19 Things All Single Women Can Relate To On Valentine's Day

Ah, Valentine's Day is almost upon us. In other words, if you're not aware that you're single Feb. 14 will most definitely assure you. Some of you may be experiencing your first Valentine's Day as a single woman, but for the majority of us, we have a likely 20+ years of experience when it comes to being single on V-Day. If you're really not sure how it goes, here are 19 things that might happen if you'll be single on Valentine's Day.

1. You're still not sure what you're doing on Valentine's Day, but you know that any male encounter you have will be with your two best guy friends.

Ben and Jerry, that is.

2. You get low-key bitter every time you walk into a store and see teddy bears and chocolate.

It's okay, the less chocolate you receive equals less calories you have to worry about.

3. You relish in the idea that the very same chocolate will be on sale the next day.

Carbs. Give me carbs.

4. You have to withhold your laughter when your mom asks if you have special plans for Valentine's Day.

5. Did I say laughter? I mean tears.

6. You smile politely when your friends with boyfriends tell you about their Valentine's Day plans.

7. You have to hold yourself back when girls with boyfriends complain about what restaurants they might be going to/gifts they might receive.

I need not explain this type of frustration.

8. You might bust out your best moves in the hopes of getting a last minute Valentine.


9. You resolve to tell yourself you're still a rockstar when those moves don't work.

10. You gag at all the romantic gestures you see on Instagram.

11. You thrive in your singleness, but you call some of your other single friends anyway.

12. This leads to you and your very single friends ordering enough pizza for a third world country.

13. You realize that pizza doesn't quite fix everything, so you stock up on wine, too.

More is never enough.

14. You fully intend to drink all of that wine in one sitting.

15. You and your very single friends host an epic dance party.

16. You quickly take over the dance party because, well, you're a rockstar.

17. When in all reality, you probably look like this.

18. And when someone says you'll find someone by next year, you know better than to believe them.

19. But that's okay, because with so many years of experience, you're pretty damn good at being single.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
