2. Treat yourself

What rule book says you only have to show love to someone else on Valentine’s Day? You’re worth loving too. So treat yourself to a spa day, new hairstyle or something super special you have always wanted to buy for yourself.

3. Plan a getaway

Take a trip to a different state with friends or family members and make a whole different type of memories.

4. Make someone else’s day special

You don’t have to bury the romantic part of you on Valentine’s Day just because you’re single. You can help another couple set up a special day. For example, let your parents know how much you love them by helping them plan a romantic dinner.

8. Go on a date

Just because there will be no kissing at the end of it doesn’t mean you have to ditch the whole idea of a date altogether. Wear something fancy, go out with your friend(s) and enjoy the atmosphere.

9. Share the love

Compose a heartwarming message and send to everyone you love. It can be the perfect opportunity to let them know you care.
