Every year on February 14, the world celebrates Valentine's Day. On this day, people celebrate love by exchanging gifts and flowers. Single people may despise this day because they may not receive an endearing gift from anyone. If you are single on Valentine's Day by choice or otherwise, you can still have a good time. Here are some suggestions to keep you from feeling excluded on this day.

  1. Pamper yourself

Sometimes we get so caught up in life that we forget to treat and reward ourselves. Focus on loving and caring for yourself this Valentine's Day. Spend the day at the spa, or if you decide to stay home, take a long bubble bath while listening to relaxing music. You'll feel revitalized and refreshed.

  1. Go to the movies

If you have been yearning to watch a good movie, Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity to do so. Sometimes watching a movie alone is preferable so that you can fully immerse yourself in it with no interruptions. Don't forget to stock up on popcorn and candy.

  1. Binge-watch on Showmax

If you prefer to stay indoors then you can subscribe to Showmax and watch some of the best dramas back-to-back. Some Maisha Magic Plus shows such as Single Kiasi, Kina, Kyallo Kulture and Salem are all available on that platform. Don’t have Showmax? Add it to your DStv bill here.

  1. Host a dinner party for your single friends

Dinner with your fellow single friends is a great way to celebrate the day. You can opt to go out or order in or have each of them bring something for everyone to enjoy. Don’t forget to get some bubbly and raise a glass to your friendships.

  1. Buy yourself flowers

You can either buy a variety of flowers and arrange them yourself at home or you just order a beautiful bouquet from the florist. You can use them to decorate your favourite space at home or at work.

This Valentine’s Day, you don’t have to feel lonely. Maisha Magic Plus will keep you entertained throughout the day and month with love-themed shows.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
