Valentine’s Day is only a day away and I am sure it is stirring up various types of emotions in just about everyone. I have several married friends who are super excited to send their kids off to mom’s, so they can enjoy a romantic dinner with the hubby, and do some well needed snuggling. I also have friends who are anxiously hoping their boyfriends will surprise them with something huge like a lovely piece of jewelry or a nice trip to the spa. Then you have the sassy singles, such as me, who are either dreading the next few days or looking forward to them.
I used to be #Teamdread during the month of February. However, over the past few years I decided to change my way of thinking, and instead of dreading this time take advantage of it and enjoy it! Don’t get me wrong I am looking forward to the day when my soul mate arrives, but until then I have decided to enjoy my time as much as possible. I figure I would rather be happy and single than with the wrong person and miserable. My last serious relationship lasted for six years and five of them was one big ball of misery. So, on that note I welcome any holiday that reminds me to celebrate myself.
Check out a few things that I love doing alone or with my single friends on Valentine’s Day.
VALENTINE’S DAY: 5 WAYS FOR SINGLES TO CELEBRATE!
1. Take a Flight or Road Trip
Catch a flight or gas up a fun ride, crank up the music and hit the road. It doesn’t matter if you go alone or with a handful of your other single peeps…Just go have a good time! You won’t be sorry!
2. Send Love to Someone
Although you are probably OK with your singleness, there may be someone in your tribe that is still struggling. So spread the love and send them a nice bouquet of flowers, some chocolates, and a funny card to make them laugh or just call to wish them a Happy Valentine’s Day. I guarantee it will put a smile on their face.
3. Do Something Adventurous
Valentine’s Day would be the perfect time to do something adventurous. Take a helicopter ride, go hot air ballooning or bungee jump. Just have fun and live in the moment.
4. Spa Day/Weekend
Who doesn’t love a spa day! Getting your mind and body worked over will leave you feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world!

5. Shopping and Lunch Please
Go shopping! Buy something you have been drooling over and Rock It and then have lunch! If you are feeling a little leery about the whole shopping/dining in experience due to Covid. On-line shopping and Curb-side ordering can be just as forefeeling. Remember it is all about your mindset.
So ladies and gents, if you are feeling some type of way about being single on V-Day it’s understandable, but chill out and just know that the right person is out there. They are going to show up when you least expect, but until that happens ENJOY YOUR SINGLENESS and roll with it!
So Sassy Singles, do you have any special plans the Valentine’s Day? If so, what are they? Inquiring minds want to know?
Happy V-Day!!!!! And Remember to Always… Stay Sassy!
