Matchmakers' Advice for Valentine's Day 2025
Not in a relationship this Valentine's Day? Make the most of it.

Not in a relationship this Valentine's Day? Make the most of it. With a little help from UT Match, this just may be your last Valentine's Day alone! Instead of letting the day pass you by, use it as an opportunity to celebrate love, growth and happiness - starting with yourself. Here are five ways to make this Valentine's Day memorable and meaningful, whether you're single or preparing for the love story that's on its way.
1. Treat Yourself to Something Special
Who says Valentine's Day gifts are just for couples? Buy yourself something you've been eyeing - a new book, a cozy sweater, or a delicious box of gourmet chocolates. Investing in your own happiness is never a waste. Our favorites right now: Chanel Bleu de Chanel Eau de Parfum Spray for men $132 at nordstrom.com, Taby Original: Radical Self Love Cardigan $99.00 at shoptaby.com, and the Toffee/Caramel Combination ($52.95) from V Chocolates at vchocolates.com.
2. Host a "Love Your Life" Dinner Party
Gather friends or family for a night of great food, good conversation, and laughter. Make it a potluck or cook together and celebrate all the love already in your life - romantic or not.
3. Try Something New
Step outside your routine! Take a dance class, try a new recipe (Marry Me Chicken could give you some inspiration), or visit a place you've never been. Creating new experiences boosts your confidence and reminds you that life is full of exciting possibilities.
4. Practice Self-Reflection and Goal Setting
Use this day to focus on what you want in love and life. Write down qualities you'd like in a future partner. Plan to take them to UT Match soon. Manifest it, then take action. Why not give our membership pool a try?
