5 Things To Do On Valentine's Day When You're Single
HerCampus

If you're anything like myself, I'm sure you know the feeling of being single on Valentine's Day. While what seems like the entire universe is out on their lovely dates, you're stuck at home with nothing to do and nobody near. Sucks. I know.

So, to help out with your VDay blues, I put together a foolproof list of things to do on Valentine's Day when you're single.

1. Order yourself a heart-shaped pizza.

Or Chinese. Whichever you prefer. Food is a great way to drown out your sorrows.

Now, I'm no advocate for emotional eating, but I'm also not here to tell you how to live your life.

2. Watch a sappy chick flick.

"Because I Said So", "10 Things I Hate About You" and "The Notebook" always seem to give me hope in love.


How could you not fall in love with his charm?

3. Listen to sad love songs.

Personally, I'm a sucker for Elvis and Ed Sheeran, but, again, feel free to listen to whatever your heart desires!


4. Treat yourself to a Valentine's gift or two

Shopping never fails to lift spirits! Go out and buy yourself a new pair of shoes or some makeup or something.

Retail therapy never fails!

5. Go out with all of your single friends.

After all, they're in the same boat as you. What better way to spend your night on a date with your best friends?

Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
