This is 2025 oooo, and some of you still haven’t figured out the art of self-love??
Eiiiiii, how far na?
You’ve searched “how to love yourself” more times than you’ve opened your bible. It’s giving confusion in CAPITAL LETTERS.
Google Is Even Tired of You
Google is tired. Every day, “how to love yourself,” “ways to be happy alone,” “what to do when nobody likes you”
Ah, ahn. Must you trend for emotional damage?
Let’s call a spade a spade, self-love is not rocket science, and it’s definitely not something you should still be searching for with 4G internet and adult responsibilities.
1. Take Yourself Out, You’re a Hot Date
Start small.
Take yourself out. Yes, dress up and go on a solo date to the mall. Order that ₦7,000 milkshake and pretend you’re in a Nollywood romcom.
Nobody will beat you.
2. Buy That Skincare
Splurge on skincare if it makes you feel good. If it glows, go broke.
That serum that smells like orange peel and costs half your rent? Buy it. You’ll glow and still owe money, balance is key.
3. Romanticize Your Life
Go on quiet strolls with your headphones on and blare sad girl music like a Gen Z queen. Or listen to “Asake” and enter main character mode. Either way, romanticize your life. It’s your reality, and you’re not getting a refund.
4. Say No Without Explaining
Self-love means not showing up for things (or people) that drain you. “No” is a full sentence, my dear.
5. Unfollow, Mute, Block, and Choose Peace
If their stories trigger your inner hater, unfollow. Mute. Block. Your mental health is not a group project.
Self-love isn’t all spa days and aesthetics though. It’s about protecting your peace and putting yourself first, and actually meaning it.
So, if you’re still typing “how to love yourself” in 2025, maybe it’s time to close Chrome and use your senses.
This life is one, there’s no reincarnation o!!
Love yourself loud, and act like someone worth loving, because you are
