Lockdown:A survival guide for singles

This Wednesday, November 11, we celebrate singles. If this is your case and with this confinement, you are not in a very festive mood, we have something to pimp your VDM!

You are single ? Well today, it's your day . Yes, yes, there is also a day for that. Don't worry, we don't know either until we stumble upon it. And apparently, it's a phew tradition in China. It's THE night to show that you're proud to be alone, but still the opportunity to find someone. As a result, it is either a failure of the initial project or the biggest reversal of the jacket in history.

In short, now that you are aware, either you are in a relationship and it makes you look good , or you are not in a relationship and there are clearly two schools. Either you need as good a leg as your previous comrades, or it depresses you . Especially since it is necessary to add the following significant factor:the containment . Suddenly, the observation is not phew, that's for sure. But don't worry, young single person (perhaps an entrepreneur), if today we allow ourselves to contact you, it's for a very simple reason. Do you prefer to live in fate? Or do you want to resist with our survival guide? The question is quickly answered!

Cook like Maité

During the first confinement, half of the people thought they were in Top Chef or The Best Pastry Chef . So if you missed season 1, now is the time to get started! On the downside, your bread might not taste the same now that yeast and flour aren't as rare as Mewtwo cards. If you don't necessarily want to worry or you're not equipped like Cyril Lignac, there's always this good old pesto pasta that will never disappoint you! And in case you're ready to put on a few dolls, there's always your safe guy, Deliveroo.

So, yes, you may eat alone, but no one will put their fork on your plate without warning (Joey not share his food!) or will say that you should have left the spaghetti one minute twenty-seven seconds less because al dente is better.

The little sister?

No, we're not talking about your sister! But that of your little bucket. You're alone at home in peace, so you have to celebrate. Blow up the bottle opener or corkscrew and drink to your health . In moderation of course! It wouldn't be about forgetting what you did from 9:13 p.m. and waking up with the bathroom rug molded over your face half-lying in the hallway.

Have sex with yourself

During this confinement, you will be your best sex friend . You are alone in front of yourself so take the opportunity to innovate! Try new masturbation techniques , try having fun with sex toys , watch porn … Give it your all now is the time! Explore your body and surprise yourself. It'll come in handy when you can get back out there, or rather at someone's house.

To swipe or not to swipe?

If you really are at the bottom of the abyss, you can always fall back on these good old dating apps . Bumble, Tinder, Once, Happen… We're not going to list them all otherwise the lockdown will be over before you get to the end of this article.

There, we are almost sure that you know how it works. Be careful, don't get too carried away. We wouldn't want the art of the swipe to give you tendonitis in your thumb. Especially since when you go too fast, you always end up going into autopilot mode and there, you always make a fatal mistake... NOOOOOOOOOON, you swiped the wrong way. Once you have spent hours doing this, the discussion will come or not. Good luck with the discussion given the level of incredible adventures of your days.

Forrest course, course

If ever, swiping isn't enough for you, we recommend it sports . To clear your head one way or another. So of course, you can go find all those who have returned to running since October 30, these assiduous runners who started their career last March. Or you can stay home for a little yoga video. Don't be like, we know you like it!

In the end it's not that bad

Once you have gone through all these steps or just taken the time to settle down, you will realize that being single is not so bad . Even in confinement! Already, it is not an incurable disease. Let's face it, it's a significant advantage.

And then finally, being alone, it's still nice. You get up when you want, if you're teleworking you can set your alarm clock 5 minutes before and put on a t-shirt . Be careful to frame well so as not to show your pink flamingo patterned underwear (Don't deny it, we know!). And then, you eat what you want, when you want . You do not fight for hours to know which series or which movie you are going to watch because you have someone next to you who has read the latest article from Télérama or who betrayed you and watched the last episode without you.

In addition, it is an opportunity to discover the person with whom you spend the most time:yourself. Take advantage of this period to ask yourself questions, try to understand yourself. Even if it can be complicated, you will survive , guide or not. But in any case, we guarantee you a top quality result!
