\"Places<\/a>And so begins the countdown to Valentine\u2019s Day, the world\u2019s most-hated commercialised holiday.\u00a0Does it serve any other purpose in life other than to make you feel terrible about being single\/being\u00a0poor\/your relationship\/letting your partner down? No.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re about to suffer through another Hallmark-created holiday with someone you cannot\u00a0stand anymore, don\u2019t do the right thing and call it a day, or try to make more of an effort, just take\u00a0yourself on holiday, and cheat! That way you get the security of a relationship, but all the fun of\u00a0being single! Here\u2019s our ultimate guide to the best destinations around the world to cheat in.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Cheating in Australia<\/h2>\n

It would almost be a crime to visit the land of Hugh Jackman and Elle McPherson and stay faithful,\u00a0right? Everyone knows it\u2019s not cheating if you\u2019re in different hemispheres anyway. It\u2019s not as if\u00a0pictures on Facebook can be seen around the world\u2026<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 5\/5: you\u2019ve travelled to the other side of the world, probably paid out just under\u00a0a grand, all so you can attempt to cheat without getting caught. You\u2019re now dirt-poor, and the\u00a0ultimate prat. Well done.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in Ireland<\/h2>\n

So you\u2019ve watched PS I Love You one too many times, and concluded that nothing your boyfriend\/\u00a0fianc\u00e9\/husband could ever do will be as funny\/cute\/adorable\/perfect as your own Irish man. Sound\u00a0familiar? Well you\u2019re not alone. Thousands of women flock to the land of the leprechaun to find\u00a0their knight in shining armour, yet only find jockeys measuring up to 5\u2019, and on a stricter diet than\u00a0the post-Christmas one. But if the Irish accent more than makes up for the height difference, and\u00a0you can cope with questionable alcohol habits and the racing schedule, then hop on the ferry over to\u00a0Dublin.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 4\/5: if you\u2019re willing to overlook most of the personality quirks of Irish men, and still\u00a0choose them over your current partner, then you\u2019re more desperate than most.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in London<\/h2>\n

As documented in a popular TV show, Chelsea girls love a cheater. Don your best tux, order some\u00a0new business cards (because you must work in the City), and be prepared to pay out at least \u00a3500 on\u00a0a bottle of Bolly. They\u2019ll be more than happy to play a part in ruining your relationship: anything for a\u00a0bit of drama dahling.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 2\/5: absolutely no imagination involved with this. Minimal effort: you only need to\u00a0find a suit and figure out what a banker actually does. Easy, yes, but even more lies to keep on top of.\u00a0Plus, there\u2019s no drama unless girlfriend\/wife finds out… Good luck.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in Magaluf, Malia, Ibiza, Zante\u2026<\/h2>\n

The failsafe option for the classiest (read: \u2018most desperate\u2019) of cheaters. And obviously, if you\u2019re the\u00a0only one in a relationship in your group, you HAVE to cheat. It\u2019s the rules, didn\u2019t you know? You\u2019ll\u00a0lose ALL YOUR LAD POINTS if you show the slightest respect for your girlfriend, so quick, line up the\u00a0sambucas, and prepare your \u201cbut babe, I just had so much to drink, and you know I wouldn\u2019t do it\u00a0sober, and babe I just love you so much\u201d speech.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating<\/strong>: 1\/5: you really are the worst kind of human being.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in the Maldives<\/h2>\n

If no one finds your secret stash of bank accounts, you\u2019ll be pretty safe in the middle of nowhere.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 4\/5: again, well done for the forward thinking and potential hiding, your other half\u00a0isn\u2019t likely to wander in on you here, but you may wish you saved the money and the effort of lying\u00a0for something slightly more worthwhile.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in France<\/h2>\n

Ah Paris: the official city of romance. Where better to establish yourself as a cheat: it\u2019s basically the\u00a0equivalent of taking a Kindle with you to visit William Shakespeare\u2019s birthplace. Maybe you\u2019re just\u00a0being super hip and ironic though \u2013 it\u2019s not cheating when you\u2019re working to destroy the stereotypes\u00a0that have been placed upon our culture and history for centuries: all in the name of social justice and\u00a0removing the stigma of romance from Paris.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating<\/strong>: 2\/5: low points for originality, and even lower points for being a pompous clich\u00e9\u00a0who thinks Paris is romantic in the first place.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in Argentina<\/h2>\n

Hats off to whoever can resist millionaire polo-players strutting around with their shirts off. Ponies\u00a0and topless men: guaranteed to wear down the willpower of even the strongest women.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 5\/5: an amazing country, and well, accidents happen.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in New York<\/h2>\n

Home to some of the best love stories ever: Ross and Rachel, Holly Golightly and Paul Varjak, Carrie\u00a0and Big, Harry and Sally. It\u2019s only natural to want to begin your affair in a city with as much as history\u00a0as New York \u2013 everyone\u2019s seen the Empire State Building scene in An Affair to Remember. Sadly,\u00a0films don\u2019t ring true in the real world, and you\u2019re much more likely going to channel Carrie Bradshaw\u00a0and screw over your kind, considerate boyfriend\/fianc\u00e9\/husband for a complete and utter idiot who\u00a0leaves you at the altar.<\/p>\n

Guess you could always try the \u201cwe were on a break\u201d thing if it backfires.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 3\/5: pretty standard, it\u2019s not hard to cheat in a city. Although don\u2019t expect your\u00a0sorry story to finish up like the films you\u2019ve seen.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating in Thailand<\/h2>\n

With full moon parties quickly becoming the new Ibizia for middle class offspring, all pumped full\u00a0of alcohol and drugs, you\u2019re likely to make a couple of pretty bad mistakes. When you\u2019re in a place\u00a0\u00a0that\u2019s so far removed from everything you\u2019ve ever grown accustomed to, it\u2019s quite easy to forget\u00a0that your real life does exist.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating:<\/strong> 3\/5: there are much better things to be doing in this country than schlepping around\u00a0looking for a partner in crime.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheating Near Home (20 minutes down the road)<\/h2>\n

To be honest, if you\u2019re gonna cheat, you\u2019re gonna cheat.<\/p>\n

Love Rat Rating: ZERO OUT OF FIVE you pathetic loser. At least break yourself financially with an\u00a0extravagant holiday if you\u2019re going to break someone\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n
