Hi everyone! We are two days away from the day of hearts. So, today, I wanted to talk about what to do when you're single on Valentine's Day.
Disclaimer: I'm no expert ;)
So, if you're single, you probably dread the month of February. Your heart starts to beat faster, your hands get clammy, and you start to sweat all over. Who will be my Valentine this year?!!! Well, I'm here to tell you that you have nothing to worry about. I will tell you how to spend Valentine's Day productively.
1. Cleaning Day
If you're single, that probably means you don't have a date. What better day to catch up on your house cleaning? Let's face it, you're probably not the cleanest person in the world, and you need something to do. Why not be productive and make your house sparkle? You would feel better afterwards :)
2. Treat Yourself
Who said you need a man to feel special? As long as you believe in yourself, you are confident, and you're happy being by yourself, then there's no problem. Go out and get yourself something nice at the mall. Maybe get a frozen yogurt or ice cream if you want to splurge on the calories!
3. Girl's Night
If you don't have a date, date your girls! Sometimes, all you need is the comfort of your girlfriends' company without any drama from the men around you. You can have a movie marathon, a day at the salon/spa, or a day of shopping!
4. Learn A New Recipe
If you house is already clean or you don't have a lot of extra money to spend shopping, or you just don't want to leave the house because you still feel bitter about Valentine's Day, try learning a new recipe. What better way to feel good than to eat?! It's definitely a cushion to the heart when you're munching on a new dessert or eating a nice rich meal that you made all by yourself!
5. Read A Book
There's nothing more special than spending your entire day with the sweetest and most arrogant book boyfriend out there. Prepare yourself a nice cup of joe or cocoa (or tea if you must insist!), and find a nice corner in your house. Choose your book wisely. This day may or may not be successful based on your choice of reading material ;)
So, there you have it. I hope you've enjoyed this post! I sure enjoyed writing it! Let me know in the comments what your plans are for Valentine's Day!
Love all your ideas except cleaning. I think staying home alone to clean would make me really depressed LOL But I do like to spend it with my friends! We usually do fondue and movies!
Fondue!!!!
I never liked going out on Valentine's Day. It's just weird and fake and a lot of pressure. Better to spend it at home or with friends and go out another night.
Haha, I have to get myself going to be able to even clean... But alas, I'll be working instead... At least I'll be making money (finally) :)
I have no one to go out with so yea, I'll be spending it alone, thinking of this guy. Main reason why I have, currently, 17 poems in a series that I plan to publish when I reach 50 poems.
Buy yourself chocolate and flowers.... celebrate the people in your life yhat you love... visit a nursing home and deliver stuffed animals....watch every sappy movie possible.... i can tjink of so many things ... what will i actually be doing? Taking care of my kids... maybe we will go to the library? I live a wild life ;)
Haha, yes you do... wild!! :)
Heartbreak and longing can be very helpful in the creative process. Look at Taylor Swift! You can sell your poems as country music lyrics :)
That's what my author friend told me too! But yeah I want to do an anthology. this guy writes lyrics too but his music is metal and his lyrics are deeper and abstract. would be nice to meet Taylor Swift and have her write an entire album from my poems hehe
Great suggestions Arianne!!!
I hope you were good to yourself and got lots of chocolates! :)
