Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, and for those who are single, it's that time of year when everyone tells you that you can enjoy the "single life" as long as you don't mind spending the day avoiding heart-shaped objects, with a tub of ice cream, and pretending you're not crying into your pillow while everyone else is having a good time. But really, with 20% off chocolate and the ability to eat the entire bed, who needs love?
Valentine's Day serves as a reminder that there are benefits to being single, such as not having to share fries or feigning to like some store-bought, too-sugary chocolate. However, it's also a time to confront the harsh reality: we're here trying to figure out how to appear busy as everyone else is out on dates, while couples are out making extravagant gestures.
The yearly reminder that the aroma of despair from single people everywhere is in the air, along with the perfume of love. But really, with your couch as your best friend, who needs a date? These memes will keep you laughing throughout the day and may even help you feel less isolated in your chocolate-induced agony.

Here are 30 most hilarious Valentine's Day memes for single people to LOL without a date
1) Plan for coming Valentine's Day (Via Pinterest/ @News Samachar)
When your preparations for Valentine's Day include "kicking off" the relationship... one slipper at a time. You might throw shade (and slippers) at happy couples instead of settling for a date. With a dash of attitude, a real solo affair!
2) Valentine's Day is coming and you are single (Via Pinterest/ @Stephanie)
When you discover that you're still single and Valentine's Day is next month. All of a sudden, Netflix, munchies, and a lot of self-pity are part of your February plans. At least you don't have to split your pizza, though.
3) Love is in the air (Via Pinterest/ @YourTango)
When there's a sense of love in the air, but you're not sure if it's a sugar rush or roses. So, in order to tolerate the sweetness, you put on a mask and spritz some "fresh air." Consider it a detox for Valentine's Day.
4) Is Netflix a Valentine? (Via Pinterest/ @Reader's Digest)
Indeed! The only Valentine! When you eat a whole pizza by yourself, it never condemns you, never asks for anything in return, and is always there for you. With so many shows to binge-watch and munchies that never go bad, who needs roses?
5) Even Tarzon has a girlfriend (Via Pinterest/ @YourTango)
And here your 'Hey' text message isn't even getting a response in the meantime. Perhaps you need a pet gorilla or you are not swinging from the appropriate branches.
6) My Valentine's Day plan (Via Pinterest/ @Lola Lambchops)
cue blank look! Well, that would be just myself, my couch, and an endless supply of munchies. When you have pizza and no expectations, who needs a date? (crying inside)
7) I can already smell the roses I won’t be getting on Valentine’s Day but don’t worry, I’ll be diving into the discounted chocolates the next day (Via Pinterest/ @PYT Beauty)
There is nothing more 'self-love' than cheap candy and no expectations.
8) Others on Valentine's Day vs Me on Valentine's Day (Via Pinterest/ @funny my valentine)
Ensuring the date goes well will be their biggest challenge while everyone else is out enjoying Valentine's Day with elaborate dinners and heart-shaped decorations. The one who is sleeping through everything, avoiding the commotion, and receiving the best form of love - rest and relaxation - is the true MVP. When you have a comfortable bed and no expectations, why need a date?
9) Not single anymore (Via Pinterest/ @Mary AnnO'Malley)
In this instance, it's just incredibly puzzling, despite the saying that distance makes the heart grow fonder. He is practically living in the future, while she is in the present. He's three years ahead of her, sending her memes that haven't even gone viral yet, while everyone else is enjoying Valentine's Day. Even though they are unable to touch hands, at least their love is ahead of its time!
10) My Love life in a nutshell (Via Pinterest/ @Help)
Observing couples cuddling up while someone sits by themselves with their snacks, acting as though they had a choice.
11) Singles Meetup on Valentine's Day! (Via Pinterest/ @unreal, everyone with his reality)
What if they planned a large dinner for singles? There wouldn't be any awkward small conversation, just a group of people connecting over the love of "for one" food and steering clear of heart-shaped items. With no pressure, it's the ideal opportunity to meet someone who understands that Valentine's Day is actually just about pizza, munchies, and Netflix!
12) Why are you single? (Via Pinterest/ @Funny)
Simply respond that you're overqualified when someone asks why you're not dating. You've perfected the art of binge-watching television, and you've developed a skill for engaging in meaningful dialogue with your plants. You have high standards, but that doesn't mean you're picky. Are they able to share the last piece of pizza or appreciate a three-hour nap? For someone who is this well-rounded, the world is difficult.
13) When all your friends are in relationships (Via Pinterest/ @BuzzFeed)
When you're sitting there playing the third wheel amongst your buddies like it's a brand-new Olympic sport when all of them are in relationships. You're over here with your phone, acting as though you're too busy for a date, while they're all holding hands. However, you are the reason they seem so adorable together, isn't that right?
14) Pizza Day! (Via Pinterest/ @For The Lawlz)
Valentine's Day is officially Pizza day for singles. Can you relate?
15) This year's Valentine's day... (Via Pinterest/ @Cayla Jarrell)
Plans for Valentine's Day this year? Taking lengthy, romantic excursions to the refrigerator because, with goodies that don't condemn you, who needs a date? While couples stroll hand in hand, someone is out here enjoying a cold soda and a piece of leftover pizza while living life to the fullest. Until the food runs out, it's the kind of love that never ends.
16) No 1 4 me (Via Pinterest/ @ARYAN GUPTA)
There are plenty of goodies, your couch is ready, and Netflix never lets anyone down. When you have the ideal date planned - complete with snacks and solitude -who needs a Valentine?
17) I'm single by choice but not my choice (Via Pinterest/ @Think About Such Things)
Single by choice... well, more like not by choice, but still single. It’s not that they’re picky - it’s just that their soulmate is clearly out there... probably lost in a different timezone. For now, it’s just them, their snacks, and a constant reminder that love might be one swipe away... or 100 swipes, but who’s counting?
18) Anthems for singles on Valentine's Day! (Via Pinterest/ @Humor)
Oh, how fun it is to binge-watch shows and eat pizza every day! Hey! Single bells, single bells, no date in sight, but who needs romance when you've got chocolate and Netflix tonight?
19) Check your privilege (Via Pinterest/ @FunnyBone)
At least you don't have to rely on a rodent to forecast the weather to be happy. Pass the chocolate and check your privilege!
20) Forgot to get a partner (Via Pinterest/ @nichaxox)
Once again, someone has neglected to include "get a boyfriend" on their list of things to do this Valentine's Day. However, at least they have a playlist of breakup songs they can't even relate to and munchies ready.
21) Nobody loves you the other days, so chill! (Via Pinterest/ @Happy Valentine's Day)
Remember that no one loves you on the other 364 days, so don't worry! At least you have a socially acceptable excuse to pretend that rom-coms are documentaries and bury your sorrows in chocolate on Valentine's Day. You're just an ordinary person who eats cake by themselves without any cause for the rest of the year. Since everything is heart-shaped and the decorations are better, it's actually simply another day. Champ, calm down!
22) Spending Valentine's Day with the actual true love! (Via Pinterest/ @Laughs)
Someone's one true love - their pajamas - has huge plans for Valentine's Day. Pure comfort and a relationship that never fails them - no awkward silences, no turmoil. That's what you call a pairing made in heaven!
23) The choice is yours! (Via X/ @9GAG)
Hops, bubbles, and no stress - no awkward conversations, no dressing to impress! To love in a glass, cheers!
24) Sounds like a good proposal! (Via Pinterest/ @Juli_Collection)
Let's be honest, Valentine's Day serves as a reminder to couples that they need to organise a lavish event and to single people that they are alone. Perhaps we could all be at peace if we could just miss the entire day. There would be no embarrassing gift-giving or pressure, just an additional day to enjoy life without worrying about whether or not we're celebrating Valentine's Day correctly.
25) Valentine's Day for single people (Via Pinterest/ @Brett Haines)
A perfect way to celebrate Valentine's Day! All decked up for celebrating the day with yourself while crying inside.
26) Saved tons of money on Valentine's Day! (Via Pinterest/ @R)
There won't be any expensive dinner reservations, flowers that will wither in a week, or pressure to buy the "ideal gift." You, your Netflix membership, and some snacks - living life to the fullest without the costly trouble. Who knew that love could be so inexpensive?
27) The cute stuff I won't be receiving this year! (Via Pinterest/ @So True)
Roses, chocolates, and a genuine love note are the adorable things we single people won't be getting this year - wait, we got something! "I'll be here for you all night," text from our couch. That's what true love is!
28) It's almost Valentine's Day and I don't know what to get myself yet (Via Pinterest/ @Tracy Meagher)
Should they give themselves sweets, flowers, or perhaps just a warm blanket to go with their "single and thriving" attitude? Comfort is crucial, but there are countless possibilities!
29) Where do you see yourself on Valentine's Day (Via Pinterest/ @Suddenly...CATS)
A romantic evening for two, only with twice as much coziness and no humans!
30) Lesson learnt (Via Pinterest/ @LittleNivi.Com)
Sometimes, love is about ensuring that the other person enjoys the wonderful things while you are not left out or stuck in the cold. Carry a life jacket at all times, just in case.

All in all, Valentine's Day might be great about grand love gestures and perfect relationships. But it might also remind someone to laugh and poke fun at the absurdity of love and everything that encompasses it. Spent the whole day with the cat, snacked, or otherwise just tried avoiding the drama - you know what today is not so much about things that others seem to expect as finding joy, for instance. After all, sometimes the best kind of love is the one you have with yourself - and maybe a can of Coke.
