Being single, one feels lonely and attacked from all sides.
Valentine’s Day is a painful reminder that you’re alone and suddenly you start missing all your ex’s.
No surprise presents.
It hurts to have nobody to wake you with a kiss or bring you breakfast or surprise you with a romantic present.
Social Media, in particular, disappoints singles.
Your newsfeed is full of cute couple pictures and extravagant gifts. And no matter how hard you try to ignore them, they keep making you feel alone on Valentine’s Day.
Feels miserable being the only single friend.
It sounds miserable listening to your committed friends talking about their Valentine’s Day plans while all you’re going to do is chill at home.
A great day to pamper yourself.
When all your committed friends are busy with their significant others, you can just go out for a relaxing spa or and feel like a million-dollar.
Are not pressurised into buying gifts or planning big romantic gestures.
You don’t have to browse gift websites to search for the perfect present for a special one. No worries about making dinner reservations.
Don’t have to stress about looking perfect.
You don’t have to put on your best dress, wear makeup or look a certain way and can be in your sweat pants and messy hair all day long
No plans? Can do anything you want.
You can go shopping. Party with your single friends. Or do nothing and watch TV all day long. Whatever works for you.
So, treat yourself to something big. And enjoy singlehood as long as it lasts.
