Hey babes! Doing something a bit different today! Hope you enjoy it! Let me know what you think in the comments! 🖤

I think a woman looks extremely confident sitting at the bar or in a booth alone with her hair laid, face beat and outfit on point. Looking like she doesn’t have a care in the world and certainly doesn’t care about what someone may have to say about her being there by herself.

I said next year I want to take myself on a solo date once a month. Get all dolled up and just explore my state. I’m 32 and single. Single women’s biggest mistake is not getting enough exposure, staying in the house all the time. Let the world see you, honey! Let them know you exist, you are here, and you are ready to attract everything positive that comes your way ✨ Show up as your best self. Your husband might be at your next solo date 😉 And best case scenario, you’ll end up falling deeply in love with yourself 💛

Hey Maya. How are u gurl. I'm single and in my late 30's gurl I love looking good and spending time with myself. Thanks for normalizing this practice hun.

[KeLZB]

Towards the end of my single years, I finally got comfortable going on solo dates. I got tired of missing life because I didn’t have someone to go somewhere with. I used to love taking myself to the movies in the middle of the day. I really enjoyed myself and learned about myself. Those were times I felt God was speaking to me the most as well!

[LauryneAmanda]

I'm single in my 20s and I do this. It’s so empowering! But be safe out there ladies. I do this during the day.

I'm in my late thirties and got with my husband while I was 19. I'm at a position now where I've completely lost myself especially with covid and feel like my marriageis at a stale place. I've been going out to try different food spots but I'm going to begin dolling up and making myself feel my best. I went to the movies by myself 3 months ago and I FELT AMAZING!! Thank you for this post, I'm not single but even us married ladies need to remind ourselves of this.... we need to look good and feel good for OURSELVES 🥰

[vaughncilemccoy]

Hey Maya, I'm single and just turned the big 50 on Nov 8th. I bought 2 old school concert tickets to see Micky Howard and Tony Terry this coming Sat, my friend girl was supposed to go with me but she flaked out 😔. But after watching your date yourself blog, you gave me the courage to get dolled up and go by myself... THANKS 😊.

[OHoneyPot]

I love getting dolled up. I still take myself on dates and I’m not single.
I was always taught to take pride in myself from my Nana ✨💕✨

[mrsminix]

Once i became a travel Nurse and was away from everything i know, i started dating myself and both have been the best decisions for my life!! Bars, concerts, events, hiking, etc…. God created this world for us to enjoy and that’s what i plan to do!!
Thank you Maya for letting us in your world!! Always an inspiration!! ❤️

[meneer_nthabiseng]

Nothing like showing up for your damn self! Here for it sis! ❤️

[storyandsoulgardening]

Hi Maya! I love your content and I love seeing more women date themselves. Twenty years ago and throughout my 30s; that was all I did. So much so, that other women and men ridiculed me for "not having a date" or "doing things alone". However, I was taught by my parents that if you are unable to enjoy your own company then do not expect it to be reciprocated. But as the years have gone by; I have gotten away from this portion of my life. So a HUGE thank you for showing up and showing out.

[Roseyfro]

I loved this! Before getting married I made it my mission to be okay by myself, find my own interests, listen to my thoughts and now as a newly wed, I can really see how much that process helps me even now. Thanks for this ❤️❤️

[plotwhisperer]

Hi Maya…I found your channel last year…when my self-esteem went straight to zero! And I was so stressed out, turned 46, though I do not look it, nonetheless, I was a hot mess, tore-up from the floor up emotionally and physically exhausted. Long story short, your channel and positive attitude is a joy and an inspiration, that made me personally take another look at myself and get it together. I appreciate your videos that helps other women lift themselves up by lifting other women up. It is a new day and change in attitude, change in your appearance for yourself and self-love every day is the master key> . Thank you.

[tolaniadebayo]

I’m 22 and just got out of a really toxic relationship and I needed this cause I was just telling a friend today how I want to spend more time by myself and I’m glad I saw this💕

[Toiorchid]

I love the concept of this video because self-care and having confidence is very important. I have to work on being more comfortable in public by myself and less awkward. This vlog is a good blueprint of what women can do to be intentional about "dating themselves."

[EternalBeauty]

Thank you so much. I really needed this. I'm getting ready to be 31. Literally all of my friends are married and having children and then it's just me. I've always been uncomfortable going out by myself. You've motivated me. You do need to be comfortable with yourself and who you are. So I'm going to get over it and give this a try and show my self love and affection. Going to buy myself flowers and take myself out to dinner. I'm so glad that I stumbled across your channel.

[syd]

i found myself smiling through many parts of the video. its all about showing up for yourself! you cant help others you cant achieve things greater than yourself unless you make sure your wellbeing ( mental, emotional, physical, social, etc) is good!!

[juliaramalepe]

Definitely enjoyed this. Self-love is so important, you are literally getting to know your self!

[officially_keva]

Yes! We wanna see more.. these videos are so calming and inspiring… when u look and smell good it creates a more positive vibe within yourself
