What’s all the fuss about Valentines?
As the 14th February approaches, many people’s thoughts turn to Valentine’s Day.  For some, it’s day to enjoy with a partner, but for many singles it can be quite a depressing time! In fact, some people refer to Valentine’s as Singles Awareness Day…aka SAD.
But it really doesn’t need to be that way. In fact, it can be the best day of the year if you in the right mindset.
Here are some top tips to help you get the most out of it:
1) Instead of feeling frustrated for not having a significant other to spend the day, singles can spend Valentine’s Day in a constructive manner by expressing love and affection for people around them. Be greatful for the people you have in your life, not the ones you don’t.
2) Be your own Valentine. Give yourself a special treat, such as booking a spa session, cooking your favourite meal or buy a new outfit. You need to be able to love yourself before you can ever truly anyone else.
3) Do not define yourself by your relationship status. Your relationship status is not your identity!
4) For the ultimate feelgood factor, do something great for somebody else. You’ll feel amazing if you go out of your way to help another person. Perhaps you could have tea with a lonely elderly relative or donate your time to a local charity.
5) Get out there and enjoy yourself. Valentine’s Day if probably THE best day of the year for singles. You’ll have more free cash, more time and less pressure than couples, so make the most of it! Get your other single friends together and hit the bars where all the other singles will be partying.
