Finally, it’s Valentine’s Day Weekend AND it’s a long weekend. What more can a girl ask for? Well if you are a Single Lady, you may be thinking that it would be nice to have a date on Valentine’s Day. Forget about it. Celebrate this V-Day with your best girlfriends. I Love Valentine’s Day; not because of the flowers, candy, cards and dinner. Truthfully, I think that stuff is all routine, predictable and passé. Unfortunately, most guys can not think outside of the “Valentine’s Day box” so that’s how they proceed.
Growing up my Mommy made such a fuss over V-Day. She brought us each a small gift (and wrapped it), dressed us up in red outfits (even put my big Bro in a red sweater) and made sure to cook our favorite meals. We shared V-Day love as a family and it was so much fun. When I first started dating, I too worried about having a Dude-Date on V-Day. Sometimes it happened and he would bring flowers, candy, cards and take me out to dinner. It wasn’t until law school that I decided that I would SHARE REAL LOVE on V-Day like my Mommy used to. I stopped worrying about going on a typical, boring and routine date; but instead celebrated the love that I had with and for my girlfriends.
So on this Single Ladies Valentine’s Day weekend allow me to share five ideas for a great Valentine’s Day weekend with your girlfriends:
Cook Together – I recently discovered the joy of recipe swapping. Get together with your best girlfriends and cook up a fabulous meal together. Bring some wine and Grey Goose and it will be a guaranteed fun night out.
Pampering and Sex Toys – Hire a good looking masseuse to come and pamper you and your girlfriends. Follow that up with a sex toy party. Check out www.passionparties.com. Fun times!
Go down Memory Lane – Bring the old buried pictures, yearbooks and scrapbooks and take a memory trip back to high school. I know that some of you probably held on to the high school love letters – if you bring those out Oh Mmm Gee!
Hit the Mall – Set a budget and pick each other’s outfits out. We all have a friend that we want to make over and this would be a perfect opportunity to get her to sex up her style.
Go to Karaoke – This one’s my favorite. Get together on Saturday. Pick out coordinating outfits and choreograph a routine. Rehearse again on Sunday. And on Monday go to a karaoke bar and perform as if you want to win a grand prize! Guaranteed RIOT! I will never forget my girlfriend trips to Curacao and cruise to the Bahamas J
Single Ladies, forget the dudes this weekend! Get out and SHARE REAL LOVE with your girls and sisters. Make it a Happy Valentine’s Day!

Rosey – these are fab ideas and I wouldn’t mind partaking in some of the girl fun myself. Another idea which I may be adopting this year is to celebrate Chinese New Year instead. It starts on February 14th and a combination of the two would make for a great celebration!
Hi Rosey — I love this post! Great suggestions! Both my girlfriend and I are single and we decided that instead of getting caught up in the boo hoos of not having a Valentine for V-Day or dwelling on our failed relationships (which we do from time to time), we are GOING TO PARTY!! We are driving to my beloved DC tomorrow (hoping that folks suffering from cabin fever will be happy to get out) to paint the town red! We are staying at the W – where their motto is “your wish is our command.” We are so looking forward to it! Yay single ladies!
