Anti-Valentine's Day Party Games for Girls

Plan a party with your single friends and play anti-Valentine's Day games.

Unless you have a special someone in your life, you're probably not too excited about Valentine's Day. However, you don't have to sit at home and sulk when couples celebrate February 14th. Invite a few of your single friends over and play anti-Valentine's Day games that are sure to get laughs from everyone.

Best Things About Being Single

Give all of your guests a piece of paper and a pen or pencil. Have each guest create a list of all the things that they think are best about being single. Time the game for one or two minutes. Have everyone read their list out loud when the time is up. Give a prize to the person who is able to list the most items or for the person who is able to come up with the most creative or funniest list.

Celebrity Breakups

Create a list of names of male and female celebrities on a piece of paper. Your guests have to list all of the past partners that the celebrities have had. For example, if you have Brad Pitt, your guests can write Gwyneth Paltrow, Juliette Lewis and Jennifer Aniston. Your guests can write Richard Burton, Larry Fortensky and Eddie Fisher beside Elizabeth Taylor's name. The person who lists the most names wins the game.

Love Song Karaoke

Invite your guests to sing karaoke to some well-known anti-love songs. Some songs to choose from include Tina Turner's "What's Love Got To Do With it," Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive," Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel," Beyonce's "Irreplaceable" and Gloria Estefan's "Words Get in the Way." Select three friends to stand in as judges to score each singer. The singer with the highest score at the end of the game wins.

Pin the Horns on the Ex

"Pin the Horns on the Ex" is a simple variation of "Pin the Tail on the Donkey." Draw an image of a man on a large piece of paper and tape it to a wall. Draw a picture of devil's horns and make several copies. Cut out the devil's horns and give one to each player. Line up each of your guests so that everyone gets a turn trying to stick the horns as close to the image of the man's head as possible. The person to do so wins. Likewise, you can enlarge an actual picture of someone's ex-boyfriend or girlfriend and use that instead of a drawing.
