Five Tips to Find a Date for Valentine’s Day

No one wants to be alone on Valentine’s Day, but you are busy and simply have not had time to get out there and meet people. This is something that many women fall victim to and before they know it, they are on the couch with ice cream and Lifetime movies on February 14^th. The good news is that even with little time you can have a date on Valentine’s Day.

Speed Dating

Yes, this is cliché, but it is worth a try if it is the weekend before V-Day and you still do not have plans. Most major cities have speed dating events every weekend at area hotels and other public places. You can ask friends or head to the Internet to find events in your area. You may find no one that interests you or you may find more than one. The point is to keep an open mind and have fun with it.

Go Online

You still have time to head to the Internet and sign up on a dating site. It will only take you about an hour to put a decent profile together. Once your profile is ready to go you can fish through the site for people that you are interested in. There are plenty of free dating sites out there if you are short on cash or just don’t want to spend the money for a one-time thing. You are going to get slammed with messages and requests so keep an open mind and keep in mind that you are just looking for a date and not marriage.

Talk to Your Friends

Your friends surely have some single guy friends that you do not know. Do not be afraid to ask your friends to set you up for this one night. Blind dates often get the reputation of always being a disaster, but this is just not true. Many marriages have started out as a single blind date. Plus, even if you do not find your soul mate, you will have a fun evening that you normally would not have.

Just Ask

Is there a guy out there that has had your eye for a while? If so, just ask what he is doing this weekend. If he is busy, then you just move on. If he says nothing then you could end up with a date. Do not ask what he is doing on V-Day as this just generates too much pressure. Just casually asking him what he is up to this weekend takes that pressure off and will result in a much better chance of him saying “yes.”

Wear Something Red

This may sound too easy, but red attracts guys. So, for the next week incorporate red into your daily outfits. Just a scarf, pair of shoes or red necklace is plenty. There was actually a study done on this and women who wore red got more attention from guys. Red is seen as the color of love and when you wear it, you will notice more looks, guys sitting closer and more easily flowing and intimate conversation.
