With Valentines day literally being right around the corner, it is inevitable that the unavoidable truth of being single on such a romantic holiday is going to set in. However, little did you know this is probably the best scenario possible on Cupid's Day, and here's why.

1. You can eat a whole box of chocolate without being judged. Or a whole pint of ice cream. On your couch. In your underwear.

2. You can go see the new Fifty Shades Darker movie (in theaters on Valentine's Day) with your other single friends.

3. Valentine's Day isn't just about significant others. Take this opportunity to celebrate the other wonderful relationships in your life.

For example, your mom, best friend, sister, or even dog.

4. Take this opportunity to enjoy the perks of being single!

Not being tied down comes with a lot of perks. Especially when you are in your twenties, you want to enjoy this new freedom of adulthood. Nobody is there to weigh you down, tell you how to live your life, and control how you make your decisions.

5. Yes, you will feel sad for maybe a second. Or more. But that's okay. Take this as an opportunity to be excited for what's to come!

I'll admit, there might be a few times during this holiday that I will play some Drake and get into my ultimate feels. Realize this is okay. No, you will not be forever alone with five cats. Your special someone is out there, waiting for you. No rush, you will find him/her.

Now that I have enlightened you on the other side of this beautiful holiday, the singles side, remember to keep your head up and eat all the chocolate. It will be okay. Never forget your self worth and keep on telling yourself that someday you will be happy with someone, but for now just be happy with yourself.
