Oh the dreaded hallmark holiday, Valentine's Day. A day that both people who are in relationships or are single hate because of the over advertised, over priced, and all around day that has lost it’s true meaning. So if you find yourself single on this holiday filled with love, here are five things you can do to celebrate being by yourself for yet another year!
Go to the Movies:
There are some really great movies out right now that are worth the $12 ticket and $20 popcorn. If you haven’t already seen Patriots Day and are interested in learning about the series of events that took place during the Boston Marathon bombings, you should definitely go and see it. It was amazing and eye opening.
Watch Netflix:
If you don’t feel like going to the theater that will be filled from left to right with couples, then plan a night in with some of your besties and watch a cheesy chick flick! My favorite movie to watch is White Chicks!
Order Takeout:
Again, if you’re single this year, I wouldn’t suggest going out to dinner, unless you want to become even more sad and depressed then you already are. But if you still want lettuce wraps from PF Chang's then order takeout! That way you can be in the comfort of your own home, in your PJ’s, and catching up on the latest Real Housewives episode!
Workout:
You probably think that this idea is crazy, but is it really? This year Valentine's Day falls on a Tuesday, it’s the beginning of the week, and you will probably already be crazy stressed. Not to mention a little down. So why not go relieve some stress by hitting the gym? You will feel so much better about yourself and a little happier from all of the endorphins you just released from a good workout.
Cry:
Or you can cry, in your room, by yourself, about how you still don’t have a boyfriend, and say how you will probably be that crazy, lonely, cat lady that everyone jokes around about for the rest of your life, while shoving chocolate down your throat. I seriously do not suggest this but hey, once you’ve hit rock bottom, the only place to go is up!
Anyways, I hope this helps you try to enjoy Valentine’s Day a little more this year! As for me, I will probably be drowning in homework so I won’t even have time to think about being in a relationship. But I think I’ll try to squeeze in a workout somewhere!
What are your Valentine’s Day plans this year? Single or taken! Comment down below, it’s always fun to get new ideas for the future!
