Maybe you’re recently single, maybe you’ve never been on a date. Regardless of your situation, being single, even on Valentine’s Day, is a gift because you are beautiful and worth pursuing. So don’t feel blue, here are eight things to do on Valentine’s Day that don’t involve a significant other.
1. Galentine’s Day
Grab your closest single friends and head to the nearest spa or ice cream parlor. Eat together, laugh together and be together.
2. Dinner and a movie
Whether it’s dressing all fancy and seeing a romantic comedy or chilling in your pjs with takeout, sometimes there’s no better distraction than Ryan Gosling or Jamie Dornan.
3. Spa Day
When was the last time you took a day off from everything? Take one day to actually relax.
4. Take a Trip
Get outside and enjoy the fresh air. Find a place for a quiet hike and a picnic.
5. Dessert Crawl
Everyone is always giving out chocolate and candy on Valentine’s Day, but what about visiting a few dessert shops and sampling a variety of sweets with some friends?
6. Babysit
You probably know a couple who has kids and would love a night out. You’d make some money, get to hang out with kids and then you could treat yourself to something nice.
7. Volunteer
Plenty of organizations would love the extra hand! Plus, you’re sure to meet others who also want some company on Valentine’s Day.
8. Spread the love
Pass out valentines or candy to people passing by, even if you don’t know them. The little things often make the biggest differences.
