You try to ignore it but it's impossible to escape from. The gift shops are
full of heart shaped cards and teddy bears, the travel agents have "romantic
weekend trips to Paris" advertised, your attached friends topic of conversation
is "will he propose?" and all you can think is where the hell are you going to
find a man in time for Valentine's Day. Yes, it's the season of romance; the
time of year all singletons fear more than walking into a bar with their skirt
accidentally tucked into their pants following a visit to the toilet!
If you can identify with these thoughts, don't despair. Whilst it may be
difficult for you to get a marriage proposal in such a short space of time, you
may be able to get a date in time for Valentine's Day. Here's a few places for
you to try and if you've tried them before try them again; men will be on the
lookout at this time of year too so don't be afraid to make yourself
available:-
1. Take a good look around at work. Ok, so you've worked there for years and
none of the single guys have appealed to you before but in desperate times its
good to take a second look. Is the guy in accounts really so dull? Maybe he is
ultra cool out of work and will have you giggling all night if you give him a
chance.
2. Work off those extra pounds piled on at Christmas at the gym and eye up
those hunky bodies. Start by taking in the view on the treadmill and then once
you've spotted someone you like, ease your way over and ask if he would mind
showing you how to use one of the exercise machines in exchange for an
après-gym beverage.
3. If you don't have a dog, borrow one and take it for a long walk. You'll be
amazed at the amount of guys walking their dogs who will say "hello" to a
fellow dog walker.
4. Ask your attached friends to find out if any their boyfriend's friends have
recently become single and get them to arrange a casual get-together to
introduce you.
5. Last but not least, join an online dating site and message every half-decent
man available. By the time Valentine's Day arrives, you'll be inundated with
offers and will have to donate the surplus bouquets of red roses to your local
hospice because you've run out of vases!
Try one, if not all, of the above, and there's a very good chance you won't be
spending Valentine's Day alone!
