Aside from gifts, quality time may be all you need with your significant other.

But, what if you don’t have a significant other to spend Valentine’s Day with? Here are some ideas on how you should spend this romantic holiday and enjoy it. You could have a self-care night and watch your favorite rom-com. Or you could bake your favorite dessert while listening to music. 

When asked how they were spending the day without a significant other, many Dulaney students answered in their interview that they would spend it watching a rom com with their friends or hanging out with people they care about. Whether you have a significant other in your life or not, Valentine’s Day is about showing your love for the people you care about.
