Single on Halloween

There's always talk about being single on Valentine's day but everyone seems to overlook this holiday where feeling lonely is a real thing. I mean really, this holiday is set up for a single girl's failure. The whole holiday revolves around sitting at home with a giant bowl of chocolate.

So as a survivor of 23 single Halloweens I can encourage you, it will be okay! You can survive the Halloween parties and trick or treating with out a man.

Here are five tips for surviving Halloween as a single girl:

1. Give yourself permission to eat chocolate. Eat lots of it. Fun-sized chocolate doesn't have calories.
   
2. Avoid matching costumes. Unless being half of Sonny and Cher is your thing. Then by all means go for it.
   
3. Scary movies by yourself is a bad idea. Go for something like Mean Girls or Baby Mama. Because who is a better date than Tina Fey?
   
4. Exploit your singleness. Dress up as "Recently Broken Up". Wear sweats and messy hair and carry around cookie dough and ice cream
   
5. Eat more chocolate. Really ladies. This is your excuse to gorge yourself on candy. Go buy 15 bags of Milky Ways and some candy corn (because that's basically a vegetable right?). And bonus points if you buy it all half price tomorrow. (Because in candy world October 31 and November 1 are the same)
