Everyone wants to have fun on Valentine’s Day, whether they are single, dating, or married. This insightful list can provide some fun ideas of what to do this Valentine’s Day, no matter what your relationship status is. First, I will list the couple’s option, followed by the single’s version. Some will include helpful hints.

1:

Couples: Stare longingly into each other’s eyes.

Singles: Stare longingly at the couple staring longingly into each other’s eyes.

2:

Couples: Go on a romantic date.

Singles: Go on a romantic date with yourself, or surprise your favorite couple by third-wheeling on their date.

Helpful hint: It’s better to ask forgiveness than permission. 

3:

Couples: Snuggle intensely and make everyone in the great room uncomfortable.

Singles: Make the couple in the great room, as well as everyone else, uncomfortable, by joining in on the intense snuggling.

4:

Couples: Think about what to get for your valentine.

Singles: Think about what you would like to get from any valentine.

5:

Couples: Buy each other cute little gifts.

Singles: Confuse your favorite couple by also buying them cute little gifts.

6:

Couples: Get your valentine flowers and chocolate.

Singles: Get yourself flowers and chocolate.

7:

Couples: Go on a moonlit walk.

Singles: Unbeknownst to them, follow your favorite couple on their moonlit walk.

Helpful hint: Proceed to be their photographer without telling them. Take pictures which they will cherish forever, after you make the couple pay for them. Make enough money to buy the aforementioned chocolate and flowers for yourself. 

8:

Couples: Have a picnic in a local park.

Singles: Eat ramen in your bed.

Helpful hint: Try not to spill it on your blanket. 

9:

Couples: Spend time together.

Singles: Since you have so much time to yourself, choose which platform to use for your latest online dating profile.

Helpful hint: Maybe avoid Tinder. 

10:

Couples: Try a new restaurant together.

Singles: Try a new restaurant alone. Or just go to Chick-Fil-A for the third time this week.

Helpful hint: If you are single, you can afford to splurge on a nice dinner or extra fries. 

11:

Couples: Go for a romantic drive. Find some quiet side roads to meander along.

Singles: Hide in their trunk for a romantic drive.

Helpful hint: Be discreet when getting in the trunk, and bring snacks. This may take a while.

12:

Couples: Go to an exotic location.

Singles: Google an exotic location from your dorm while wearing sweatpants.

13:

Couples: Gift a giant teddy bear to your loved one.

Singles: Hide in the giant teddy bear. If the recipient hugs the bear, be sure to hug back.

Helpful hint: Make sure you can breathe.

14:

Couples: Have a nice, romantic evening.

Singles: Envision a fantastical romantic evening which far surpasses those of the couples around you.

15:

Couples: Celebrate Valentine’s Day

Singles: Celebrate Singleness Awareness Day, or Galentine’s Day, whichever you choose. 

Helpful hint: All jokes aside, learn to be content in your singleness, and lean on God instead of any person. 

I hope this list helps you decide what to do this Valentine’s Day, whether or not you have found your person. Whatever your relationship status, or the number of prospective suitors you see, have fun and do not forget to spend some time with your friends. God has His reasons for our relationships and for our singleness.

One final note for any couples reading: Don’t forget to leave room for Jesus
