Valentine\u2019s Day is just round the corner which means so is the unnecessary pressure of finding a date. It\u2019s not like you’re overly fussed about the date itself \u2013 but you wouldn\u2019t mind saving face, or even just looking busy on Insta when it seems the majority of your feed is swimming in snaps of \u2018the boy did good\u2019.<\/p>\n

Calling out to all solo flyers, there are plenty of reasons to enjoy Valentine\u2019s Day when you\u2019re not coupled up \u2013 and they have sweet FA to do with flowers\u2026<\/p>\n

1. Your bank account won\u2019t take a hit, which means you can spend your money on someone who is more than worth it. YOU.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

2. You don\u2019t have to stress about planning any romantic gestures for BAE.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

3. There\u2019s no need to sit there and smile through gritted teeth when you receive a stuffed animal (which you\u2019ll probably give to your dog), chocolates (added love handles), edible underwear (WTF?) and enough flowers to send you into anaphylactic shock.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

4. You can have a date with your girls. No pressure of awkward first dates, you can eat like your life depends on it.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

5. Chocolate and wine are an acceptable tea time replacement \u2018Nuff said.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

6. You can do whatever YOU want to, whether that’s a date with your bed and a jar or Nutella, or grabbing your heels and hitting the town.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

7. You are the ruler of the remote.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

8. You don\u2019t have to deal with awkward PDA’s.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

9. You are not a stereotype e.g. #bae #roses #cards #chocolates #halfpriceprosecco<\/p>\n

(Ok\u2026 we\u2019ll take the half price Prosecco)<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

10. Best of all\u2026 a time for reflection. Time to relive and burn mementos from past relationships (literally, if you wish!). Take a mo to be proud of how far you have come as the independent woman you are.<\/p>\n

\n
\"10<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
