Valentines Day happy hours and events for singles in D.C.

Some breakups just don’t go well, and weeks or months later, you find yourself incandescent with fury at the mention of that person’s name. We get it. Let go of your anger at Throw Social’s Axe Your Ex party, which allows you to put your ex’s photo — or a poem they wrote you, or an old Valentine’s Day card — on a wooden bull’s-eye and hurl full-size axes at those no-longer-romantic keepsakes. Cathartic, if a little bit creepy. Once everything’s out of your system, there are half-price cocktails, a DJ, karaoke and plenty of room to mingle. Just think twice about posting images of the ax through your ex’s photo on social media. If that person were to go missing, you might find your socials entered as evidence on “Dateline NBC.” Feb. 14 at 4 p.m. Throw Social, 1401 Okie St. NE. throwsocial.com. Free entry; games (including ax throwing) and drinks extra.
