Stupid Cupid

If you’re single or dateless on Valentine’s Day – embrace that!

Valentine’s Day is not JUST for couples – it’s for all of us! According to psychologist Laura S. Brown, single men and women should be enjoying it too. Here are her suggestions:

• Remember that Valentine’s Day is a commercial holiday. Think of all the money you’re saving on candy, flowers and gifts.

• If you are single and don’t want to be – Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to work on a productive strategy. Define exactly what kind of relationship you’d like - and commit to taking some steps to make that more likely.

• If you are single and loving it – Valentine’s Day is a nice time to reach out to another single friend who might be feeling lonely. If there’s a couple you really admire – it’s a great day to let them know it.
