Valentine's Day can definitely be sucky especially for those of us who are single. But being alone on V-Day doesn't always have to be bad!
1. It's better to be single than with a jerk.
Yeah, I get it. It sucks to see all of your friends in relationships. But think about how many of them are actually happy. It's better to be single than in a crappy relationship where you're not being treated like the queen you are.
2. Your pockets will thank you.
Just sit there for a minute and think of all the money you'll save! Valentine's Day is crazy expensive! Valentine's Day is the third most expensive holiday in the U.S. with Christmas coming in as number one.
3. Treat Yourself!
Have you been eyeing that new Michael Kors purse? Do you really want those super cute black, leather ankle boots from H&M? Then girl, you go for it! The great thing about being single on Valentine's Day is that you get to be your own Valentine.
4. Girls Night Out!
It's time to combine forces with all of your single girlfriends and take on the town! Hit all of the hottest bars, go club hopping. Who needs a man when you've got your best girlfriends?
5. You don't have to shave your legs.
Or anything else for the matter. Your single, baby girl. Embrace your inner beast. #noshave2017
6. There's no need to worry about looking good enough!
We've all been there. We get stressed out and overwhelmed for a date, even if it's with a guy you've been with for awhile. Girls just want to know that they look good enough for their man. But you have no man so you get to toss away all of those anxious feelings.
7. Did you say sweatpants?
Forget about buying a new LDB or that expensive matching bra and pantie set! You have the liberty to stay in comfy sweats and binge watch episodes of Grey's Anatomy while stuffing your face with bacon pizza. There's no one to impressive but yourself. So break your record of how many hours you can sit on the couch watching Netflix before you have to pee.
8. You don't have to stress out about buying the "perfect" gift.
If you're anything like me, buying gifts gives you crazy anxiety. What if they don't like it? What if they get you something amazing and it makes your gift look like a fifth grader's art project? It is so much better being single on Valentine's Day because the only gift you have to worry about getting is one for yourself.
9. You can do whatever you want!
Away with having to settle! You can do whatever you want (or whoever) on this God forsaken holiday because you're single! It's time to have fun and put your freedom to use!
10. And lastly, you're Prince Charming is still looking for you.
I know it's hard and you may feel lonely. But trust me, you're not alone. There are tons of single people out there who feel exactly the way you do. So be patient. He's on his way.
So whether you're single or taken, enjoy this God forsaken holiday in anyway you deem fit.
