Valentine’s Day is Sunday, February 14th. To help you celebrate (or survive it), I’ll be sharing a few posts filled with ideas and perhaps…inspiration, leading up to the love-filled day! Enjoy the first post in this V-day series, and be on the lookout for more soon!
What to do when you’re single:
Decide to do something special for yourself on that day, and you might even look forward to it.
– Buy yourself chocolates
-Send yourself flowers…”For me, from me” 😘
-Get dressed up for YOU or treat yourself to shopping
-Babysit for a couple who may need a night out. What better way to help someone else celebrate too. You can play and laugh yourself silly!
-Deliver valentines…Can you think of anyone who might need a special sign of love and affection right now?
-Fondue…Dip strawberries in chocolate…yum!

-Netflix and Ice Cream 
-Create a playlist and listen to your favorite Valentine’s songs
Here are a few of my favorite love songs:
- Like Real People Do by Hozier
- Xo by John Mayer
- Come to Me by The Goo Goo Dolls
- I’m Yours by Jason Mraz
- Love on Top by Beyoncé
Other suggestions…
- Get together with friends for dinner or meet for coffee/tea
- Pretend it’s a normal day (though it might be difficult with hearts, flowers and starry-eyed couples everywhere you look)
The point is…be good to yourself and you’ll enjoy the day!
xo, Liv
