Singles: Don’t spend Valentine’s Day with Ben and Jerry. Put the ice cream back in the freezer and venture out on the town.

There is plenty to do over Valentine’s weekend in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. So pull out that new dress or new tie and enjoy what some consider the most romantic holiday.

Go to the movies.

Don’t want to be alone? Join approximately 100 others, depending on the theater, and catch up on the latest box office hits.

Go to a play.

Need a good laugh? Watch the comedy, “Travesties” at Theatre Three at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday.

Rent a movie.

Put on your PJ’s and cozy up in front of the fire. Invite a few friends over, share a bowl of popcorn and watch some great classics such as “Pretty Woman”, “Love Actually” or “The Notebook”. If you have time, why not watch all three?

Go to a concert.

Head to the House of Blues on Feb. 13 to watch Plain White T’s perform.

Go out to eat.

Everyone has to eat, even on Valentine’s Day. Get a group of your closest friends and have a progressive dinner in Uptown. Start with drinks and appetizers at Sfuzzi’s then grab dinner at Nick and Sam’s. Finish with dessert at Bread Winners.

Regardless of your relationship status, Valentine’s Day can be fun without the bouquets of flowers and chocolates.
