One to tango

Self indulgence,not self pity,is the name of the game. And nothing spells it better than a day of pampering at the spa.

* Self indulgence,not self pity,is the name of the game. And nothing spells it better than a day of pampering at the spa. With spas around the city offering special packages for V-Day,leave all the baggage behind,carry a credit card and get ready for a day of bliss.

* Nothing beats the blues like red. And if they are Valentine blues,crush them under some stellar red stilettos. Or if that’s overkill for you,then a pair of cute pink ballerina flats will do the trick.

* Movie channels may have lined up an exciting day of amorous romances. Skip them all,offbeat romances are in. Head to your nearest DVD parlour and rent out the gore-heavy Bride of Chucky,followed by Seed of Chucky and feast on caramel popcorn as you watch the two hideous dolls get frisky.

* Dress to kill,literally. If all the mush around makes you want to gag,then un-fizz cuddly couples’ Valentine dates. Get into a killer black dress,go to a bar and just be. The male partners won’t be able to resist ogling,and it’s quite likely they’ll soon be wearing their drink. And when his lady walks out in a huff,offer a napkin,a shoulder and take it from there.

* Buy a couple’s movie ticket and sprawl yourself on the theatre’s love seat as if the world is yours to take.

* Celebrate singlehood with a singles CD. Hits that were big one-offs like George Michael’s Fast Love (where couplehood is totally taken the piss out of) and Outside,Madonna’s dance floor number Hung Up,where you can gyrate on your own.

* You’re single,your heart is whole and your own. Celebrate by baking your girlfriends a heart-shaped cake,popping a bottle of bubbly and treating yourself to a bitchfest. We suggest colleagues and neighbours. And exes for sure.
