Valentine’s Day attracts a lot of attention and criticism. Couples are seen enjoying and celebrating the day of love in their own sweet way. However, it’s important to remember that another group of people also exists on this planet—SINGLES. Valentine’s (V) Day has become such a big deal that singles often feel like running away from all the hype. I agree that some couples can be overly cheesy and excessively public in expressing their love, making the entire affair quite unbearable for singles.
But singles, worry not! This post is dedicated specifically to you. We’re here to make things easier and ensure you have fun on Valentine’s Day. Here are some enjoyable activities designed just for singles:
1. Travel
Why not use this day for a bit of soul-searching? Take out your car or bike and go for a long drive. This might refresh your mood and help you feel more connected with yourself. If you’re feeling extravagant, take a week-long break and travel to your favourite destination.
2. Catch Up
Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to reconnect with old friends. Plan a get-together, surprise them, or simply pay them a visit. You can also exchange gifts and reminisce about the good times. Just make sure your friends are also single before making plans!
3. Cook
If you are the one who find spice in cooking then you can definitely try cooking. Make something of your choice and surprise yourself with your culinary skills. This would be the perfect time to make that special thing for you and make yourself feel special. You can also invite your neighbours or your favourite couple to share a bite with them.
4. Reading
If you are a Bibliophile then this is your day. V day is not only about celebrating with your partner. It is also about celebrating with your love. So, if you love yourself or you love special activity then this is the day. Buy your favourite book and get indulged in some reading session. This is your time and you need to enjoy it fully.
5. Start some Activity
If you have some deep thoughts pondering in your mind since very long then this is the time for you. Indulge or get enrolled in the task or classes that you have been delaying since very long. This is the perfect time to fall in love with yourself once and for all.
6. Health Check-Up
Loving yourself also means taking care of your health. Use this day to schedule a full-body check-up. If the results reveal any health concerns, consult your doctor and take the necessary precautions.
7. Spread love
Valentine’s Day is about love, and love is best when shared. Visit a nearby charity, orphanage, or senior home to spend time with those who need love and care more than you do. If possible, dedicate your entire day to this cause—it might just change your perspective on life.
8. Visit Your Parents
With today’s busy lifestyles, we often miss out on special moments with our parents. Many of us live far from them, so why not use this day to visit the true loves of your life? Surprise them, take them out, or give them a gift. Seeing their happiness will remind you of the purest form of love.
