When you talk about Valentine’s week or day, romantic dinners, flowers, exchanging gifts, and sweet gestures between couples. But what about the ones who are single and have no one to share or celebrate their day with? Well, being single doesn’t mean that you’ll miss out on the fun of Valentine’s week because there are some exciting activities for you that you can opt to do during this time.
While some single as well as mingled people find this time to be exhausting, troublesome, and unnecessary, you can enjoy yourself even if you don’t have a partner. If you are wondering how then scroll down to unveil the treasure trove of ideas that’ll make you feel like being single is exciting and fun.
1] Prepare A Romantic Dinner For Other Couples At Home
So what if you don’t have a partner to celebrate Valentine’s Day? There will definitely be some couples in your house, like your parents, brother and sister-in-law, uncle-aunt, and grandparents. If so, then you can plan and prepare a romantic dinner date for them to spend some quality time with each other. Single people are the best cupids, so you must act like one and decorate your home in a way that gives out romantic vibes and lets the couples enjoy their moments.
2] Plan A Date With Your Best Friend
For people who do not have boyfriends or girlfriends, their best friend is everything, so why don’t you plan a date with your best friend? Not only Valentine’s Day, but you can celebrate the whole week with them by giving them Teddy Day, Chocolate Day, Rose Day gift, and so on. There is nothing better than going out with the person who knows you the most inside out and spending your day roaming here and there while doing your combined favourite activities.
3] Organize A Singles-only Party
It is not like you are the only single person in your group; there must be others who belong to the same category, too. You all can plan a singles-only party for Valentine’s Day, as there is no written rule that this day is only for couples. Since all your friends who are in a relationship will be busy with their partners, you can host a party for your single friends where you play games, have delicious food, share your stories, and find potential partners for each other.
4] Go Out Of The Town And Explore Different Places
If you are tired of staying home for Valentine’s week, then you can pack your bags and take off on a mini trip to explore the neighbouring cities, states, or countries. You can visit some popular places to witness the unique Lover’s Day traditions of the place or be a part of an adventurous trekking. When you are going to travel, you can either go on a solo trip or tag along with your single buddies so that you guys can enjoy together because these days won’t come back once you get mingled.
5] Offer To Babysit
If any couple in your neighbourhood is planning to celebrate their Valentine’s Day but are hesitant because they have a baby at home and can’t leave them, then you can offer to babysit. This will be a win-win situation for both of you as you will get something to do on the day instead of getting bored, and the couples will be able to go out without any worries. Another good thing about this idea is that you will make a few bucks while giving your time to care for the baby, which can be the pocket money for your own solo party.
6] An Act Of Kindness Towards Someone
Valentine’s Day is not limited to couples these days because now you can celebrate it with your friends, parents, siblings, and crushes. However, if you do not have a partner, then you can bring a smile to someone’s face by giving them valentine week gifts. For example, you can visit old age homes or orphanages and give specific gifts to the ones living there. This act of kindness will not only bring happiness to their face but also give you a sense of achievement and accomplishment towards creating a better society.
7] Watch Concert Of Your Favourite Band
The best way to spend your time on Valentine’s Day is to be with your idol or favourite singer. No, you definitely don’t have to know or contact them personally to make your day special, but you can spend time with them virtually. Watching their concert while decorating your room according to the vibe is the best option that you can consider. For example, if you are a BTS fan, then you can decorate your room with purple lights, stick some photo cards of the band members and project their concerts on your wall while enjoying their songs.
8] Go Shopping And Buy Accessories That You Want
You don’t have a partner who can take you shopping on Valentine’s Day? Don’t worry; you don’t need one because you can go all by yourself and pamper yourself with stuff and goodies that you love and have always wanted. There will be no restriction if you can’t buy this or that so you can shop at ease and get everything that you wish for. Whether it is an accessory, clothing, gadget, or food item, you can take yourself on a solo date and enjoy the day all by yourself.
Outlook
In conclusion, don’t get jealous of the people who are in a relationship and get the opportunity to celebrate this day with their sweethearts. Your love starts by loving yourself, and even if you are single, you can enjoy this day with your friends, family, and siblings. So whether you act as a cupid, go on a date with your best friend, explore the neighbourhood, offer to babysit, or go shopping for your favourite goodies, you have plenty of options to make your day happy and happening without having a Valentine.
