This was my first meal in my new apartment living alone for the first time ever after my divorce. I made it at 10pm. I had mushrooms and asparagus as well and a really nice bottle of wine. When I was finished I put the dirty dishes in the sink and nobody yelled at me and a had the fullest belly. I slept so well that night I’ll never forget it.

The first dinner I had when my kids were staying at their dad's new place after we split, I made a grilled cheese with fancy sourdough, brie, apple slices, and fig jam. It was heavenly.

Dining alone is one of the best things I ever did for my mental health. Sometimes it's a fancy place, sometimes it's the mall, but always gonna be me

This was my first Christmas dinner separated because the kids were with their dad. It was 7 1/2 years ago. You’ll survive, because you’re far stronger than most of us.

The first few weeks when the door shut and I was alone I would sit on the floor with my back to the door and not know what to do, I started setting a book and a cozy blanket there and eventually I decided that I would take myself out to dinner each time. Twenty years later when I am feeling defeated I take myself out to dinner and it reminds me that I will be okay.

Eventually there will be peace in the silence. Theres so much noise in the beginning but it moves on.

I love dining alone though - no having to compromise on what I’m eating, I can read or people watch, I’m not in a rush ❤️. You’ll find the glimmer in it eventually, maybe not today, but you will 🫂

better to be truly loved in your own company than with someone else who dims your shine 🥰
