Ah, Valentine’s day. February fourteenth marks that special moment in the year when Hallmark cashes in on our emotions and cupid gets busy shooting arrows. Whether you’re indifferent, excited, upset, or madly in love—there are seven things you just shouldn’t do on this lovey-dovey holiday.

See a few do-not-do’s below:

• Go on a first date. First dates are hard enough, why add the extra pressure?
• Call your ex. Abort mission! On a day like this, it’s normal for your thoughts to drift to the one you used to be with, but you broke up for a reason. So, spare yourself the emotional next-day hangover and skip the reunion.
• Overlook the good things in your life. It’s hard not to get caught up in the tornado of sweet hearts and teddy bears and chocolates—but there are far more important things in life. Make a list to remind yourself of the good things in your life and be thankful for them.
