When is Singles Awareness Day? This holiday is always observed on February 15
Singles Awareness Day is today. This February 15 holiday will warm your heart on a cold winter’s day. It is for those who are unattached, and without a significant other. It is celebrated the day after Valentine’s Day. This holiday exists for two reasons. First, it encourages singles to mingle and actively search for a romantic relationship. Secondly, it exists to stress that it is okay to be single. Therefore, we celebrate our single status with happiness.
Valentine’s Day is for the purpose of love and romance for those currently in a relationship. However, if you are in between relationships, and without a significant other, you may feel left out. Valentine’s Day can be depressing. So, the day after Valentine’s Day is your day.
So, open yourself up to the possibilities. It isn’t always easy to find love. But, it could be right around the corner. It could be today. However, you’re more likely to find true love is more when you smile, look your best, and maintain a positive attitude toward the possibility.
Singles Awareness Day traditions include:
Singles get together. It’s a chance to meet.
Singles give each other gifts.
Spend a little time on online dating sites.
You can celebrate and enjoy the fact that you are unattached.
Do things to enjoy your freedom.
How to Celebrate Singles Awareness Day
First, get out and about. You can’t find love sitting at home.
Look for places where singles congregate. Then, go there.
Go on dating sites. Browse around and make contact.
Take a chance. Say hello and start a conversation with that someone who has caught your eye, yet you’re shy or afraid to make contact. There’s no reward without some risk.
Today's Inspiration
