Even though February 15th has officially been declared Singles Awareness Day according to some very trustworthy website (super official, I know), us single women still need something to get us through the actual day of Valentine’s Day.
And while some women go the self-care route on this day—think: bubble baths, face masks, wine, you name it—other women, let’s just say, take it in a different direction. Like, maybe they burn a picture of their ex? Maybe they do a love potion? The options = endless.
So for your viewing pleasure (and also maybe because you want some mildly chaotic ideas for things to do yourself on this day), here you go.
The weirdest, most WTF Valentine’s Day rituals single women do on V-day:
1. “I look up my ex’s picture on social media, print it, and burn it the day before Valentine’s Day. Why? It simply ~brings me joy~.” —Ruby A.
2. “For the last two years, when Valentine’s Day hits, I subscribe an ex to ‘Cat Fact texts.’ It literally just blows up their phone with random cat facts every day.” —Kaylee R.
3. “Every year, I send all my single girlfriends vibrators with a note that says ‘love comes in many shapes and sizes.’”—Ariel K.
4. “Okay, so I know this is going to sound weird, but I’ve recently been on the witchy side of TikTok, and I’m planning on making a potion the day before V-day so that something happens to my ex on V-day. I don’t want him to die or anything, I just want him to, like, spill spaghetti sauce on his white shirt or something.” —Michelle A.
5. “I drink and enjoy the fact that all these men are another woman’s problem.” —Zalika D.
6. “Every Valentine’s Day, I get dressed up and put on press-on nails, as well as make myself crab cakes and potatoes. I know that seems just random, but it works. Is that weird? Because I will be doing this until I find a husband.” —Margo B.
7. “I spend the day with my Italian Greyhound named Romeo. He is my favorite date! And it is our ritual to get dressed up in coordinating outfits and step out for a light meal at a dog-friendly outdoor restaurant.” —Jo Jo H.
8. “Ever since 2014, I’ve dragged my friends into doing a Free Hugs flash mob on the day of Valentine’s Day. But this year, in the time of COVID, looks like I will be walking through my little town, making eye contact with strangers, and offering ‘no touch hugs.’ (Which means I’ll wrap my arms around myself and ask them to do the same.)” —Edie W.
9. “I use Valentine’s Day as an excuse to expose all the cheaters in my DMs. I post an Instagram Story that says ‘He’s cheating,’ post the screenshots, and then tag the person who is doing the cheating, plus the person being cheated on. I call it chaotic genius.” —Mattie H.
