Valentine’s Day is coming up, or as some prefer, Singles Awareness Day. From what I’ve seen, there are two kinds of people: those who love Valentine’s Day, and those who hate it. If you’re one of the people who hate it or you just don’t have anyone to spend it with (or both), here are a few alternatives.

Pamper day with your friends.

One of the best things in the world is spending time with friends, so go ahead and invite them over, grab a bottle of wine or two and allow yourselves to act like girls. I’m talking nail painting, face mask wearing and boy gossiping. Just like the movies.

Road trip to nowhere.

Personally, driving around with my music up and my windows down is really relaxing. So take a drive; to the beach, to the park, to the grocery store for more ice cream. Everywhere and nowhere.

Celebrate friends and family.

Valentine’s Day is all about love; just because you don’t have a significant other doesn’t mean you don’t love anyone. Sometimes your friends and family need a little extra love, especially if they’re in the same single-boat as you. Remind them how much you love and appreciate them, whether it’s a box of chocolates or a hug.

Celebrate yourself.

Have a bubble bath, eat your favorite food and wear your favorite outfit. You’re just as worthy of love as anyone else, so give yourself a little extra. There’s nothing wrong with a little TLC.

Treat it like any other day.

At the end of the day, it’s just another day. Love should be celebrated and appreciated every day of the year, not just one.
