What To Do At Midnight On NYE When You've Got Nobody To Kiss

It’s a bizarre New Year’s tradition, but one we all feel duly obliged to take part in anyway - the midnight kiss.

When you hear Big Ben strike 12, you have to grab the nearest human and pucker up.

But in case you find yourself feeling a little lonesome, here are 10 things to do instead.

1. Hide in the toilet.

“Oh no. Did I miss midnight?!?!’

2. Check your phone.

*Definitely an important email here somewhere*

3. Call your mum.

She is contractually obliged to support you through this loneliness.

4. Stuff your face.

No one can kiss you with a mouth full of food.

5. Take a strategic power nap.

The energy burst will mean you can stay up all night.

6. Shots, shots, shots.

A round of shots means no one is kissing anyone.

7. Kiss a pet.

There’s always a cat or dog at a house party.

8. Go for a hug.

The platonic alternative to a kiss.

9. Wave your arms in the air.

’Tis the season to be celebrating.

10. Count all the kisses you’ve had in the last 365 days.

That’ll keep you busy till 12.01.
