Some Ideas on How to Treat Yourself on Valentine's Day
Whether you're single or not, be like Donna Meagle and Tom Haverford today.
I broke up with my college boyfriend at age 24 and didn’t meet Zac until I was 33, which means for 9 years, I was single on Valentine’s Day. Even if I was dating someone, it didn’t matter because it wasn’t for real and Valentine’s was never a real thing between us (also, I’m pretty positive I was never actually dating someone on Valentine’s Day. The universe made sure those stars never aligned).
My best video work depicting my general Valentine’s mood was in 2017 at the height of my singlehood. My office threw a V-Day party where they served cupcakes and beer, and I responded appropriately ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Is Valentine’s Day stupid? Yes. Is it a made up holiday? Yes. Is it really just a chance for Hallmark and Nestle and Hershey’s and Target and every other retailer and big distributor in the world to capitalize on their capitalism and sell the shit out of red and pink themed everything? Of course.
But, there are treats and I do happen to love red and pink, so I don’t hate it. And today, whether you’re single or not, I wanted to share some easy ways to treat yourself on the day of lurve.
