still haven''t found what you''re looking for? join the crowd! and what''s more, it''s time to party, have one heck of a time. instead of moping around, firmly say, ''what the hey'' or something more unprintable and get together with other singles and have a swinging good time. "one of the best valentine''s i''ve ever had was back in college. a big group of us got together in hostel and had a pajama party with a new spin.
we all wore shorts, lots of skin, nominated a good dancer to do the exotic for us and ordered in fantastic food," says manna, urging all singles to make a night of it. "we danced, we got drunk and went to a friend''s place and watched dirty movies," says abhay, another single who''s looking forward to pubhopping this year too. but he adds, "i wish single men in bars would behave. they needn''t make their desperation so apparent by ogling or trying to cop a feel and ending the evening in a brawl." and another singular way of spending a singles valentine''s is, "a bunch of single friends – boys and girls - and i are heading out for a midnight picnic up in the rocks. we''re taking lots of cold cuts and will open a couple of bottles of champagne and make a night of it. who cares if we don''t have partners – we still have our friends," says medha, determined to party. hear! hear! sudhasmehta@indiatimes.com
