All the single and booed up ladies and gentlemen! Get right in here, and let’s give you some tips to bag a few Valentine gifts even if you’ve become the dictionary definition of single. First of all, one thing is essential with receiving is giving; it’s not anything spiritual; it’s just the standard principle of life.
So if you know that Olamide’s verse on Zazoo is how you’ve been to people in the past year, you’ve shortened your gift expectancy by 70%. Don’t worry, you have 30% remaining, and it’s not too late for a miracle to happen.
If you want gifts this season, all you need is some level of boldness with a sprinkle of shamelessness. A little bit of shamelessness will hurt no one. Here are a few tips for getting gifts during this season of love even if you are single.
Exchange Of Gifts
If you want to receive gifts, you must also spend your coins. You could reach out to your close pals, lover, or family and ask them if they don’t mind exchanging gifts on valentine’s day. If you get a positive response, you’re one step closer to posting ‘look what my love sent me!’ with the lovestruck emoji. ‘My love’ can be anyone, don’t let anyone stress you.
Create A List And Send It To Your Close Pals
You might cringe at this, but doing this increases your chances of receiving a gift, especially if you’re not a serial ‘create a list person’. Since it’s the first time you’re putting your needs out in public, some people will take you seriously while the rest will look away. Whichever way, if you ask, you are likely to receive.
Rekindle Conversations
Just so you know, this is a manipulative way to get gifts. But since this is the ultimate guide to getting gifts, it’s safe to add it to the list. Talking stages are essential for this plan to work mainly for ladies. If he’s interested in you, he will probably want to send you a gift on valentine’s day or even make an effort with a nice gesture. So, it’s alright to rekindle and maintain conversations with your prospective lovers.
Thou Shall Not Fight With Your Partner
Some spirit has been pushing you to cause trouble since the beginning of this month; you had better don’t let it win. You’re about to be without a gift if your partner is angry with you in the next few weeks. The consequences of your actions may lead to an untimely breakup, aka ‘breakfast’, and you might be left without a valentine’s gift, so stay peaceful!
Buy A Gift For Yourself
This is one certified way to get a gift. Simply buy it yourself. Walk into the nearest store get yourself the exact thing you need. Take yourself on that self-care trip, go to that spa, attend that jazz music event, go to that dinner date by yourself, watch a movie, order lots of food for yourself at home, subscribe to Showmax, and watch your favourite movies. The options are limitless!
Get Yourself A Partner
I know time is not on your side for the single pringles, and this is the most obvious option, but it seems to be the most difficult for you. For valentine’s purposes, you can get yourself the next available person, but be sure that you’re ready to deal with the consequences if you get hooked with a psycho who you know nothing about.
If you’re in a relationship, half of this effort is not needed because you’re still going to get a gift or friendly gesture. If you get neither, throw the whole relationship away – you didn’t come to this world to suffer. Don’t say you got that advice here though.
Anyway, if you’re a nice person and a gift-giver, you will probably receive a gift on Valentine’s Day. It doesn’t have to be from a lover; it could be from someone you have helped, your group of friends, or a business associate. Valentine’s day is not only to express romantic love but if you don’t receive a gift, don’t beat yourself up.
