National Singles Day 2023: Date, History, Facts, Events

The conventional wisdom surrounding National Singles Day, September 23, is as follows: “A new love finds you when you least expect it; when you’ve stopped looking and are on the verge of giving up, it hits you like a ton of bricks.” We would like to add that you should not continue to “scan” the groups at the locations you visit while telling yourself and the universe that nothing will happen. The point is actually less about the timing of a future romance and more about being comfortable with yourself. In retrospect, “You’ve got to be okay by yourself” is also a phrase Americans have heard frequently. When you are at ease in your own skin, you exude the kind of confidence that draws others to you.

But do not misunderstand us. We do not wish to discourage those who believe they are ready to give love a second (or first) chance. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of solitary adults in the United States increases dramatically, almost exponentially, from year to year. It’s not exactly “shooting fish in a barrel” these days, but if you’re a single eligible for a relationship and you determine it’s time, you’ll likely have multiple options.

Take some space and time and engage in some reflection in the interim. National Singles Day is a 24-hour period in which it’s acceptable to focus on oneself, because you’re doing essential work by refining who you are, who you thought you were, and where you fit into the grand scheme.

The background of National Singles Day

Although there are holidays around the world with similar sentiments (Singles Awareness Day on February 15, China’s Singles Day on November 11, and the United Kingdom’s Singles Day on March 11), National Singles Day in the United States is less emphatic about the idea that there is something wrong with being single, as if it were a condition that needs to be treated. A good indicator would be a person who, despite having limited resources, takes the time to be pampered. The attitude of National Singles Day is conveyed by making a modest sacrifice to get a massage, maintain an exercise routine, or something similar: yes, someone is out there for you, but no, you’re not in a hurry.

Several men were in a hurry quite some time ago. Stay with us: the original European settlers to North America encountered the indigenous tribes of what would become the United States during their westward expansion from Jamestown and other early landing locations. The Ohio-area Natives were so impressed by Ebenezer Sproat’s height and stature that they dubbed him “Hetuck,” which means “eye of the buck deer,” or simply “Big Buckeye.” The term “buckeye” eventually came to refer to all Ohioans, and in the 1980s, the Buckeyes Council created National Singles Week to “celebrate single life and recognize singles’ contributions to society.” As you can see on National Today, the concept has extended far beyond the borders of Ohio, and the 22nd of September is now the most celebrated day of the week.

National Singles Day is dedicated to successful solitary living, and we have some tips on how to achieve this. Keep reading.
