How to Get Through Valentine’s Day if You’re Super Single

single on valentine's day

Can you spot lovey-dovey couples while the single you just notice them? Being single legit on Valentine’s Day isn’t the worst thing if you know the perks of it. So for once, keep the overtly romanticised notion of V-day aside and engross yourself in love for your own ‘self’. What say! What fun it will be to celebrate Valentine’s Day, the day of love, as a Self-Love Day. This way, you can do so many different things for which you actually couldn’t make time in your calendar. So hurry, scroll through to get the day like a pro. 

Have A Spa Night

Give yourself all the time you need and go on full DND mode. Treat yourself to a hot shower, bubble bath, facial, massage, makeover, new haircut, or makeup. You may book a professional appointment or splurge on a DIY home spa treatment body butter, body oils, face masks, or whatever you want. 

Have It Your Way, No Judgement Involved.

You don’t have to watch the same action movie for the 100th time when you desperately wanna watch a romantic Bollywood flick like Jab We Met or the Hollywood classic Pride & Prejudice. Or do you want to read some books with happy endings to cheer your mood? Why not? We need not be anti-romantic or accept the feel-good vibes.

If you also want to cry your heart out while watching Titanic or reading The Kite Runner without being judged, you have your free space. (Well, they get us every single time. 😭)

Be Joey

You can order your favourite takeout without the fear of sharing it with your special someone. Who always chooses something different from yours and finishes it off as quickly as possible. Later, they wanna taste it from your plate and always end up gulping down 70% of your food, leaving you hungry and pissed. So ‘No Food Sharing’, Does it sound like music to ears?

Dance Like Nobody’s Watching

Single on Valentine’s Day? Sweat out all the day-long stress with the fabulous Zumba session. Get into your comfiest sweats and just groove. Nothing feels better than grooving to Icona Pop’s track-‘I don’t care, I love it’. Why stick to a romantic salsa routine when you can dance your heart out? Trust us, you will get the best high ever.

Write Yourself A Love Notes.

Sounds weird? Not as weird as sulking about your single status. Do you know our first best relationship is with ourselves? Have you heard ‘Khud se pyaar nibaun? Sheila ki jawaani? or Main apni fav hoon?’? Exactly. Write a love note to yourself and talk about what you love about yourself. What about you is inspirational? No wonder it could be a great time to reconnect with yourself. You never know; you might rediscover yourself & everything will fall into the right place. So bye, self-pity mode & Say Hi, True love.

Focus On Your New Year Goal.

Craving for more chocolates? What about your New Year resolution of getting fit & fab in 21 days and no goofing up this time? Thankfully V-day comes pretty early in the new year. So it’s time to roll back on the trail. If your resolution was getting a partner, don’t bother. Put your energy to better use; get abs instead.
(PS. You can treat this V-day as your cheat day.)

Take The Day Off Instagram.

Tough? Difficult? Crazy? Yes, but you got to do this, Love. Why scroll and pester yourself with Valentine’s Day Insta hashtags like #couplegoals #foreverwalalove #mine #us #whybother at all? Why haunt yourself with red roses turning into bushes the next day? Instead, start gardening and planting different types of roses. Then, at least you can savour them for a long.P.S. Gardening has a therapeutic effect on the mind and soul. Words of experts, not ours.

Do Nothing At All. 

Being single on Valentine’s Day doesn’t mean you HAVE to do something. Just hibernate, bathe for hours or sleep all day. There is no pressure to buy gifts, plan a date, book a restaurant, click pics, and write #couplelove #puppylove. Just light some scented candles, wear your quirkiest sleep tee and lie down on the bed reading your favourite novel. Nothing can ever beat that comfort. So keep your sanity intact and just stay happy.

So get up & seize the day, our friend kya pata kal ho na ho. Live to your fullest and get through the day happy & content. If you really wanna do something, spend time with your parents, hang out with your friends or dig out your childhood photo albums and relish it with your siblings. Else be your own Valentine, while at it, why not splurge all you can, available at a special Valentine’s Day discount (*wink* wink)? Choose from a wide selection of lingerie, skincare, body care, and nightwear and get on a roll. 

P.S. Give yourself the love you deserve. 

Happy Valentine’s Day, our fellow single friend!
