For some, Valentine's Day can't go away quick enough. Going to work is hard when it feels like all of your coworkers are being gifted with flowers and chocolates. You open up Instagram or Facebook and immediately regret it. Once again you are bombarded with pictures of couples in love and romantic gestures that have been done to your friends. For the millionth time today you are reminded that you are single.
You are just about to cave into a dark place of self pity and binge on a bag of Doritos, but then you look at your phone and go through your contact list. Wow! You are suddenly reminded of the army of friends that you have. While being single on Valentines is hard, knowing that you have great friends softens the blow. You put the bag of chips back in your pantry and you decide to do something special for yourself! Buy yourself a massage, or chocolates or a new outfit. Celebrate yourself and do something for yourself that you wouldn't normally do.
Friends, just because you have a valentine doesn't mean that everyone else does. If you have a friend that is single this Valentine's day I encourage you to get them a card, shoot them a text or bring them a coffee. Everyone wants to be loved and those that are single need to be reminded that they are special and loved too.
