That dreaded love day is approaching, Valentine's Day. If you're single, like me, that day might put you in your feels. However, it doesn't have to be that way! There's tons of things you can do as a single person to preoccupy your time on Valentine' Day.
1. Spend time with friends, GALENTINE'S DAY!
Plan a dinner out, or a night in with friends. It's easy to sit in the house, and sulk about your loneliness. Valentine's Day can be about any type of love you share with others in your life.

People Watch - A lot of people don't enjoy going to bars or restaurants by themselves. However, I find it entertaining. People watching is my favorite past time, because us humans are interesting creatures. Here are places I do my best people watching:
