A counsellor has given advice on how to keep yourself happy on Valentine’s Day and have the perfect time – even if you’re single.
Fettle.ie counsellor Ciaran Coyle shared his top tips on how to avoid getting the February 14 blues . His top tip is normalising being single since so many people feel like they need to be in a relationship to be validated.
“It's better to be single and to be happy in yourself than to be miserable in the wrong relationship,” he says. “I think that's huge, showing yourself kindness and compassion because the relationship that you have with yourself is the most important relationship you'll ever have, and it branches out into all the other relationships in your life.”
