7. Chocolates Galore

If your friends have a sweet tooth, treat them to Valentine's Day chocolates. Why, you ask? Well, chocolate triggers the same pleasure and happiness in the brain that love does. So there you have it, the perfect substitute. Historically, from the Aztec civilization to Victorian England, chocolate has also been considered an aphrodisiac. Though there is no scientific evidence to prove that fact, surveys do show that both men and women prefer chocolates over flowers as a gift.

8. Talk to Your Single Friends on Valentine's Day!

The value of a gift is not how much it costs but how much it means to someone. Calling someone up for a chat is not much of an effort, but it can mean so much to them. So call your single friends this Valentine’s Day because neither texts nor voice texts carry the message that you care about them as well as a real phone call does.

So, go forth and splurge on yourself and your beloved friends, and avoid the Valentine’s Day blues!
