Back in November 2019, Emma Watson coined the phrase \u2018self-partnered\u2019 when speaking about her love life and being single aged 30 to <\/span>British Vogue<\/span><\/i>. Though she had good intentions – to show that you don\u2019t need a significant other to be happy, despite what the patriarchy would like to tell you (correct) – the term was met with a bit of backlash for being, well, a bit wanky.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Someone\u2019s dating – or not dating – advice we can definitely get behind though is Charlize Theron, who opened up about being single to Drew Barrymore on Barrymore\u2019s new project, <\/span>The Drew Barrymore Show.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

During the actress’ conversation, Theron revealed she hasn\u2019t dated anyone in five years, but that her life is full and, therefore, she doesn\u2019t feel lonely.\u00a0<\/span>Furthermore, there\u2019s absolutely no way this Oscar-winner is going to settle, just to tick the box of having a partner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m in a place in my life where you have to come with a lot of game,\u201d she told Barrymore. “Not the kind of game that we think of, the kind of game where my life is really good so you better be able to bring that and maybe better because I just won\u2019t accept anything less.\u201d <\/span>She added, “I can honestly say this, on my life, I don\u2019t feel lonely.”<\/span><\/p>\n
