Models Direct: Wedding Survival Guide For Single People

We all know how awkward it can feel being the only single person among your happily coupled up friends; a feeling none so worse than when attending a friend’s wedding. These situations can make us socially awkward, as well as manifesting self doubt about the direction of our own lives without that current partner, or the ‘happy ever after’. Here at Models Direct we insist that you should never feel this way and below we give some handy tips to encourage more positive thinking.

[UKPRwire, Wed Sep 29 2010] Talk - Admittedly this simple task can become somewhat daunting when you feel like the only singleton amongst a room full of couples! But trust us and give it a go, it will never be as bad as you imagine. Don’t be afraid to talk to couples, the great thing about weddings is that the event itself is a conversation starter. Talk about the wedding dress, the ceremony or the bride and the groom.

Don’t Idealise the Married Couple’s relationship – As easy as it can be to idealise the couple standing in front of you as an image of ‘relationship perfection’, it is more than likely untrue. All couples and relationships have their troubles, we’re just unaware of them more often than not. Don’t then, be lead into believing that unsuccessful relationships that you may have had in the past are a sign that you might never find your true soul mate.

Be part of the wedding - Don’t forget your importance at the wedding. It can be easy to feel swamped at such occasions, especially if you’ve attended as a single person. But remember, you were invited because the couple wanted you to be there. Think of it as not only a day for the married couple, but also as a symbol of friendship between yourself and your just married friends.

Take your time – It is really important that you don’t come away from such occasions feeling like your life is not fulfilled. People find their own way in life, and at their own pace. Be sure that both marriage and love will come, just don’t be worried to take your time.
