3 Things To Do on Valentine’s Day When You’re Single AF

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Winthrop chapter.

Alright Collegiettes, we know Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! Some people love this holiday, while other’s don’t find much interest in it. Even though you have so much more to offer than your relationship status, modern society has made Valetine’s Day a big deal. Maybe you don’t get the hype because you’re single, or maybe it’s because you think we should express love year round! Either way, here are three awesome ways to have a great Valentine’s Day, even if you’re going solo this year! 

 

 

1. TREAT YOURSELF

If you’re taking this year’s holiday ~solo~, who says you need a significant other to treat you right? Buy yourself some of your favorite candy, order take out, run a nice bubble bath and maybe even use a bath bomb, drink some wine and pamper yourself! Let’s be real, how many nights do you get where you can do this totally guilt free? 

 

2. GAL-ENTINE’S DAY

If you want to do something this V-Day, think of having a galentine’s day! Get a group of your closest girlfriends together, exchange gifts, have a movie marathon, and bond with your best friends! Love from your girlfriends is just as good as love from a S.O., maybe even better. 

 

3. GO OUT!

On Valetine’s weekend, there are a ton of different parties out there! Go to a fun color themed one, where you get to wear green if you’re single, yellow if it’s complicated, or red if you’re taken! It’s a sure way to have fun, and maybe meet someone new! 

Remember, just because you’re single this year for V-Day, doesn’t mean you can’t have a great time! Besides, it’s basically just like any other day, right?
