Happy Valentine´s Day!
Today is a day for love and lovers, to share St. Valentine’s joy and all the cheesy romance one can possibly handle.
St. Valentines Day in Reykjavik
Valentines day is not really a big deal in Reykjavik, but at least a few lucky souls will be getting red roses or boxes of chocolates today. It’s a beautiful sunny day so maybe you’ll meet someone cute at the pool or walking their dog in the park. No one who wants to celebrate Valentines day should stay at home alone tonight, so just ask that person you’ve had your eye on for a while out on a date!
If you´re taken...
For all you lucky people in lovely relationships – try not to rub it in to all the sensitive singles. Today’s a day when facebook, twitter, and instagram overflow with pretty pictures of flower bouquets every woman wishes she had, and all the wall posts of how much you love your ‘baby boo’ could really be sent as a private sms instead.
If you´re single...
But for all the sensitive singles out there, don’t use social media to advertise just how single and alone you feel - it makes the happy couples feel bad to know youre at home watching the Notebook alone while cuddling your cat(s). Its also not nice to hate on Valentines day or publicly complain how stupid a holiday it is, because if youre angry and bitter on the one day a year when we’re supposed to celebrate love, then you must be a pretty grumpy person anyway and no one needs grumpy people in their lives.
Just remember that Valentines day is not just for romantic love, but to celebrate the love of friends and family too. I had my first Valentines date today with the one and only man in my life – my dad. Im going on a hot date tonight with my girlfriend (clarification: a friend who is a girl, we’re not dating), and we’ll be salsa dancing at Thorvaldsen if anyone else is dateless tonight and wants to learn Salsa.
If you are wondering what to be happy about today if you don’t have a Valentines date, then you should read this article “10 reasons it’s ok that you’re single.” Todays a day when all those handsome bachelors and independent woman can celebrate how great it is to meet new people, flirt freely, date whoever (and however many) people they like, and never have to deal with the drama of relationships. Think about how much time and money you save without a partner, and how endless the opportunities are for meeting someone beautiful here in Reykjavik - statistics say Iceland has some of the most beautiful people in the world according to various sources, with the most Miss Universes per capita than any other nation!. With the liberal nightlife scene in Iceland, you can always have romance and a healthy sex life without a boyfriend or girlfriend in Iceland, so, cheers to that!
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!
Love, Katrín
