Single On Valentine's Day? No Problem, We've Got Your Back

Valentine’s Day is around the corner and it’s not usually a happy day for single people. Seeing all those couples stating their love and sharing all those happy moments can really be a down for single people, but it doesn’t have to be that way.

So, what? You don’t have a Valentine, or you haven’t realized you actually do. Because turns out that you’re your own Valentine and can make this day all about loving yourself and celebrating love in general. Here are ten ideas for your upcoming Valentine’s day.

10. Take yourself on a date.

And I mean a real date, you gotta own the whole experience. Pamper yourself as you get ready to go out, wear something nice and really enjoy the pleasure of your own company. Why not spending this Valentine’s Day single by visiting the place you’ve been dying to visit a restaurant, a theater, maybe a park so it’s time you take time for you and enjoy doing it.

9. Read and watch movies.

If you’re not in the mood for going out, then maybe a better option is staying in. Take the time to read or watch the movies you like so much and make sure to have your favorite snacks right beside you. It would be even better if you cook yourself a nice meal, or order something you just love! Having some me time is also practicing self-love.

8. Go to a spa!

If you’re in the mood for being pampered and not moving a single toe than a spa is the greatest idea! Go have yourself pamper and treated like the queen or king you truly are!

7. Bake for the special people in your life.

There’s nothing more enjoyable than baking, and when you do it for the people you love is twice as fun! Look for new recipes or bake your traditional recipes, the important thing here is celebrating the love you feel for the people in your life. You can also plan a get together so you can all bake together and talk.

6. Get as comfy as you can.

Spending Valentine’s day in a comfy way is also a great option. Get on your favorite pj’s and just get the rest you need and aim. Sleeping properly is a great way to take care of yourself, so let’s hit the bed, or your favorite couch, for a well-deserved sleeping session. Put your favorite sleeping tunes or simply lay there and get some rest.

5. Throw a party!

If you want to do something more lively then maybe a party is a good option for you. The great things about parties are that they don’t really need a reason, but if you’re looking for a party then you can do a Yes I am Single And Fine party, a Down With Love Party, a Gals Party, or simply a Party. Just have fun and enjoy yourself!

4. Have a sleepover with friends.

I just love sleepovers, and they’re a great way to spend Valentine’s day! Get your friends together and plan the coolest and craziest sleepover ever. You can also do it with your siblings or even a family night. Whatever makes you feel as cool and awesome as you are!

3. Host a dinner with friends.

Because gathering with friends is always satisfying, get your crew together and have a nice dinner. Play games or simply talk for hours and celebrate you have these cool people in your life. Also, let them celebrate you!

2. Treat yourself as the queen/king in your life.

Every now and then we deserve to treat ourselves with the things we like the most. More importantly, is knowing that you should always treat yourself as the important person you are in your life. So, simply do something you really enjoy. Maybe going for a walk, going to the beach, going dancing or even going to the gym.

1. Travel and let life leave you breathless.

If you have the opportunity to take yourself on an adventure, then go ahead and do it! Getting to go to new places is a great way to change our perspectives and open our minds and hearts for things to come.
