Love or hate the holidays as a single?

We're so aware that Thanksgiving and Christmas can be tough as singles. We'd love to hear what you live and equally, what you dread around the holidays...

Kinda hehehe. But for now I know the Lord is making me wait for now and spend all my time with family and ministry. So when the perfect one comes im ready and whole for Him.

I love spending the holidays with my family but I can’t wait until I have a partner to enjoy it with too. I’m tired of being the only single one at my family events.

It's a mixed feeling. Sometimes I love that I have the choice to do whatever I want with wy kids, and other times I feel lonely to not share with someone like me. That someone special. I hardly get to receive any gifts, but it's always a pleasure to see the kids' eyes light up😁

I love doing what I want to do without having to consult someone or consider them haha I don’t like not being able to share memorable moments however I have children so I’m blessed. Hallelujah even if I was single for the rest of my life, that’s ok because I have found fulfilment in god. No one would ever be able to give that to me or even come close.

The one thing I dread is the endless questions about my love life. 🙄Otherwise, I enjoy spending time with my family and all the Christmas magic. It’s a lovely time!

Its okay to be single during the holidays. What truly matters is having your family around you.

I spend holidays with my family or working, so I've never felt lonely, but I dream of the day I can do it with my own family.

I spend Christmas with family (though there’s not many of us) and enjoy Christmas lights, which cheers up people in the village (makes the very tedious task of putting up/taking down worthwhile!). It’s also good to have a proper break. Downsides - even though there’s more free time, friends are often too busy to catch up. Also more aware of family no longer here. New Year can give fresh hope of meeting one’s future spouse “this is going to be the year”, but I resist thinking like that anymore.

I always spend Christmas with my awesome family which is the main thing. I admit I do wish I could share Christmas with a special someone soon though. For me new years eve is tougher mentally tbh
