Priorities change as you get older. What seems important in your 20’s and early 30’s (like the kind of car a guy drives, the clothes he wears, or the caliber of the restaurants he frequents) turns out not matter in the least once you reach your late 30’s and beyond.

Look, I’m not going to sugar coat it. The holidays are a crappy time to be single. The only thing that might make you feel better is realizing that they’re kind of a crappy time to be in a relationship too. For all of the joy and festivities there are this time of year, there’s a lot of anxiety and expectation and binge eating sugar cookies that don’t even taste that good. But, being single during the holidays does seem to make you a target for a lot of annoying chatter.

Dear Emily,
I just got out of a long-term relationship. I still talk to my ex all the time and we’re really good friends right now, even though we live in different cities.

A temperatures nationwide are dropping, most of us are fighting the urge to hibernate on the couch with Netflix and pizza. Our inner monologue goes a little something like this: We'll work out after the holidays, it's simply too cold to go outside, nobody will notice if our bodies aren't as tight as they were in the spring--thanks, leggings and over-sized sweaters!
There is one glaring problem with that kind of mentality. You'll know. You'll know that you're putting your health on hold for the holidays, and you'll definitely know when your skinny jeans are a bit too skinny. It doesn't feel good to let yourself go, even just for a season. Not feeling your best can take a serious toll on your confidence, which can have a direct effect on your dating success, more than your pants size ever could.
