deep, it made me realize I’m not the only one having experienced this kind of relationship. It shattered me, but I always thought this was just me being weak. Thank you for telling, I wish you all the love in the world. ❤

Obviously the whole video is so meaningful, but as someone with audio processing issues (I’m autistic) I really appreciate the subtitles being on the video itself, as closed captions aren’t always accurate. Thank you for another lovely, uplifting video Jade ☺️💜

I feel you so much for the first relationship being the worst. Thankfully doesn't happen to everyone but my first relationship made me miserable and questioned my body image for years, (I was 15 in my first relationship, now I am 23). Whoever you find it should be someone who supports you all the way through.

@Andrea-oj6fz 8 ай бұрын

I really love going on dates with myself and when I hang out a lot with other people for weeks and don't make time for it, I really miss it. As an introvert (kind of), it's so re-charging for me and I highly recommend trying it :) I feel like the best thing about hanging out with people is the conversations, the exchange of stories and thoughts, and the making of shared memories. But the best thing about doing activities on your own is that you can truly and - for a change - without any compromise or discussion do intuitively whatever you want to do, when you want to do it and at what pace. You have so much space to focus on and appreciate these activities, to slow down, look around and just enjoy them without anyone else's input. That can be going to the cinema, or going swimming or having a coffee in a café and reading and only leaving whenever you feel like it, or solo travelling as well. For me, that is so important, it makes me feel so free, and I love it as much as doing something with friends, family or my partner. It never occurred to me that it can feel somehow awkward for other people, I personally always felt really good about it, so maybe it depends on how you approach it. But the most important thing is always to do whatever you like and what you feel comfortable with, that is so personal and everyone's needs are different. :) Just listen to yourself and what you need, what makes you feel happy, and not so much to what you think society expects of you. :)

I was cleaning my room while listening to your video in the background. When you started that little breathing exercise, I stopped in my tracks, sat down on the floor an joined in. Afterwards I couldn't stop smiling. It is so nice to see meditation and breathing exercises so wonderfully implemented in social media, it felt like, for a moment, all people watching and you creating were able to connect, beyond borders of time, a screen or language :)

So inspiring! I have moved in my life twice to a new city or even new country completely on my own. But now that I'm fully comfortable in my new home with my partner, doing the dates with myself I find very difficult. However I was kinda committed to it and I always had wanted to go on a little trip alone, so I went 2 days alone to Prague (where I don't speak the language but had been once before with fam). And omg has this experience empowered me :) I got to spend a every second of the day just observing what I want and listening to that. I had to go alone to restaurants and cafés and in just 2 days it has become way easier now. I hope I keep training the muscle of doing things alone for myself, to keep what I've learned in this trip forever with me❤🦋

I actually always loved your first date with your own self video where you even sang Genesis (yey!). It would always bring me a sense of peace when I needed it the most, having not gone on dates by myself that much yet in part because of the lack of really green spaces around me or even just being tooooo used to the online world but I do feel like I've grown a lot to care about myself and love myself and love being with myself!

I'm in a similar situation as you Jade. A former extrovert and people pleaser who was forced to come back to my hometown to reevaluate my life and plan my next steps. Mine was due to an illness that zapped my body (betterish now with medicine), but still the same circumstances nonetheless. You know what? I have learned to enjoy my Introvert phase and my Exile On (Name Removed) Street, and have really loved getting reacquainted with this person named Jason. Finding out my likes and dislikes away from a relationship or friend groups or team work enviroment . You and I will make it through this phase (as well as anyone else not quite where they wanna be) and come out better people for it, but only when the time is right.
