It is when one goes out by themselves

to have some time to think, relax or do stupid shit. This is typically done when one does not feel like themselves or just after a stressful period in their life.
Usually one would splurge on themselves

by going to an expensive cafe or indulge in retail theraphy. But the more claming, scenic and less expensive option is to go

to a park with a book or a journal.

warning: might be boring ngl should have

slight ability to entertain oneself HAHAH
J: Oh damn you ate out alone?

An empowering way to spend quality time with yourself to boost your own self-love and self-worth.. treating yourself with the same love/ care as you would someone you care about!
It could be going for a solo trip.. or going to a hobby class.. going to the movies.. or an indulgent spa-cation..

The idea is to value your own time and relationship with yourself!
Ever since I started to Self-Date.. I started realizing how toxic my ex was!

She may be in a relationship.. but that doesn't mean she can't Self-Date too!
