Has it occurred to you that a girl can always buy herself a Valentine’s bouquet? We don’t need a man to buy it for us.
We’re women who can take care of ourselves. We don’t need a companion to celebrate Valentine’s Day. However, you may have been raised to think differently. Due to social norms.
Change Pre-Conceived Ideas About Being Single:
On Valentine’s Day, change all those pre-conceived ideas if you’re single, divorced, or widowed. Buy yourself a box of chocolates while you’re at it. Schedule a spa day for yourself. Take a trip.
To heck with waiting for men to do it for us. I bought myself a bouquet of flowers at Walmart earlier today. Right now, I’m gazing at the flowers as I sit and work on this computer.
I brought the bouquet home and put it in a pretty pitcher on my dining table. And I will enjoy it as I dine alone.
Celebrate With A Takeout Meal:
What’s your favorite take-out? Chinese? A nice juicy steak? A burger and fries?
Well, order what you hunger for on Valentine’s Day. Set a pretty place setting for one. Light a favorite candle. Turn on some music and enjoy the ambiance as you eat.
Or you could go out to a restaurant to dine.
It’s time we women learn to celebrate holidays on our own. If we’re not in a relationship, that does not mean we can’t be happy. Many women happen to love living alone, and I’m one of them.
Buy Yourself A Favorite Dessert:
To make my day even more special, I took a trip down the frozen food aisle of Walmart. I purchased two frozen Pepperidge Farm cakes.
One is a creamy red velvet cake, and the other is German chocolate cake.
I just had to try a bite of the red velvet cake, and it is absolutely divine! Wickedly sweet. And oh, that cream filling is so delicious!
Here are 3 reasons to celebrate being a single woman on Valentine’s Day.
- You can pick out the flowers you really desire
- Buy yourself a box of chocolates
- If you so desire, you can eat the entire box!
Yes, you can choose to do whatever you want on Valentine’s Day. Or on any holiday, for that matter.
A Woman Does Not Need A Male Companion On Valentine’s Day:
This girl certainly does not need a male companion to have fun on what is considered a “couples” holiday.
If you don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day because you aren’t part of a couple, then you’re doing yourself a disservice.
Because you are special. Isn’t that something to celebrate?
I am a happy girl. Life is good. And I celebrate holidays alone regularly.
Amen Sistah!!! Enjoy that decadent cake and those beautiful flowers?
Beautiful arrangement of flowers! Hope you're have a Happy Valentines and enjoying those delicious cakes! ~Rhonda
I sure am!
Brenda,
Happy Valentine's Day enjoying your beautiful flowers and red velvet cake.

That red velvet cake is delish. Living alone, I like those small frozen cakes.
We all need to take responsibility for our own happiness! Enjoy your day, Brenda!
Yes, we do, and you enjoy yours as well!
Wise words we need to repeat , and teach,to all young women! We ALL are " special" in our own right!
We sure are!
Good for you! It sounds like you have a great day planned. Enjoy every minute of it!
I am enjoying my day with my pupsters!
Love your flowers – what lovely colours they are too.
Happy Weekend Wishes
All the best Jan
Makes me smile just looking at them!
Absolutely!
Even if you're married, buy those flowers at the store!
Very well written.Take care of yourself first.
That is my mantra…
Good for you. I bought myself some tulips today and felt a little weird as I was surrounded by men buying roses! Very silly!
Enjoy your day, the flowers are beautiful and I do think you have found the happiness you deserve.
Jane
I actually wanted red tulips, but went to two Walmarts and couldn't find any.
You are a wise lady, Brenda, "Because you are special all by yourself" is SO true. Because really, learning to love and appreciate the gift of "me", truly is an important lesson to learn.
How I wish I could get that through the heads of the moms that I meet, whose precious young I take care of. Oh the pain they would avoid and the terrible things little ones would never have to see and not ever get out of their heads.
Good for you dear happy lady!
Sending virtual hugs your way, Cindy
Hugging right back at ya, Cindy!
Great post. We can not expect someone else to make us happy.
I enjoy buying my self flowers year round. They are so happy.
Thanks for the tip about the cakes. They sound yummy.
It took me many years to get it right. That I must do for myself.
