What to Do on St Valentine’s Day if You Don’t Have a Date

What to Do on St Valentine’s Day if You Don’t Have a Date

February 14th is a time to celebrate love and those who have been struck by cupid’s arrow. Nothing is more romantic than flowers, candy and time with the ones we love. Many people look forward to this day to celebrate significant relationships and to spend time together. However, there are many people who will not have dates this Valentine’s day. Those who find themselves without love or a date may want to take matters into their own hands.

Only The Lonely Can Play

If one finds themselves unattached to the old ball and chain this Valentine’s Day, they should not despair. There are other ways to get involved in the spirit of the day and maybe even find love. Gathering a group of friends for game night is a terrific way to have a enjoyable evening. There are several games that can be played including the kissing game, which can possibly swing cupid’s arrow one’s way. It is possible to find love interests in the strangest of places, locked in a lip lock is a excellent way to feel a connection and some heat. It is all about having fun and forgetting that one does not have a date to have a fun and memorable evening.

The Dating Game

Many people love the dating game. Gathering some friends together for a game of this nature can be crazy fun. Made popular as a TV game show back in 1965, this game was trying to give love a little push in the right direction. The show paired a single woman against three eligible bachelors. After talking and finding out if there were common interests, they could then further pursue a date and additional time together. It is easy to recreate this game show right in the comfort of one’s living room. Having friends over of both genders can make for a great evening. Pairing up handsome bachelors with bachelorettes is better than mixing love potion #9.

Playing Virtual Games

For those who do not have a group of friends who are available, it is possible to find love virtually. Playing this game, it is easy to find love right in cyberland. The object of the game is to get as many people to fall for the player as they can. The game is all about collecting hearts. Visiting this unique website is all about love and finding Mr. Right. When visiting My Candy Love website, one can make romantic e-cards or even play makeover games.

All is fair in the game of love and war, but just because one finds themselves unattached, does not mean they cannot have a lovely Valentine’s Day. Because emotions can run high on this day, avoid calling or e-mailing an ex-lover just to find out how they are doing. Many people do things on this day that they could regret, all in the name of love. Enjoy this celebration of love, whether attached or not. Once a person finds that certain someone, it will make all the Valentine’s Day’s spent alone just a distant memory.

Single on Valentine’s Day? How to Enjoy Your Day in a Big Way!

Bellaisa / February 2, 2012 / Singles /10 Comments

Being single on Valentine’s Day always comes with a twinge of apprehension. Not because you feel horrible that you are single or because you are longing for a relationship. Nope. It’s because Valentine’s Day is so publicized and talked about that you feel like you are being left out of something as important as Christmas! So here are 5 tips to help you make the most out of YOUR holiday in your own unique way.

1. Don’t Spend Valentine’s Day Alone

Valentine’s Day is supposed to be about spending time with a loved one. There’s no rule that says your loved one has to be sleeping with you though!

Get together with your friends or family and really enjoy your time together. Take the day to appreciate your loved ones and what they mean to you – and go ahead and buy them the cheesy heart pillows or chocolates. They will appreciate it and feel loved by you and that’s an important feeling to have when you love someone – anyone.

2. Buy Yourself Some Valentine’s Day Presents

One of the great things about Valentine’s Day is that it is that businesses know that people are going to be buying stuff for their loved ones. This means that sales and specials are happening everywhere you look, and that means that you can buy yourself that perfume or cologne you’ve been wanting but have been putting off because of the price!

Treat yourself with some gifts that YOU want, and remember that there will be a lot of woman and men out there getting gifts they don’t really want from their partner. You, on the other hand, will be pleasantly surprised at how well you know yourself!

3. Don’t Watch the Sappy Love Movies

There are going to be a lot of love stories on TV for the night, and you may want to avoid them. Even if you are not looking for love at this moment, you will most likely not enjoy watching a love story that ends with two people living happily ever after. Plus the bumps along the road in the movie may just piss you off as you remember past relationships and the bumps in them.

Instead of watching the love stories, give your heart a break; head to the movies with your friends to watch the new horror or comedy that has come out recently. Make sure that it’s got nothing to do with a love story because your mind has already been bombarded with sappy love stuff all day long.

4. Don’t Call Your Ex Up Just To Chat

You may get reminded of a past relationship on Valentine’s Day and decide that it’s a good idea to call up your ex and have a chat, but it’s not! Your ex may think you are calling because of Valentine’s Day and wonder what your intentions really are. They may also feel awkward and put on the spot if they think that you are calling because you are still into them – and they may say something stupid that upsets you. Then you will be in an all out fight with your ex and feel even worse before you called them! Avoid your ex and talk to your current friends.

5. Go Out and Look For Love if You Are Actually Looking

If you are actively looking for love then this is a great day to go out and find someone special. There are going to be lots of special events happening in your area that will be focused on singles and hooking up – and you can bet that everyone at these events is going to be pumped up to find love!

Take a chance on love today and see if you can find Mr. or Mrs. Right. Who knows you just may meet someone who you end up staying with forever, and it will be really cool to say you met on Valentine’s Day!

Obsessed With Someone?

Why Being Obsessed With Someone is a Bad, Bad Thing!

Obsessed With Someone?

Many of us have been obsessed with someone in our lives. We want them so bad that we think about them day and night. We talk about them, fantasize about them, and dream about them. It’s fun to picture getting together with this person and entering a relationship with them.

But being obsessed with someone can be really unhealthy in the short and long run.

Following are just a few reasons why being obsessed with someone can cause you more damage than good.

1. When you become obsessed with someone you start to lose focus on the rest of your life.

Your focus is what drives your life forward. If you put some focus on your health then you will take care of your health, if you put some focus on your work then you will succeed in work, but if you focus on someone to the point of obsession then you will not be able to focus on any other area of your life.

A successful and happy life has balance. Balance means that your focus in shared between your work and personal life. You can’t feel normal and balanced without paying attention to all of your life’s needs equally.

2. Being obsessed with someone can cause you to not appreciate your relationship with them
If you pay too much attention to some aspect about them then you end up missing out on all the other things they have to offer you in the way of relationship. For instance, if you focus on wanting them to love you then you may miss the added happiness they bring to your life, even if they don’t love you yet.

Try focusing on what they do for you and appreciate it without obsessing about it. For instance, if they make you smile then appreciate the fact that they make you smile, but don’t obsess about wanting them to make you laugh. Appreciate what is in front of you without NEEDING to have more. This is when you usually get more of what you enjoy anywase.

3. You can scare them away by being obsessed!

Being obsessed with someone is not just apparent to you, it will be apparent to your friends, family, and especially the person you are obsessed with!

Obsession can cause you to do creepy things like call them and hang up, stare at them, and act like a fool around them. They will not be attracted to this behavior, but rather they will be scared to bits of this behavior. They will run, not walk, the other way and you will lose them most likely forever.

4. Being obsessed with someone can cause problems like depression.

If you become so obsessed with someone that you can’t live without them in your life then you may struggle with many negative emotions during your obsession. If these negative emotions get drawn out for a long period you can start to suffer from stress and/or depression.

Stress can cause a whole host of problems on your body like sickness.
Depression can cause you to not enjoy your life but rather feel bad about it.

Nobody should have the power to make you sick or depressed! You have the power to shift your focus from being obsessed with someone to not being obsessed.
