Hello everyone! I hope your December has been fun, safe, and warm! With Christmas only a week away, odds are you have had a mistletoe encounter or are currently worrying about who you're going to kiss on New Year's Eve. The holidays have many opportunities (or traps) for smooching, which can be frustrating for the single people. So here is a list of 10 things you can kiss under the mistletoe and on New Year's Eve instead of a significant other. I believe that everyone deserves a special holiday kiss this year. Just make sure you have your breath mints ready!

A glass of champagne.

Delicious, sweet, and bubbly. Let's face it...way better than your ex!

That essay you worked all break to finish.

Be proud of all that hard work. And odds are you've been cursing at it for days, so it deserves some love.

Your acceptance letter.

Either to college, grad school, maybe even a new job. This acceptance letter shows you are moving on to bigger and better things than some holiday party.

Your dog.

Who doesn't love puppy kisses? I guarantee he's the cutest one at the party anyway.

...Or your cat!

Everyone loves a holiday boop from a little kitten.

A Christmas cookie.

To be honest, I'd rather eat dessert anyway. Where's the Santa shaped one?

A stranger.

Be bold and daring. It's the most magical time of year!

Chap Stick.

Keep those lips soft and shiny...just in case.

Money.

Just think about all the money you saved by being single during the holidays.

A poster of your celebrity love.

You know there is no one who could compare.
