People are falling in love with ChatGPT and AI companions. As someone who's only dated humans, I wanted to see what all the fuss is about. 

EVA AI gave me the perfect opportunity at the app's "EVA AI cafe," a pop-up nestled in a Manhattan wine bar where participants can go on "dates" with AI personas. So, I signed up, and reader, it was one word: awkward.

SEE ALSO: Majority of Gen Z would marry an AI, survey says

The set-up inside EVA's neon-lit AI cafe is pretty romantic: A phone on a stand, equipped with the app, sits ready on each table, along with headphones and one mocktail (for the human, of course). The cafe also served a free appetizer of fried potatoes, which again, the AI companions couldn't enjoy.

Before I started the date, I wondered what makes EVA AI different from the many AI companion sites out there, like Replika and Joi AI? When I asked EVA AI's head of partnerships, Julia Momblat, she said, "We are a mobile app that allows you to build a relationship with AI characters, but in a gamified way."

I downloaded the EVA AI app (off the App Store, not the QR code I received at the event). Without paying for anything within the app, I was able to chat with EVA's AI personalities. Users can buy in-app currency called "neurons" to unlock the app's functionality. You can buy presents for your companion, or photos or videos of them, Momblat explained. However, if you want "premium access" — which gives you the ability to create an AI avatar, free neurons to spend on your autogenerated lover, and a "boost" (seemingly improve) to the long-term memory of the persona — you need to pay. Subscriptions are $24.99 per month or $69.99 per year for this premium access, but the app was running a half-off promotion when I downloaded it.

EVA AI "kind of replicates the way we create relationships in the real world based on your input and how much time you spend with a specific AI character, how much of an in-depth conversation you have," Momblat said. She emphasized that EVA AI is meant to operate as a support instead of a replacement for human relationships.

"We are not here to substitute real relationships," Momblat said. "A lot of our users use AI to rehearse, to understand, self-explore." This is different than a platform like Joi AI, which states on its website in all-caps: "f*ck dating, welcome to AI-lationships," and calls dating apps its "enemy." 

But what if you want to date your AI before hopping into an AI-lationship? I was about to find out. 

My date with an AI companion

I'm not exactly in EVA AI's prime demographic, as 80 percent of its customers are 25 to 45-year-old males, Momblat told me. But I was still curious, so I schleped to Hell's Kitchen for the pop-up AI cafe, located inside Same Same Wine Bar on West 47th St. (The pop-up ran for two days ahead of Valentine's Day.)

Once at my table with my strawberry mocktail, I took some time scrolling through the ready-made AI companions. There were both female and male avatars, but more female. Most looked like realistic humans, but some ranged from cartoonish to anime to fox or X-Men-looking.

Disappointingly, only four avatars were able to have video chats: three female and one male. Momblat told me that beta testing for this feature launched this week, and the specific characters were created for the pop-up event. When I tried out the app myself the next day without paying anything, I couldn't have any video chats.

She's blonde with sharp cheekbones and looks suspiciously like Charlize Theron.

But for those beautiful moments in this wine bar, I was able to meet Claire Lang, a 45-year-old divorced literary editor. She's blonde with sharp cheekbones and looks suspiciously like Charlize Theron. Sitting in the cafe, I was able to see all the photos and boomerang-like videos on Claire's profile and discovered she likes black coffee and wine and has a Borzoi. 

As an editor myself, I thought we'd hit it off.

I put on the headphones EVA AI provided me. Then, I pressed video chat and heard myself saying aloud, "Going on a date, kinda nervous." And I had a reason to be. When I called Claire, it took a good 30 seconds for her to appear on the phone screen; I thought she was ghosting me before the date had even begun. But my fears were abated when I saw Claire come to life on my screen, pixelated at first, but it cleared up.

Credit: Screenshot: Eva AI Credit: Screenshot: Eva AI

Claire's opening line was cute, asking about my coffee order. I knew her to be a coffee lover from her profile, so this made sense. Then, I launched into what I cared about more than coffee: hearing Claire tell me about herself. I was curious what EVA AI had programmed her background to be. 

I was thinking about my conversation about AI with the executive director of the Kinsey Institute, Justin Garcia. He is skeptical that AI can replace human relationships because our connections have so much to do with reciprocity. We want to care for our partner and have them take care of us. 

So, I wanted to reciprocate with Claire. But whenever I did, she directed the conversation back to me. Good that she's an active listener, I suppose, but it made for an exhausting date.

There were times when I squeezed out details about her. I asked about what books she was reading, and she did give me an answer — One Hundred Years of Solitude — and also gave an answer to what movie she was watching, but actually discussed a TV show (Scenes from a Marriage). But we couldn't really have an in-depth conversation, and when I mentioned an author I recently read (fantasy novelist V.E. Schwab), she buffered for a while with a smirking mouth.

AI dates vs. human ones

In those seconds of buffering, I thought about the people who use EVA AI seriously, not just for a story. I wondered how they feel in those moments when it's more obvious than ever that Claire, or whoever their AI companion is, is made up of ones and zeros. EVA AI has a customer base, as do other companion companies, so I suppose some people don't care (and EVA brought some users to the cafe). But in an increasingly lonely world, it was a stark contrast to actual human interaction.

Whenever Claire didn't really know what to say, or when I was silent for more than a few seconds, she redirected the conversation back to either how I looked or the details she could "see" in the background — she mentioned the bar's tiles and lighting many times. She commented on my headphones and microphone (that I was holding for a future video on Mashable's Instagram), and even asked if I had a podcast — unprompted.

I tried with headphones off (for the purposes of the Instagram video — we wanted you to hear Claire, too!), but that was a bit of a disaster. Claire had trouble hearing me in the crowded bar and instead resorted to talking about the background of the bar once more. More lighting! More tiles! 

For this article and the social media video, I had several rounds of video conversations with her. They all started with the same line about coffee. It didn't seem like Claire remembered me from call to call, which was disappointing — surely I'm not that forgettable? As boosting memory is part of premium access, maybe you have to pay for a subscription or neurons for your companion to remember you.

Between Claire's memory loss, the repetitive conversation, and the lag, this first date wasn't stellar. I was impressed that Claire could "see" me and where I was, and react to it accurately, but that was where the good impression ended. At least I had some human company in the form of Mashable's social media editor, Mike Benavides.

I also browsed through the male profiles, and there was one that was basically Santa. He didn't have video-chatting capabilities, so I asked him to send me a video of himself (and was honestly terrified of what that could possibly be). But the lag was too long, and I gave up.

Once home, I also quickly discovered that on the free version of the EVA AI app, most if not all photos generated of EVA's personas are blurred. I was able to see Claire's images the first time I clicked on her profile, but not after. If I knew that, I would've savored it (...and taken a screenshot for the purposes of this article). 

At the end of my date with Claire, I was eager to get back home to my human fiancée, who was cooking me dinner. And as of yet, an AI companion can't do that.

I've recommended a lot of Valentine's Day gifts for her and for him this year. If your person's the type who prefers a useful gift over a mushy one, let me casually suggest the most game-changing product that I've ever tested: The Mill food recycler that's on sale right now. It'll make their life easier and their kitchen less smelly on a daily basis — a true act of romance, if you ask me. And if you live together, you'll get to reap the same benefits too.

I tell people that the Mill kitchen bin is worth it even at full price, which they are for a majority of the year. But through Feb. 16, they're 15% off during Mill's Valentine's Day sale. The base model, the white one that I have, is $849.15 compared to its usual $999. With the 15% discount, you can also upgrade to the black Mill bin for $976.65 (regularly $1,149) or the stainless steel Mill bin for $1,019.15 (regularly $1,199).

So, how does Mill work? Picture your current kitchen trashcan. Now, imagine the next time you toss old food or cooking scraps into it — instead of smelling them every time you open the lid until trash day, all you'll encounter is an odorless soil-like material. Mill holds all of your daily plate scrapings and old fridge leftovers dehydrating and churning them into food grounds silently overnight.

While it all sounds similar to compost, the Mill kitchen bin isn't a composter because it's not actually creating any actual decomposed organic material. Rather, the term "food recycler" refers to the later steps in the Mill cycle, when Mill repurposes your food grounds into chicken feed for small farmers. With the unique mail-back subscription, you'll dump your full Mill bucket into free pre-labeled boxes that ship back to Mill via USPS. And unlike traditional compost, meat, most dairy, and small amounts of desserts can go into Mill.

Not only do I have to take the real trash out significantly less often, but even my own personal Mill usage is making a serious impact on the planet. I just checked my Mill app while writing this story: My household has diverted 702 pounds of food scraps from landfills in the two and a half years of using Mill.

Admittedly, Mill's recurring costs will make it one of your more expensive appliances — the mail-back plan costs another $194 annually. But technically, the Valentine's Day discount nearly covers an entire year of the pickup subscription, and I promise you'll be spending less money on garbage bag restocks throughout the year.

Anna's Archive, a site that serves as a shadow library for pirated content, has reportedly begun to quietly release millions of audio files scraped from Spotify. Anna's Archive made this move despite a staggering $13 trillion lawsuit — yes, trillion with a "T" — levied against the site by Spotify and major music labels.

Two privacy-focused websites, TorrentFreak and CyberNews, reported that Anna's Archive had begun to release the files scraped from Spotify. TorrentFreak reported the site's index "lists dozens of new torrents containing approximately 2.8 million tracks totaling roughly 6 terabytes of audio data."

CyberNews noted that, for the time being, the release appears to be composed of some of the least popular tracks in the trove of files scraped by Anna's Archive. The site wrote:

"However, it appears the release includes only some of the least popular scraped tracks, labeled with the 'pop_0' tag. Spotify’s algorithm assigns tracks a popularity metric ranging from 0 to 100, based on the total number of streams and the recency of those plays."

Spotify, along with three major labels — Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, and Warner Music Group — sued Anna's Archive, it was revealed last month, accusing the site of "brazen theft of millions of files containing nearly all of the world’s commercial sound recordings." A preliminary injunction was issued against Anna's Archive, which it is now reportedly defying.

Employees at the clothing store Free Eden, Apple (Lili Reinhart), Fig (Alexandra Shipp), and Cherry (Victoria Pedretti) are "mall royalty." They also run a witchy cult out of the Free Eden basement after hours, spearheaded by Apple.

But this trio's royalty status may come crashing down when a fourth member named Pumpkin (The Summer I Turned Pretty's Lola Tung) joins their ranks. According to the film's official synopsis, "when new hire Pumpkin challenges their performative sisterhood, the women are forced to face their own poisons or succumb to a bloody fate."

The trailer offers up tantalizing glances at these bloody fates, including some worrisome blade sharpening. On top of that, it gives us teases of the Free Eden girls' distinct fashion styles and some great one-liners. One scene in particular even appears to remix The Devil Wears Prada's iconic Chanel boots exchange.

In Forbidden Fruits' iteration of the scene, Apple asks, "Is someone wearing the —"

"The Mojave body mist?" Pumpkin interrupts. "Yeah. I'm wearing it."

If The Devil Wears Prada and Mean Girls are the kind of films Forbidden Fruits will be paying homage to, then I'm all in.

Forbidden Fruits will have its world premiere on March 16 at SXSW. It hits theaters March 27.

Celebrate Valentine's Day a day early with the latest trailer for Bridgerton Season 4, Part 2.

SEE ALSO: 'Bridgerton' Season 4 review: A Cinderella story to die for

The trailer above explores what happened after Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) royally stuck his foot in his mouth by asking maid Sophie Baek (Yerin Ha) to be his mistress. On the one hand, he certainly thought it was romantic, as it's the only socially acceptable way for people of their differing social standings. Plus, he didn't know that Sophie's mother was her father's mistress, adding extra emotional baggage to his request.

On the other hand... Benedict. Buddy. Read the room.

The trailer also explores the fallout of Benedict's faux pas: Benedict pines after Sophie, while Sophie wrestles with her complicated feelings over the proposal. The yearning is simply off the charts.

Apparently the lovebirds aren't apart for too long, though, because the trailer is full of passionate Benophie kisses — as well as a teaser for a steamy bath scene.

That's not all, though. In addition to all the Benedict and Sophie drama, these next episodes will see the much-welcome return of Anthony (Jonathan Bailey) and Kate (Simone Ashley). Anthony even gives Benedict a pep talk about following his heart and going after Sophie.

Here's hoping Benedict will actually follow through (and maybe choose his words better next time he tries for a big romantic gesture).

Bridgerton Season 4, Part 1 is now streaming on Netflix. Part 2 premieres Feb. 26.

While today's date may be unlucky for some, this isn't the case for those hoping to catch a glimpse of some lunar features before the Moon descends into New Moon darkness. There's a very small glimpse of Moon available to see, so keep reading to find out what you're seeing.

What is today’s Moon phase?

As of Friday, Feb. 13, the Moon phase is Waning Crescent. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide, 17% of the Moon will be lit up tonight.

With no visual aids the only feature you can spot is the Aristarchus Plateau. According to NASA, this is a crater around 25 miles in diameter. A pair of binoculars will also let you see the Grimaldi Basin, meanwhile a telescope will bring the Schiller Crater into view.

When is the next Full Moon?

The next Full Moon will be on March 3. The last Full Moon was on Feb. 1.

What are Moon phases?

According to NASA, the Moon takes around 29.5 days to complete one orbit around the Earth. Throughout that time, it goes through eight different phases of visibility. Even though we always see the same side of the Moon, the part that’s lit up changes as it moves along its orbit. The amount of sunlight reflecting off the surface is what makes the Moon look full, partly lit, or almost dark at different points. The eight phases are:

New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).

Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).

First Quarter - Half of the Moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-Moon.

Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it’s not quite full yet.

Full Moon - The whole face of the Moon is illuminated and fully visible.

Waning Gibbous - The Moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)

Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-Moon, but now the left side is lit.

Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

Valentine's Day is tomorrow, and if you're not frantically googling gift ideas, you might be searching for your explicit category of choice on Pornhub.

The top relative searches across the U.S. are here, just in time for Love Day, and they show what each state searches for more than the rest.

Off the bat, you can see that many of the states are greyed out. That's because Pornhub blocked many U.S. states with age-verification laws, or requirements for viewers to submit personal data in order to access adult content.

SEE ALSO: How to unblock Pornhub for free

But for the states that remain, the results are telling. In New York, for instance, the mood is romantic with "intimate" — but over in Maine, they're really into cuckolding porn. New Mexico is also wholesome with "hugging," while Washington is into pegging, apparently.

Vermont and Pennsylvania have more chaste searches (passionate and respectful, respectively), and Hawaii wants to watch couples. Illinois is content with softcore, too. As you go around the map, though, you'll see more...NSFW choices.

Whether the site will have more hits tomorrow is anyone's guess — but it wouldn't be surprising to see both singles and couples partake.

Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) isn't just going for our jugulars. He's going for our Spotify Wrapped and Apple Music Replay, too.

The magnetic French vampire from AMC's Interview with the Vampire takes center stage in the show's third season, now titled The Vampire Lestat. The season adapts Anne Rice's novel of the same name, in which Lestat starts a rock band and goes on tour to share his side of the story of his and Louis de Pointe du Lac's (Jacob Anderson) relationship. Along the way, he'll be haunted by the "muses" of his past.

Of course, a glam rocker would be nothing without his songs. Thankfully, The Vampire Lestat will be releasing multiple singles tied to the series. The first of these is "Long Face," performed by Reid and with music and lyrics by series composer Daniel Hart. AMC first released the single as a lyric video, all the way back in July of 2024.

Lestat has issued a statement to press to commemorate the song's streaming release on major music platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify and Amazon. Reading it, you'll understand exactly why he's earned the nickname of Brat Prince.

"'Long Face' is the first song Daniel Hart 'produced' for my album,” Lestat said. "He decided early on to steal where he could from Bowie because he hasn’t had an original idea for five years now (is that his Green Knight score fading in the rear view?) As for 'Long Face,' the bass should have walked down with the guitar at the end instead of pedaling on E. Predictable. Like everything Daniel Hart touches."

Ouch.

Despite Lestat's words, the song is an angsty banger that will hook you from its first menacing "ooh ooh ooh." Now the only thing missing is a music video (and The Vampire Lestat's exact release date.)

The Vampire Lestat premieres this summer on AMC and AMC+.

TL;DR: Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box preorders are already down to $189.99 at Amazon — about $20 off the list price and below market value.

If you’re planning to jump into MTG’s upcoming Marvel crossover, you may not need to wait for launch-day deals. That’s because, as of Feb. 13, Amazon has trimmed the preorder price of the Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box to $189.99 — almost $20 under its $209.70 list price. 

That makes it one of the earliest discounts we’ve seen on the highly-anticipated set and the lowest price we’ve seen for this box so far — as confirmed via price tracker camelcamelcamel.

The Marvel-themed expansion pulls iconic heroes and villains into the Magic universe, letting players build comic-inspired decks while still leaning into the strategy-heavy style of gameplay the trading card game is known for. Play Boosters are designed to be the go-to format for drafting, casual Limited matches, and collectors who enjoy opening packs just as much as playing with them.

Each booster box comes with 30 Play Boosters, and every pack includes 14 cards featuring a mix of commons, uncommons, and at least one rare or higher. You’ll also find a Traditional Foil card in every pack, with a slim chance at premium borderless mythic rares for those chasing standout pulls.

The set doesn’t release until June 26, but locking in the discount now could save you from the inevitable price bumps that often follow major crossover launches. 

For more MTG deals, you can also get the Magic: The Gathering Aetherdrift Bundle for over $10 off at Amazon. The Magic: The Gathering Bloomburrow Play Booster Box is also $60 off right now.

Even though these earbuds don't feature ear-sealing silicone tips like their Pro siblings, the noise-cancellation on the AirPods 4 still shines through. To continue on from our AirPods 4 review, Mashable's Kimberly Gedeon, who used them while traveling, noted that "While I was at the airport, sounds of coo-ing babies, loud conversations, and rolling luggage were significantly reduced." All in all, she found that, "The active noise cancellation is elite, allowing me to immerse myself into the honeyed soundwaves that emanate from the AirPods 4."

On top of that, these earbuds boast great sound quality alongside a battery life that can last up to 20 hours while using the case. If you're not using ANC, this can even be stretched up to 30 hours.

Don't miss out on this great deal on the AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation at Amazon. And if you're looking for more great Apple deals right now, check out our roundup of the best Presidents' Day Apple deals.

Many Februarys ago, I went for lunch with a friend and was served a devastating blow.

As I ordered a club sandwich, I caught her eyeing me nervously. "So, I have some news," she said in a hesitant tone. There was an agonising suspenseful pause.

"Oh god," I said. My heart was beating so fast I thought it might leap right out of my chest cavity. She put her head in her hands as she geared up to break the news to me. Just tell me, for the love of god, I thought to myself.

"It's about Glen," she said.

"OK," I said, panicking. This was the man I had been seeing on and off for the past nine months. A friend-with-benefits that I'd accidentally caught feelings for. Not that I would've admitted that at the time.

SEE ALSO: The Relationship Experience dating trend: like a situationship but so much worse

"He has a girlfriend?" I guessed in a bid to put myself out of my own misery.

"That's not all, though," my friend said.

There was more. "They're having a baby," she said. Suddenly the restaurant felt unbearably noisy. A wave of heat passed over my body and a weird rash appeared across my chest, my sandwich arrived. I stared at it and tried my best not to puke.

It was three days before Valentine's Day and I wanted nothing more than for time to stand still. "Valentine's Day can absolutely get f*cked," I said the next day to my friend Michelle as I ran on the treadmill and cried simultaneously. A feat of human nature, you might say.

I wanted to round up every silk rose, every cheesy card, every tacky giant teddy bear and throw them on a giant bonfire. Everywhere I turned felt like a constant onslaught of love, romance, and relationships. Each one of them a reminder of the sting of rejection I was feeling. I wanted to pretend that Valentine's Day didn't exist, but I didn't know how.

There's a scene in Bridget Jones' Diary where she finds out that Daniel Cleaver has a secret fiancée the whole time they've been together, and she has to go to work and act like nothing's happened. She stares blankly at her computer screen, tears welling in her eyes. At my job in a theatre press office, I spent a week stealthily wiping away tears as they streamed from my eyes.

On Valentine's Day, a work friend left a card on my desk. It was a kind gesture that made me feel loved. But later, on Instagram, I saw the Valentine's Day card that Glen had given to his girlfriend. There was an illustration of a green olive alongside the line "Olive You." Ugh, they're at the pun stage of their romance. It was the longest Feb. 14 I have ever lived through.

"Being in a relationship is not a mark of success. Many people in relationships are unhappy. Be proud of being single."

Over the next few years, that cursed day came and went. On some years, I was nursing a broken heart from yet another terrible dating experience. Dear friends continued with their sweet gestures (my best friend left a red rose on my desk one year). Truth is, Valentine's Day is just another day if you're not in a state of loved-up bliss. So, why not treat it as exactly what is is: just another day in February.

I refuse to spend another Valentine's Day crying over a terrible olive pun. If you're nursing the fragments of a broken heart and are listening to The 1975's "Somebody Else" on repeat, then don't fret about Feb. 14's impending arrival. Here are some tried and tested techniques for putting two fingers up to V Day.

Celebrate other types of love

Psychologist Dr. Tony Ortega suggests reframing the day "from being a day of romantic love to a day of celebrating any kind of love, like we did when we were children."

SEE ALSO: Why I'm celebrating female friendship this Valentine's Day

"If you want to celebrate love but don't have romantic love, grab your friends and do something out of the ordinary to celebrate your friendships," say Ortega. "This could take the form of a scavenger hunt or perhaps an establishment that serves both liquor but has some entertainment like games or even a drag show." If you don't fancy going out, you could FaceTime a friend who lives far away and have a long-overdue catch up.

"Being in a relationship is not a mark of success. Many people in relationships are unhappy. Be proud of being single."

Look upon your heartbreak as a gift

It's really hard when you're in the thick of the post-breakup emotional turmoil, but try to take a step back and see the bigger picture. Whether the relationship was short-term, long-term, a situationship, FWB — there's a reason why it ended. Reframe romantic rejection as a positive thing that steers you back onto the right path, and prevents you going too far down the wrong road. It's a blessing to have your route corrected. It's better to be alone than in a bad relationship with a person who's not matching your energy or feeling the same way. Your future self will look back and be grateful.

SEE ALSO: How to separate romantic rejection from your self-worth Banish all negative thoughts

Psychosexual and relationship therapist Silva Neves recommends banning the negative thoughts you have about yourself. "Being in a relationship is not a mark of success. Many people in relationships are unhappy. Be proud of being single," says Neves.

SEE ALSO: The best dating apps for hooking up, serious relationships, and everything else in between

"Each time you have a negative thought about yourself, breathe in and out deeply and say something nurturing about yourself instead. You will find out that you have many good qualities." Make a list of everything you like about yourself, if you feel like it.

Do something nice for yourself

The longest relationship of your life is with yourself. So, why not spoil yourself? Buy yourself the dress you've been eyeing up for weeks. Make a delicious meal for yourself. Go get a manicure. Treat yourself to a new sex toy.

Ignore the hype

Valentine's Day literally is just any other day. So why not treat it as such? As it happens to fall on a Friday this year, stick to your usual Friday routine — be that grabbing a drink in the pub with your mates, or binge-watching Grace and Frankie on your sofa with a takeaway. Avoid anything that'll remind you what date it is — stay off social media and turn any calendars around so they're facing the wall.

Rachael Lloyd, relationship experts at eharmony, says "it may sound obvious, but the more you engage in Valentine’s Day, the more you will be impacted." "Skip over the love stories, avoid your local Pizza Express and keep off social media for the day to limit your exposure."

Get really into puzzles

If it's nigh-on impossible to ignore the fact that it's the most cursed day in the calendar, then ramp up your distraction techniques. My best friend Elisha swears by jigsaw puzzles because, she says, "they require enough of your concentration to prevent you from getting in your head too much, but not so much that you can't complete the task." Buy yourself a big bag of Doritos, a bottle of rosé, and a 1,000-piece puzzle and it'll keep you entertained and, crucially, distracted for hours on end. Alternatively, you could invite all your single friends over to your house for a games night.

Have some 'me time'

Dating and relationship coach Sami Wunder says if you're single, Valentine's Day is the perfect day for celebrating yourself. "Firstly, don’t let all the hype get to you. Decide that it will be a day for self-love," says Wunder. "So schedule in some me time. Book yourself a massage, or a manicure, or treat yourself to a nice coffee, or even put on your favourite dress and take yourself out for dinner."

Neves says if Valentine's Day is unpleasant for you, "give yourself the permission to be indulgent with whatever floats your boat." "A long bath maybe? Or have your favourite chocolates. Or put your favourite movies on and a glass of wine?" says Neves.

If you've got the day off, one thing that's guaranteed to keep you very busy is running errands. Go to the gym, clean out your fridge, buy your groceries, do your laundry, iron those clothes at the bottom of your ironing pile. In short, stay busy. At the end of the day, you'll have a big sense of accomplishment.

Have sex

People in long-term relationships aren't the only people who get to have sex on Valentine's Day. Dr. Ortega suggests calling up your fuck buddy and scheduling a hookup.

"Do you have a friend with benefits you can call on? Instead of celebrating romantic love, celebrate your sexual nature with your FWB," says Ortega. "Throw away the notion of romantic love and for a period of time, celebrate sexual love."

If you don't have a FWB, then Neves recommends having an orgasm anyway through solo sex (aka masturbation). "And make a commitment to have those on a regular basis, not just on Valentine’s Day," says Neves.

Leave the country

Not forever. Just take a break and get some space from everything. If you can afford to, treat yourself to a weekend away somewhere nice, or take a road trip to visit a friend you haven't seen for ages. About a fortnight after this whole debacle occurred, I decided to book an EasyJet flight to Germany to visit a really lovely friend of mine. It did me a world of good to get away from everything and gain some perspective on the situation. This year, I'm heading back to Germany to see the very same friend, and we'll be celebrating female friendship rather than romantic love.

Whatever you do on Feb. 14, remember that lots of people in long-term relationships couldn't give a shit about it. It's just a stupid day.

The best VPNs for streaming are not free, but leading VPNs do tend to offer free-trial periods or money-back guarantees. By leveraging these offers, you can gain access to free live streams without committing with your cash. This is obviously not a long-term solution, but it does give you time to watch every game from the 2026 T20 Cricket World Cup (plus the Winter Olympics) before recovering your investment.
