"How to Build a Socialising Routine That Works for You: A 7-Step Guide"



If someone has little time or doesn't enjoy socialising, creating a routine can help make socialising less overwhelming and more manageable. Here are seven steps that may help:

  1. Schedule socialising: Set aside specific times for socialising, and stick to them. This could be as simple as scheduling a lunch with a co-worker once a week, or attending a monthly meetup with a shared interest.

  2. Set realistic goals: Don't put too much pressure on yourself to socialise more than you're comfortable with. Start with small, achievable goals, such as attending one social event per month, and gradually increase the frequency as you become more comfortable.

  3. Choose social activities you enjoy: It's easier to socialise when you're doing something you enjoy. Look for social activities that align with your interests, such as joining a book club or taking a class.

  4. Plan ahead: If you know you'll be attending a social event, plan ahead so you can feel more comfortable. This could mean researching the event or venue, preparing conversation topics, or bringing a friend or familiar object for support.

  5. Practice self-care: Socialising can be draining, so it's important to take care of yourself before and after social events. This could mean getting enough rest, eating well, or engaging in self-care activities that help you feel more relaxed and comfortable.

  6. Set boundaries: If you're feeling overwhelmed or uncomfortable in a social situation, it's okay to set boundaries. This could mean excusing yourself to take a break, or politely declining an invitation if you don't feel up to it.

  7. Celebrate your successes: Recognise and celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how small. Socialising can be challenging, and every time you step out of your comfort zone, it's a victory. Acknowledge your progress and give yourself credit for trying.
