Simplify Valentine’s Day.

I know everyone thinks that Valentine’s Day is this day where everyone has to show someone that they love them and a lot of girls think “It’s just a reminder that I don’t have someone to love” because that is what our society has turned it into. Then, girls with boyfriends think “My boyfriend needs to buy me something nice or it means he doesn’t love me.”

The truth is, Valentine’s Day is just another day. If you are going to celebrate it at all, it should be something fun that’s simple and sweet. Here are a few ideas:

Go to the park for a picnic.

Make dinner for your boyfriend or let him make something for you. If you don’t have a boyfriend, make dinner with a group of friends.

Instead of stressing out about finding the perfect present, put a little twist into your gift-giving. Do something fun like trying to guess each other’s favorite candy.

Make it a fun day just by being together.

If you don’t have a boyfriend, that’s okay too. You can still do something fun with your best friends or something sweet for your mom or dad, or even for your grandma. It might sound cheesy, but they will appreciate it.
