1. Netflix and Ice Cream
What's better than Netflix and chill? Netflix and ice cream! Ice cream is better than any boo or bae in my book. Grab your favorite ice cream, open up your laptop and indulge yourself in some great movies and frozen milk. I recommend Talenti gelato, it is literally the best thing ever. Also, here is a list of amazing must see Netflix movies:
- Twinsters
- Pulp Fiction
- Beyond the Lights (Sap movie, I know :/ )
- Training Day
- Forest Gump
- The Wood
- Coming to America
- Mean Girls
- Grease
- What Happened, Miss Simone?
And of course you can binge watch some TV shows: Making a Murderer, OITNB, A Different World, Jane the Virgin, The Bernie Mac show and many more!
2. Go on a date with your friends
My favorite Valentine's day was when my friends and I dressed up (we stunted on everybody and their momma) and went to dinner at a nice restaurant. Get your best single girl friends together, hop on groupon and have fun! Take a pole dancing class, paint and drink at Sip and Strokes, go bowling, listen to poetry at a club, have a picnic, or take a road trip. Your girl friends will take your mind off of being lonely on VDay and help you realize that it's truly just another day of the year.
3. Throw a party
Why be sap when you could have a lit Vday? Throw a pink and red themed party Vday weekend and invite everyone (single and cuffed). Have chocolate refreshments, drinks, cards and a playlist full of Future and Luther Vandross... it would probably be the best function ever.
4. Try something new
Do something you have never done before.. try Yoga, knitting, read a new book, build a house, or make a bucket list and start scratching off stuff!
5. Shop
There is nothing like retail therapy. The end.
