    Great content. I dated myself and when I met my husband the bar was set so high because I gained so much confidence and found my true worth. Wasn't gonna settle

    This is so true. I thought being single was a nightmare until I became a single woman and it’s amazing. I love hanging with myself, I feel more confident and I appreciate the little things more. So thank you for this video and yes you should vlog your dates,it will help us single women.

    Agreed!👍 It's extremely important to date yourself. Being in a "relationship" should never make you feel "complete". You need to be a complete person by yourself. You need to know that having "someone", should not validate who you are as a person. Therefore, when "you two" find each other, you will be a BONUS in each others' lives.❤

    I really enjoyed it .... Caribbean parents are tough and I totally agree.... I also think living by yourself in your own personal space and at peace really helps with dating yourself

    I loved this video very much! As women, we need to understand that we prepare ourselves for a kind of love that we’ve never felt or experienced before when we decide to take time to love/date ourselves.

    This video could not have been more timely, as I literally just had a simular conversation with a cousin of mines on this topic and that of having children. The main take away for me from this upload is to enjoy my season of singleness. As caribbean natives, it is easy to assume why someone is single and that stems from generations where our folk parents were so quick to stay in relationships that brought them little happiness just to prove that they were in a relationship. As modern women, once we are able to enjoy being single, then having a partner to share life with when it eventually happens justifies our wait. Keep topics like these coming sis. #Roadto2k #Officialgangmember

    From the first couple words you uttered I knew you were from the Caribbean! 😀 I’m in total agreement with everything you’ve said in this video. Dating yourself and ensuring that you take the time to care for yourself is important. You learn so much that you thought you knew,
    just by tuning in to your needs. Often time we think we know ourself but we really don’t because we don’t take the time to analyze ourselves. Great video Michele!

    i've always been single so i guess you can say i date myself all the time. I love to dress up and take myself to a nice restaurant, or to an art exhibit, or to a cafe for a drink and sweet treat, or the movies. i also consider going to sephora and buying myself perfume as a date treat lol since it comes in a gift bag i can pretend.

    Kudos to this video niks, love it 😀👏. And yess Caribbean parents ARE THE TOUGHEST..smh.. but being single is such a blessing in so many ways, and from learning how to truly love yourself and being happy being alone is when you will met who's meant to be in your life ( that's how I see it)..lol. being single is not a bad thing as society paints it to be, it actually amazing and more people should be doing it, than staying in a relationship being unhappy just to say they have someone or to please parents 😨😏

    I think it’s ok for other people including family to just mind their business, especially when they do not qualify to date you. It’s not like they have a resolve. Sweetheart you’re doing right, don’t settle for less than you want or deserve. Self love is powerful, it lets others know you can not be mistreated. ❤️❤️❤️

    I agree wholeheartedly with what your ex said ..if you can't be by yourself..something is wrong. I'm currently in the most healthy relationship that I've been in and I think its because I still date myself even though I'm in a relationship.
    My partner said to me in the beginning that my happiness is my responsibility and at first I thought that was harsh but he is right. His job is to contribute to my happiness but its my responsibility.
    I think you should continue creating content like this. I've been thinking of doing the same on my channel as well.

    I totally agree, we as women have to learn to love, appreciate understand ourselves. We won't succumb to pressure, about getting babies, married etc. We are going to date ourselves and enjoy our own company. I've been single so long, that I just don't feel like being bothered sometimes and a lot a these men nowadays are not so genuine. I totally enjoyed this vlog...thank you for sharing, beautiful as always and I love your hair. #roadto2k #like #share #subscribe #comment.

    Girlll you already know I got a mouthful about this topic! But yesss dating yourself is so important. Sometimes we need to take the time out to figure our own selves out before taking anyone else on. I do think it’s perfectly fine to be by yourself, and it’s crazy society tends to make us think otherwise but yal know i don’t like ppl so.. jk but not really 😭 😂
