8 Things to Do on Valentine's Day for Singles
Posted on Tuesday, February 12, 2019
Valentine’s Day is created for reminding us about love. Love in romantic terms is wonderful, but it is not the only type of love out there. Love for your family, your friends, your dog, or nature is nothing less than romantic love. On the other hand, self-love is the most important form of love that we cannot live without. Despite all the love we have in our lives, some of us might be still questioning our relationship status on this day and feel bad for ourselves. Spending Valentine's Day alone doesn't mean it can't be a special day for you, too. All kinds of love should be celebrated without any time limitation. Therefore, even if you are single, you should celebrate Valentine's Day, and spread it to the whole world. Here are 8 awesome things you can do to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Love in any form is worth celebrating either with someone special or with people that are dear to you.
Treat Yourself
Everybody deserves to treat themselves once in a while. Why not do it on Valentine’s Day to celebrate self-love? Consider things you always wanted to do, but could not do because you did not have time, energy or you thought it would be too expensive. Treat yourself by doing them on V-Day! A soothing spa, eating all your favorite food, doing your favorite activities, going shopping, and buying something to spoil yourself for that day could be some of the fantastic options to consider. While you are doing these, stay away from social media and make the most of your time. You can consider doing these activities with your friends, as well.
Go On a Vacation
Making a change and going on vacation could be a great idea to celebrate love for yourself. You may need to plan your trip well if you want to go abroad. You can enjoy hot weather on a beach, Aurora Borealis in the North, the nature in the countryside. So many great adventures and opportunities await you on this journey to experience real love. Don’t miss them!
Complete Your Bucket List
Completing some of the things on your bucket list on Valentine’s Day would be one of the best ways to express self-love. Even the littlest things could mean a lot to you if you are easy to satisfy. It doesn’t necessarily be a huge thing. Just make yourself happy, feel special, and loved on this day. Don't forget to put one thing out of your list as well.
Be with Your Friends or Family
Being with your friends or family and celebrating your love for them is an excellent idea for Valentine’s Day. Unconditional love is one of the best feelings in the world worth celebrating. Being on your own may not be a good idea if you care too much about your relationship status or finding a partner. You can be sure your friends and family will make you feel loved on V-Day. One of the most fun ideas to do with your friends on Valentine’s Day is, of course, to go clubbing. Just go out with your gang and celebrate the day. You can dance like nobody's watching, enjoy the music and seize the moment without worrying over anything else. You can also take a road trip and have an adventurous day with your pals.
Try Online Dating
If you want a relationship and spend Valentine's Day with someone you like romantically, online dating is the easiest way to do it. However, you must keep in mind that you must do it before V-Day. Do not go on a first date with someone on V-Day and risk the whole night. Trust me! You do not want to spend an awkward night on that day. I am sure you would rather stay at home all night in your pajamas and finish a whole bottle of wine by yourself. Besides, you might force yourself to enjoy the night and fake it even if you don't feel good. And, it would be the worst thing to do on this romantic night. Instead, you can try looking for a date beforehand. Maybe, you can go on a date with someone on V-Day whom you have spent time before. As the big day is approaching, so many people use online dating to find someone. Hence, your chances to flirt with other singles and meet someone special will be the highest around this time. Just remember, you don’t need to settle for less than what you deserve and want. You should give it a try and see where it goes. Even if you don’t meet someone special, you can have some fun and delay the celebration to February, 14.
Attend A Social Event
Social events could be exactly what you need to do on Valentine’s Day if you want to meet other people, avoid negative thoughts, have fun, or maybe find someone special. As Angela K. Troyer has mentioned in one of her articles, socializing is psychologically proven to make people happy and improve their lives. Therefore, being happy and celebrating love are great plans for V-Day. Furthermore, you are more likely to come across someone who shares similar interests with you. Who knows? Maybe, this could turn out to be the start of something new and solid.
Speed Dating
There are a lot of speed dating events on Valentine’s Day. Speed dating is a big event in which so many potential partners gather up and meet in a series of mini-dates that last nearly 3 minutes. Now that this will not be a romantic date, it is okay to give it a try and go to one of them on Valentine's Day. I am sure you will meet such funny people who will give you cramps from laughing. During each mini-date, people talk and get to know one another. It is a perfect way to uncover how you choose your partners, what criteria you have, and meet someone special. If you don’t like your date, you will meet someone else in 3 minutes, so you do not even have to worry. Since you will have no expectation other than having fun, you might even get attracted by someone surprisingly. Now, it is your turn to try and enjoy it if you don't want to spend V-Day alone.
Movie Marathon with Your Celebrity Crush
Are you more of a person who prefers to stay at home? If so, you are welcome to enjoy your warm house, get comfortable and have fun. A movie marathon of your celebrity crush would be an amazing plan for you on Valentine’s Day. You can watch your favorite TV series as well as movies. Who can say no to watching Friends for the 15th time? Love for fictional characters or gorgeous Hollywood artists is worth celebrating too, right?
