February 14th is a dangerous day. Whispers of dinner plans at fancy restaurants. Heart shaped boxes of chocolate. Bouquets of flowers. Marriage proposals. It's a cruel world for the relationshipless population. But rest assured, I have composed a simple 10 step plan to get all my fellow single ladies through Valentine's Day in one piece- more or less.
1. Stay in your pajamas all day
No boyfriend? No one to impress. An oversized sweatshirt and fuzzy socks feel better than cuddling anyway.
2. Cook yourself a killer breakfast
You would make a bombass wife, but oh well, his loss.
3. Put your phone someplace out of reach
If you can't see all the gushy Instagrams, Tweets, and Snapchats it's easier to pretend everyone else is just as miserable single as you.
4. Hit the gym
Maybe the key to love is not having love handles??
5. Order in your favorite takeout
Chances are the delivery guy is single too...this could lead something...
6. Watch a Rom-Com
The Proposal, 10 Things I Hate About You, When Harry Met Sally, and anything Nicholas Sparks
7. Pour yourself a glass of wine
Pro of being single: you get the drink the whole bottle yourself
8. Eat a ton of ice cream
It fills a void no boy could ever reach
9. Cry a bit
But don't get your tears in the wine, you don't want to dilute it
10. Fall asleep enjoying the fact that you don't have to share the bed
Who's the real winner here?
If you closely follow these 10 steps, I can almost guarantee that you will make it through Valentine's Day alive.
*** Results may vary. These steps do not guarantee any relationship in the foreseeable future.
