National Lover’s Day is coming this April 23, 2022. Although there isn’t any detailed history as to how this holiday came to be - according to some sources, the holiday falls on the same date as Saint George’s Day which is on April 23.
You might think the holiday is all about couples and lovers celebrating their love for each other. In a way, yes that’s right.
But what makes National Lover’s Day different from any national relationship day? For one thing, National Lover’s day is a second shot at celebrating your love for your partner. So if you’ve missed Valentine’s Day, this could be your chance.
But singles shouldn’t be left out in the cold.
Because there’s no such thing as too much or too little love. The holiday serves as a reminder to practice self-love and spend some quality time - either for yourself or with your loved ones.
Lover’s day April 23 is an opportunity to find a new love partner - if you haven’t got any. So check your calendars because National Lovers Day 2022 falls on a Saturday.
And if you’re feeling skeptical about the whole thing, here are 5 reasons why you should go out and find a date this coming National Lover’s Day.
Maybe you’re recently divorced, broke up with an ex-girlfriend, or just plain unlucky in the romance department. But hey, the silver lining is that you’re single and readily available for a romantic relationship.
That means you have a higher chance of getting along with someone of the opposite sex. The catch though is - that she also needs to be unattached and single.
The good news is that technology has changed much of the dating game. Online dating has been a raging trend ever since the start of the pandemic.
This gives you the opportunity to cast your net into a much wider dating pool. There are many free international dating sites, including matchmaking services that can help you find a compatible romantic partner.
Let’s face it, spending years feeling lonely can get depressing. Life isn’t meant to be lived alone. At some point, you might want to settle for a serious commitment with someone.
Someone preferably your type, and whose relationship goals align with yours. Dating lets you focus on finding a mate. Because if you don’t take the initiative to date someone, how can you know who is the right one for you?
Dating allows you to experience the opposite sex in a more intimate manner, thereby allowing you to get to know them better and establish a meaningful relationship.
There’s a saying somewhere that says “***You can’t grow as a person unless you go out and meet people.***”
In other words, dating is a big part of socializing. Because sometimes, it’s not all about hooking up with people for short-term pleasure. Dating helps you learn and sharpen your social skills.
It helps establish your social confidence, empathy towards others, cooperation, and more importantly, dating helps develop your personal identity.
Dating can also help you prepare for marriage. If you’ve dated someone for a long time, you’ll eventually learn their habits, their attitudes and behaviors, and how well both of you can work together as a team.
But dating doesn’t have to be serious. You can have casual fun too.
Maybe romance isn’t your main focus at the moment. Maybe you’re mainly looking for an emotional connection with someone. It doesn’t have to be your ideal woman either.
You just want someone to talk to - someone who can occupy your time for a while.
In this case, you might be looking for companionship within a romantic relationship.
Some men mistake companionship for a state of being friends. But true companionship goes deeper than friendship.
Couples that are good companions end up becoming best friends. They don’t just love each other physically, they genuinely like each other too.
Even if the passion or romance fades in a relationship, being true companions with your partner can still fulfill the needs in maintaining a relationship.
Everyone wants to have a healthy relationship with their romantic partners. But what is it exactly?
Healthy relationships are different for everyone since people have different needs. For example, a man in his 20s may look for certain aspects in a relationship that a 30-year-old man might not be looking for in his relationship.
But one key point in healthy relationships is their ability to adapt. Relationships are always changing and evolving.
People go through several phases in their life, and the fact that a relationship still remains strong despite the changes is a hallmark of a working and healthy relationship.
With the convenience of online dating, it’s easier than before to find a date around your area or even internationally. According to many sources, roughly 60% of users have cited positive experiences with online dating platforms.
They’ve had success finding romantic partners - whether they’re looking for a casual or a long-term relationship.
But if you prefer to look for a date sans online dating, there is always the traditional route of asking your friends or social network to introduce you to someone from their social circle.
Though be warned, there could be downsides to using this method. For one thing, there’s a possibility of meeting jaded women who’ve already been through numerous break-ups or have been through messy divorces.
They might be carrying emotional baggage or unhealed trauma from their previous relationships. The best thing you can do is to remember that no one is perfect in a relationship. Everyone has their own personality flaws.
More importantly, don’t let negative experiences ruin your chance at finding a wonderful partner. Because there is someone out there for you - despite what you may think.
Here are 5 credible reasons why you should focus on online dating this April:
Practical. If you’re someone who has a busy schedule, online dating offers a convenient way to access someone’s time.
Builds Confidence. Online dating platforms offer a safe place for you to interact with other people from across the screen.
Meeting People Outside Your Social Circle. Online dating sites bring together people with shared interests and people who are looking for a genuine relationship.
You can date at your own pace. If you’re not ready to meet people face-to-face, meeting people online can help you warm up before taking the plunge.
It’s a new adventure. You get the chance to meet people from all over the world.
So if you’re looking for a sign, this is it! Go on and take that leap of faith because who knows, your next romantic adventure could be waiting for you.
