Every other day, you are a wholly contented, happily independent human, then Valentine's day shows up in your week, and suddenly, you feel like it's there to point you out as the only person on planet earth who is not intimately tied to another human.
However, as much as it's awesome to couple up and spend the most romantic day of the year with your partner, there are many advantages to be single too. Here is why:
1. Your wallet won't suffer for love
Valentine's day is very expensive.
While couples are wasting money on expensive overpriced gifts and dinner dates, your wallet won't take a hit because you are not pressured into buying anything or treating someone.
The money you will save on this day will make you realise singlehood is worth it.
2. You won't be stressed about planning a massive romantic gesture
Tell me a better feeling than being happy in your own company while other people are busy stressing if whatever they have planned is romantic enough or if their partners will enjoy it.
3.More free time
Valentine's day is not a one-day commitment; it takes people weeks to plan for that event.
But the good news is, if you are single, you can spend all that time doing something else that you love.
4. You won't have to wait for someone to gift you your favourite snacks
There is nothing as disappointing as waiting for someone to buy you your favourite chocolate or snacks then they snub you.
Be single, buy your own chocolates, avoid disappointments.
5. You get to do whatever you want to do
Being single also means February 14 is just a regular day like any other.
You are not obligated to go on some date with someone while trying extra hard to be romantic.
You can just spend the day doing what you love doing.
Who's winning now?
