The Single Girls Guide To A Happy Valentines Day

Let's face it, Valentine's Day can be a rough holiday if your single. From being bombarded to death on television by adverts and out and about in shops it can be a time when being single can be a tad crap. It's not all doom and gloom though; I've taken a completely different approach to things. Who said Valentines just has to be for couples?

This Valentine's I decided to show my best friend just how much I value her. Chloe's been there for me through alot; a real testament to her great character and kindness. I got her a few gifts as a surprise; a gift set, a pair of disney socks and a hilarious card (thanks to Clintons).

She even got few a few things; a big set of candles (for the pyromaniac tendencies I have), a card and a big dog teddy as I was getting a puppy later that weekend. To save the kitchen from disaster I ordered in a chinese from our favourite in Belfast - Nom Nom Noodles. Afterwards we went out to Lavery's for some mad dancing. All in all, a great night.

Tips To Survive Valentine's Day

1. Avoid scrolling through social media (especially Facebook) on the day. Will only cause a state of depression.
2. Do invest in snacks and ice-cream and have a duvet day. Easy way to avoid the day, vegetate and not leave the house. 
3. Spend time with friends;  friends will always cheer eachother up.
4. Head out with friends for drinks; alcohol always helps. 
5. Enjoy what you have in life, if your single your more than likely to be happy about it.
