Finding yourself single on this Valentine’s Day once again? Don’t stress because here are 7 guaranteed ways your gals (or just you) can enjoy themselves on “single awareness day.” Bonus points if you do all 7 which are guaranteed to make even your favorite couple jealous.
1. You can watch Deadpool with your besties
Watching Ryan Reynolds in theatres. Check.
Watching him with your gorgeous friends in tow. Check
Not having to worry about a date. Check.
2. Host a piñata whacking party
Idea courtesy of the movie (Valentine’s Day). Reasons: Jennifer Garner did it. ‘Nuff said.
3. Do something artsy (museums, galleries, painting)
Educate yourself (and maybe some friends) by being cool and cultured. Take this time to do what you always say you’ll do and actually visit a museum or an art gallery. Spend a couple hours being fascinated by art and maybe even go home and do some yourself.
4. Go Dancing!
Gather your closest friends, channel all your confident energy and hit that dance floor. Always wanted to try salsa? Tap? Jazz? Hip-hop? Don’t wait any longer because now is the time to let loose.
5. Go to a comedy club
Wallowing is for the weak, instead, spend today laughing your sorrows away with other cool singles. They’ll be sure to be a bounty of jokes made about the absurdity of today anyways.
6. Group workout
Don’t be that single person who stuffs themselves chockful of food and chocolate (wait until the day after). Instead, grab your other single friends, put on some Blogilates, and let Cassey Ho take care of the rest.
7. Coffee crawl
Coffee has always been there when you needed it the most. What better to way to continue expressing that love by going on a Coffee Crawl? Caffeinecrawl.com has a list of last month’s participating shops that you can use a map.
