VDay tips for singles

1 . Fall in love with a new activity

Interested in taking up yoga ? Want to learn how to dance ballet ? Wish you could cook risotto ? Challenge yourself to do something you haven ' t done before or seldom get to do because of your schedule

2 . Send love someone else ' s way .

Studies show that kindness spreads , so start an epidemic . Give Valentine ' s Day cards to those close to you , like your co-workers and friends , as well as those not so close to you , like the barista who serves you your coffee .
Not the Hallmark type ? Volunteer locally and help those less fortunate than you . Seeing a face light up from your small gesture will fill you with love and make the world a better place .

3 . Throw a party .

If gift-giving won ' t go over with your group , invite your friends over to celebrate being fabulous and single , or even plan a dinner for all your single friends

4 . Help yourself

Finish ( or start ) something you ' ve been meaning to tackle . Secure that promotion you ' re after at work , get your finances in order , or rearrange your bookshelf by color .

5 . Indulge in yourself

cook your favorite meal , buy that bottle of wine you have been wanting to try , do whatever you want , be it pampering yourself with a lavish mani-pedi or staying home , ordering take out and binge-watching every movie your celeb crush has ever made . Or binge-watch a full season of your favorite TV show on Netflix . After all , you have no one to please but your own self .
