Ideas for an "Anti-Valentine's Day" that are Not Lame.

Instead of staying in your pajamas, ordering Chinese food, and watching some lame movie marathon, go out a celebrate being single on February 14th...

  1. Love Yourself: Splurge and head to the fanciest local spa for a message or facial. Get your hair done or get a mani- pedi. Why not do all four? Hey, you deserve the best!
  2. Find Something New to Love: Sign up for a new classes like yoga, dance, Zumba, or cooking. Don't like to attend classes? Stop into a store you have never tried before or go to a local park you have never visited.
  3. Get Out There: Attend a concert or play!  Here is a list of live events going on in NYC Thursday the 14th from eventful.com.
  4. Grab Dinner with friends: Gather up all of your single friends and go get drinks and dinner at a local low key dinner to celebrate the love you all share as friends. 
  5. Take Parents or Grandparents out for Lunch: Taking out a parent or grandparent that is single would not only make their day, but give you a loving mate to eat a great meal with.
  6. Go to the Movies: Steer clear of romantic flix that will be filled with lovebirds. Two great movies that will be out on Valentine's Day include Identity Thief & Sound City.
  7. Throw a "Flirt Fest": Why not have a party? Make a Facebook event and invite your single friends from different social circles for drinks and dinner. Tell them to invite their single friends to join the event. It may be a night to make some new friends, or you may find a date for next weekend.  

Cheers,
     Charm.
