Alone on Valentines Day

Has this happened to you? On Valentine’s you’re all alone and you just see couples everywhere. Many people face this problem every year on Valentine’s day and especially on this day it’s a constant reminder that you are single and all alone. This problem is a constant struggle to many of us and I’m going to give you some tips on surviving Valentine’s day as a loner!

The biggest priority getting through Valentine’s day is to not be in public at all costs! You’ll see couples everywhere at the mall, the local fast food place, and the park. You need to be away from these people because they’ll look at you weird for being alone on Valentine’s day. You may even see people you know and they’ll laugh and insult your loneliness. So the biggest priority is to stay in your room because you won’t encounter couples anywhere there.

When you are in your room there’s nothing really much to do but it’s better than being outside. Watching television is a big “no” because most channels are going to be focused on romantic shows so I wouldn’t recommend it. Of course, playing video games is possibly the only solution to where you won’t see anything romantic unless you play romantic games. Video games can probably get your mind off of the day. If you don’t play video games, watch YouTube channels where people talk about being alone just like me because it makes me feel better. It shows that I’m not alone and there’s even famous people facing this epidemic. I suggest watching Nigahiga because he’s a loner just like myself.

Another thing you can do to avoid Valentine’s day is to not remind yourself of the holiday. Some years I’m such a loner I forget that there’s even a holiday of love that exists. If you do forget Valentine’s day then it’ll be easy for you to avoid it. Although some people will remind you about it like teachers and friends. You should just ignore them, I’m joking.

The biggest solution to get through Valentine’s day is to treat yourself. Be proud you’re alone, live up to it. Being alone isn’t the end of the world and you should be glad. Be glad you don’t have to pay for your date on Valentine’s day. Be glad you are free to do whatever you want and are not bound to be with your boyfriend/girlfriend. If you aren’t glad about it then think about it like this, your Valentine’s is you because you need to love yourself before you love others.
