Okay, we all know (at least most of us) that Valentine’s Day chocolate is amazing!
However, you do not have anyone to give you any of that chocolatey delight, nor do you have
anyone to give these sweeties to. Well, guess what! You don’t need anyone to enjoy sweets with
because you can get some for yourself, or you can give it to someone who might need it with a
note saying it is from a friend. After all, you are more amazing than those chocolates and should
be proud of yourself, even though you may be single! You know what? You deserve better! That
is why I will give you some extra tips on feeling good about yourself on Valentine’s!
However, you do not have anyone to give you any of that chocolatey delight, nor do you have

note saying it is from a friend. After all, you are more amazing than those chocolates and should
be proud of yourself, even though you may be single! You know what? You deserve better! That
is why I will give you some extra tips on feeling good about yourself on Valentine’s!
Tip number one: Remember that just because you don’t have a date doesn’t mean you
don’t look good. You can look perfectly great and have an amazing personality, and perhaps the
reason why no one wants to date you is because you are such a great friend. After all, if you date
someone, it might make things more awkward if you break up and ruin the amazing friendship
you have.
Tip number two: If it is painful to watch people be on dates when you go outside, don’t go
outside! There is no shame in staying indoors like the rest of us. Your mental health comes first
before anything else! Play some video games, watch movies, read books, back snacks, or do
something else to pass the time.
Tip number three: Know that you are saving so much money by not spending on an
overly commercialized holiday. Plus, you are also saving time by not having to wait in crowded
places for a Valentine’s Day reservation where prices also go up high. Also, if you want cheap
candy, this is perfect for you because you can spend your hard-earned money (or your parents) to
buy some discounted snacks! Remember, we all respect the grind.

Tip number four: If you are still feeling lonely on Valentine’s Day, you are not alone.
There are many others alone on Valentine’s Day like you! Perhaps you just haven’t met the right
person yet, and that is fine because it is better to go out with someone you love than lead another
on.
Tip number five: When none of these tips work, embrace it with knowledge. Now, if
anyone rudely asks you where your Valentine’s date is, just reply with, “I am celebrating
Arizona’s birthday instead of some over-commercialized holiday where the only ones getting true
love are the corporations that are making bank off of people’s emotions.”
Well, I hope I have made you feel better! Stay safe, and do not feel distressed about not
having a date. Take today as a day to love yourself. Anyway, I wish you a wonderful Arizona’s
birthday…
