That\u2019s what we at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/trulymadly.com\/\">Truly Madly<\/a><\/strong> believe in. If you are truly the person you are on your online profile, there is that person to madly fall in love with and share a life with.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Love, will find its way to you and while that\u2019s cooking in the background, there\u2019s no reason you should sit back and couchsurf couple friends\u2019 Facebook timelines. Special days are meant to be just that &#8211; Special!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">First off, if you are someone who accepts that Valentine\u2019s day isn\u2019t just a day for couples, big bada boom. We have arrived! That\u2019s what we have been trying to convey every single day of our lives here at Truly Madly. We say pamper yourself, reconnect with friends and dance a little for no reason. Most importantly, the Friday-factor (yes! go check calendar) makes everything so much easier to plan.\u00a0But then we also realize how we are all waiting to borrow ideas off the internet.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">So here it is, our own mini-list of things to do this Valentine\u2019s Day. We promise this one is truly madly by us for you.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>1. Night Out!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/trulymadly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/monkey-bar-new-delhi-020.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-148 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/trulymadly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/monkey-bar-new-delhi-020.jpg?resize=311%2C500\" alt=\"monkey-bar-new-delhi-020\" width=\"311\" height=\"500\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Nothing can compare. Pub crawls are getting increasingly popular now because Delhi and Gurgaon finally have locations that make hopping from one place to the other convenient. Try Hauz Khas Village, Delhi or Cyber Hub, Gurgaon for a bunch of options. We recommend checking menus out before heading out since some of the places may have special V-Day menus that could or could not include your favorite dish. If you\u2019re looking for one solid place to stick to, try the new ones in town before the novelty wears off.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Truly Madly is excited about:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Monkey Bar (Vasant Kunj)<\/li>\n<li>The Wine Company (CyberHub)<\/li>\n<li>Mia Bella (Hauz Khas Village)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Be sure to book a cab or <a title=\"Driver Bulao\" href=\"http:\/\/www.driverbulao.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><em>bulao<\/em> a chauffeur<\/a> so you don\u2019t drink and drive. Ah, the perks of city life.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>2. Indulgence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Go ahead. Do it. No room for guilt. Leave your &#8216;To Do&#8217; list behind and buy something absolutely exclusive for yourself.

Get innovative<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The DIY (Do It Yourself) fever has caught on and we think a Friday night in calls for some serious creative waves. Pampering yourself can get a little expensive, especially if you\u2019ve already exhausted your kitty for the month. So we\u2019ve compiled a list of the easiest DIY projects around so you can look good, organize your life and have fun without spending much at all. It\u2019s a win-win.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">DIY dessert- Dip strawberries into a jar of Nutella and gobble \u2018em up.

Ask your guests to bring a contribution and get down to organizing a few classic party games to break the ice. The beauty of house parties is that you don\u2019t need to do much- just provide a venue and a guest list and your friends will do the rest. Now that we have places that deliver food till the wee hours of morning, you don\u2019t even have to worry about running out of food.\u00a0Check out FoodPanda, <a title=\"TastyKhana\" href=\"http:\/\/tastykhana.in\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TastyKhana <\/a>or your neighborhood kathi roll expert for effortless party munchies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.

If you\u2019re staying home with a hot cup of cocoa and want to avoid the rom-coms on TV, collect some thrillers and scary flicks and watch them back to back this Friday night. Make some noise, scare the neighbors and spread some of the delayed Halloween spirit all around. We are particularly obsessed with zombie films and games like Dead Trigger 2 and Plants v\/s Zombies these days.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For crazy shrieks-The Conjuring,\u00a0Insidious<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For moderate screams-\u00a0Carrie,\u00a0The Orphan<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Have fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Better late than run-of-the-mill, incompatible and awkward.
