Hey there!

I have a question for you.  Are you one of those people who gets depressed when you’re single on Valentine’s Day?  Do you go out of your way to find a man before V-Day, just so you won’t be alone?  If this sounds like you, you need to grab some scissors and cut it out!  Wallowing is never attractive and neither is the smell of desperation. Get out of that V-Day funk and do what I do when I find myself by myself on Cupid’s day.

• Who needs chocolate and roses?  I’ll pass on the empty calories and dead roses and go for something more permanent like some sexy perfume or hot shoes!  Treat yourself, don’t cheat yourself.  Yes, it’s nice to have someone tall, dark, and handsome shower you with gifts, but when he’s MIA, I make sure I keep myself feeling awesome by showering myself with a trinket or three.  Men love a woman who can take care of themselves and your confidence will be like a moth to the flame…very attractive!
• Pass the pink panties…the drink that is!  I invite my other single gal pals over for some libations, light apps, and heavy conversation.  V-Day is the perfect time to reconnect with old or new friends if you don’t want to be alone.  Friends, drinks, food, and laughter…the spice of life!
• If a group of gabbing gals sounds too overwhelming, I just pick up my bestie for some one on one girl time.   We make a reservation at our favorite restaurant and amidst all the googly eyed couples; we laugh, talk, and reminisce.  My friendships are just as important, if not more important than any relationship I will have with a man.  Why not use Valentine’s Day to celebrate your love for your friend?

And now some advice for those who do have a special person in their lives…Valentine’s Day is just a day! Don’t place too much emphasis on it   You should be showered with love every day, not just when Hallmark tells you to.   Remember, it’s only as important as you make it out to be.  And with that said, I’m off to spend some time with my new Beau.  Single or not, make sure you have a Happy Valentine’s Day!  Don’t forget to sprinkle!  Oh…I almost forgot. Andy Cohen of Bravo invited me to host a Valentine’s Day special where I will five relationship advice to fans, viewers, and even a few Bravo Reality Stars.  Tune into Bravo at 10pm, eastern/pacific time.  Want to win my SENSA Love Package complete with Berry Quench, Berry Chews, an autographed picture of yours truly, and a Red “Sprinkle Me Skinny” Decanter?  Just tell me what you love about yourself in the comments below.  The gals at SENSA will pick  one winner randomly on Wednesday, February 15 at 4pm, PST.    You can also enter on Twitter! Just post “Happy Valentines Day @sensaweightloss @pattistanger” to enter!  Good luck!

XOXO,

Patti Stanger
