It's 2017 and you're in your twenties; five years ago you would have thought you'd be spending this Valentine's Day with the so called "love of your life". Instead, you're spending all your time getting that degree and working your booty off to pay for it. AKA you have no time for boys. If this description pertains to you at all, like it does me, I've come up with a list of things you can do this Valentine's Day so you don't drown in emotions.

1. Don't say once that "you're going to be alone forever".

First off, we all know this isn't true so don't say that because you'll just make yourself feel worse.

2. Remember that it's only 24 hours.

You have 24 hours to forget that it's Valentine's Day and to do something incredibly productive - like some of the other things on this list.

3. Watch John Tucker Must Die.

Watching this will remind you that the reason you're single is probably because there are way too many John Tuckers out there. It will also remind you that you're a boss a** b*tch and don't have time to play games.

4. Eat chocolate.

We all eat chocolate when we're sad, but in this case eat it because you're single and no one can judge how much of it you eat.

5. Work out.

I mean we probably don't want to work out on Valentine's Day while everyone else is going on cute dates and getting chocolate as gifts, but it will make you feel better. Like "YEAH! I'm an independent female, I don't need anyone else!"

6. Steer clear of social media.

Everyone will be posting annoyingly cute photos of and with their SO. It'll only make you feel worse if that's all you see. I suggest putting your phone on DND across the room and binge watching something.

7. Binge watch something on Netflix.

And by something I mean Shameless. Trust me, you'll fall in love with Lip Gallagher by the second or third episode and all real life boys will never compare.

8. Pamper yourself.

Pull out the bath bombs you got for Christmas, pour yourself a glass of wine and light some candles. Make Valentine's Day your day to take 12 baths.

9. Online shop.

Instead of having to spend money on someone else, you get to spend it on yourself.

10. Order yourself an Edible Arrangement.

Make sure to add a Note to Self.

11. Share the day with your other single girlfriends.

Gather the single ladies and order some take out. That way you can't complain about having a lonely Valentine's Day.

12. Cook for yourself.

Crank "Single Ladies" by Beyonce and shake ya tailfeather as your about to devour a meal for two by yourself.

13. Watch 50 Shades of Grey.

I think you know what's next.

14. Get yourself to the movies and see 50 Shades Darker.

If Christian Grey can't make up for you not having a real Valentine, then I'm sorry.

I hope this list helps you create a memorable, single, valentine-less Valentine's Day but if it doesn't then continue to spend it upset and lonely!
