Beat the Valentine’s Day Blues with this Gesture
Hey, singles — this year, we’re beating the Valentine’s Day blues by treating ourselves — with self-love, of course! Who needs a partner anyway?
There are billions of single people in the world, and yet none of them have publicly boycotted Valentine’s Day. Hmm? That tells me there is still hope in the world for love after all. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to have a significant other to enjoy the designated day of love. You can cater to yourself! This may even be better. This year you will get exactly the gift you want, and you don’t have to worry about playing the “What will he or she want?” guessing game. That in itself is a gift!
Whether it be a trip, a piece of jewelry, or a pair of shoes, you have an excuse to treat yourself. Not that you need one. In the famous words of everyone on Instagram, “Treat yo’self.” I’m sure there is a little something you have always wanted and whether it is in reach or not, you can take strides to get exactly what you want. If you want to visit Bali, hire a travel professional, save your money, and make it happen. Or if you want to do something a little more lowkey, you can hire a staff who will cater to your needs for the night. Hire a chef, a massage therapist, a nail technician, and a hairstylist to pamper to you! And if that may be too fussy for you, you can buy yourself some of your favorite candy, cook your favorite meal, and pull up your favorite show on Netflix. It’s the simple things that make us smile. So if you want you can start there!
See! You don’t have to be attached to participate in the month of love. This year instead of getting down on yourself, wondering why you are still single, celebrate the love you have for yourself!
