1) EXCHANGE GIFTS WITH FRIENDS, FAMILY AND COLLEAGUES

Valentines in its originality is a season of love and giving, don’t wait until you have a romantic partner to show the people around you love.  From gifting yourself the number one thing you have always wanted and to gifting your friends and family a few red gifts to commemorate the occasion, imbibe the gift-giving culture towards them.  You can also get a few treats and draft kind words to share with your single co-workers this season.

2) SLEEP

Another great thing to do on this day like every other day is to sleep , sleep turn off your phone and put it on DND. Block out the social media rave on valentine’s day, take time off from distractions and go straight to bed.

3) GO ON A SOLO-DATE

Before getting a romantic partner, love and appreciate yourself first , so that you don’t rely on someone for your happiness and get heart-broken for the umpteenth time. Go on a date to the place you’ve been trying to get into for months. Spoil yourself and don’t forget to take yourself for a shopping spree, get some chocolates and wine while you are at it. You deserve it.

4) INVITE YOUR FRIENDS FOR EVENTS

Invite your friends out for events, you could organize a games night for your friends or bring your own board night get together for your friends to sit , unwind and relax from all of the crazes the day brings.
