It's almost Valentines Day. I mean, duh, we all know.This means that pretty soon all of your friends who are boo'd up will be toting around flowers or chocolates or teddy bears or jewelry, and you'll be lucky if your mom sends you a card.

You are either stoked for its arrival and your upcoming, jealousy-inducing instagram post or preparing to suffer through the storm by gathering supplies (aka wine and the numbers of every food delivery service around). If you are in the latter category, you don't need to hide and watch the Notebook or call your mom while in tears about how single you are. Instead, seize the opportunity to...

1. Take yourself to that nail place you always ogle over

Have you ever found yourself passing by a really upscale nail salon and felt drawn like a moth to a flame? Stared in the windows at its gleaming tiles or plush chairs and thought about how cute your toes would look after a soak? If you said yes to any of these, then you have found the perfect first stop on your way to treat yo self nirvana.

My recommendation: Check out the Painted Woman in Beverly Hills for truly royal treatment. Make sure you wave to those walking by as you get your claws pampered and polished to perfection. You'll never feel more luxurious.

2. Go to bottomless brunch with your fellow singles

There is literally no way to better celebrate and treat yo self than to dress up and go out to consume a delicious, fabulous breakfast that is accompanied by a never-ending stream of mimosas, Bloody Mary's, or Rum punches. There is bound to be tons of lovey-dovey action going on at any given brunch spot, so make sure you call in a reservation for you and your pals.

My recommendation: Head to Sunny Spot in Venice Beach. They have a bangin brunch menu and their bottomless is $18, which allows you to switch between a bunch of different drinks. Plus, they play some classic early 2000s hip-hop throwbacks mixed in with current hits that make your day better instantly.

3. Buy that outfit that isn't "practical"

We have all been out shopping, passed a store window and seen a stunning dress or shirt or jacket or sweater that seemed like the garment of our dreams, while also simultaneously being unable to fit any occasion in the foreseeable future. However, you have likely put it back and sullenly moved on to buy those new socks. So, in the spirit of treatin yo self, run back to that store and snatch up that bedazzled, sequin-covered, feathery, outrageous piece of clothing that will make you feel like Queen B.

My recommendation:

Wherever your heart calls you. Go wild. Throw some bandz and strut.

4. Love Yourself

Most importantly, make sure that you show yourself some love this V-day. By focusing on the romantic culture of red hearts and roses that clouds the brains of everyone in February, singles tend to forget that Valentine's Day is just a day in a month, a holiday that has been reinterpreted from its initial meaning to something that simply operates to make Hallmark money. You are not defined by your lack of a significant other on February 14th, so make sure you treat yo self with self love above all else.
