Your Valentine’s Day can be just as fulfilling as others’ in relationships. To make it through Feb. 14 with a smile, follow these seven steps.
- Surround yourself with your best girl/guy friends who are single as well. That way you can laugh together about how you don’t have to be on your best behavior.
- Instead of going out with your latest crush, dress up and go out for a night on the town with your friends or family. This will give you a chance to people watch all the couples and have an “unusual couple contest”.
- DON’T sit a home watching The Notebook or other romantic movies by yourself. This will only bring the tears and make you feel sorry for yourself, two things that are Valentine’s Day no-no’s.
- Contrary to common belief, you are NOT the only single human being in the world on Valentine’s Day.
- On Feb. 14 buy boxes of chocolates for you and your friends to enjoy with each other. Because on the day of, all the chocolate will be half price!
- While you enjoy your box of chocolates, design home-made valentines for the people that you care about. Make goofy ones about your friends that re-touch some of those old middle school memories.
- Finally, realize tons of people love you: your friends, family, dogs and even your cats. (Even though they’re the only animal that thinks they’re better then you… they still love you!).
