Here are some helpful tips on what to do and what not to do on the Big Red Day. V-day is only a couple of days away make sure you'll enjoy that day whether you are single or in a relationship.
DOs
Buy Sexy Lingerie
Whether you’re single or coupled up, some of the cutest undergarments arrive in stores just before Valentine’s Day, so treat yourself to something pretty.
Spend the day with your best girlfriends
A night with the girls is always guaranteed fun. Just ask the ladies of Sex and the City, and while you’re at it, go ahead and rent the movie, too.
Suggest an alternative to roses
Haven’t you heard? We’re in a recession. Instead of overdone and overpriced roses, tell your man how much you love Gerber daisies or how pretty you think a bouquet of baby’s breath can be.
DONTs
Do not contact your EX
A super no,no. Resist the urge to call, e-mail, Friendster, Facebook, instant-message or text your ex. Trust us, no good can come of this. And if he contacts you? Well, that’s why your phone has caller ID and an ignore button.
DON’T expect your man to heart February 14 as much as you do.
Even the most sentimental male sweetheart isn’t going to ooh and ahh over every red-and-white stuffed animal/heart/candy in his tracks.
DON’T get hung up on the date.
It’s OK to celebrate the big day sometime other than February 14. Choose another day during the week Valentine’s Day falls; reservations will be easier to get, and prices will be cheaper

I am so busy with Chinese New Year that I forgot Valentine Day is around the corner
