    Won't have anybody for V-Day this year either. I've been single since my ex left me in 2011, but for the life of me I can't figure out that whole dating thing *lol*.
    So I think I will spend V-Day with my puppy and give him lots of treats. He'll appreciate that :smiley:

    Maybe next year all of us singles will be luckier and have a special somebody that will send us an "I love you card" (which is really all I am missing on V-Day ... I love greeting cards).

    As the perpetually single person, it's a hard "holiday" because you're bombarded with the whole couples thing. And unless it's leap year, it's a reminder that my birthday is exactly six weeks away. I love the Facebook posts that pop up proclaiming it Single Awareness Day. Some of the anti-Valentine cartoons/gifs/jpgs I find are great.

    I've gotten less depressed over the years, because that's the way it's going to be, but I try to be my own valentine and by myself a rose and definitely partake in some cheap, yet yummy chocolate. And even a chocolate rose. Also, Dunkin donuts makes a brownie batter donut for this time of year, shaped like a heart, with lovely brownie batter inside. It's the one day of the year I have one of their donuts. Worth every calorie and carb.

    So, I just try to remember that no matter what, I always have me :kissing_closed_eyes:

    I'm single but it's not so bad. I work with 5 guys who have become big brothers. I get a box of candy and flowers from them, plus they treat me to lunch on Valentine's day.

    Of course, that might be payment because I'm the one who reminds them of birthday's, anniversaries, and Valentine's day.

    Especially if you are single! I never understood why women watch sappy love stories when they are single or just been broken up with. That's like having someone eat a huge steak dinner in front of you when you haven't eaten in over a week and not giving you a bite.

    I'm glad I'm single on Valentine's day for the following reasons:

    1. I don't have to spend money on stupid pink hearty stuff
    2. I dont have to pretend to like receiving stupid pink hearty stuff
    3. Any guy out alone is most likely single hehehe...unless he is at the store buying stupid pink hearty stuff

    No, because you don't have to show love JUST to a significant other. I exchange flowers and whatnot with people I volunteer with. Just another good reminder to give love :)

    Absolutely not! I've never been that keen on celebrating Valentine's day (even when I was in a relationship) but, I've come around to celebrating the freedoms that single life affords me with some of my single mates.

    I am usually more interested in the day after Valentine's Day. 50% off chocolate! Woo! Although this year I'll just stand over the candy and breath in the wonderful scents. I also use the actual day to hang out with friends and what not

    Maybe I'll come clean some day. You're not going to get me to say it out loud though.
