    Just another day. I'm all too happy to stay far away from crowded restaurants and movie theaters that day.
  • the thing for me is i dont like being out on vday because of all the "love" stuff around it annoys me, i guess im not a "lovey" type of person haha and not to mention i dont like the guys who have asked me out and i would hate to be viewed as a couple when we are definatly not lol. maybe movie and wine wth my kitties? lol

    Hang at home with a friend or something, or alone with the cats. Wine is always good.

    Haha alone with cats... i'm pretty sure i will end up being the crazy cat lady at this rate... I'm planning on hiring a ridiculously unromantic movie, that preferably has a little eye candy, just because.

    But i agree, its really just another day :)

    Am almost always single on Valentine's (likely including this year) - it's going to be a hectic day at work, but in the evening I plan to hit the gym for a heavy session - good place to avoid it all!

    I am single and for valentines day I will be going to a free Heart to heart luncheon given by my local medical association. It's a health and wellness lunch that will be held in a huge banquet hall and will have many speakers there to inform people about the importance of living a healthy life. It's suppose to be huge. Happens annually, and hundreds show up to take advantage of all the free information that will be presented that day.

    I'm looking forward to learning as much a possible from these Dr's, physical fitness trainers and nutritionist. As for the evening, I'm at home with kids. Hope what ever you do, you have a wonderful day.

    so im single, and its going to be valentines day soon,.....I dont know what I should do. I have been asked out...... but unless im "with" someone I wont go on a date on v-day, just how I am, also all my friends are taken or married and I would defiantly not want to be the 3rd wheel. so what could I do alone? maybe rent a movie and just hang out? any ideas? what are all my single MFP buddies doing for vday?

    you dont have to do anything.. I have a bf.. and i dont do anything.. V-day is nothing special to me... i find it lame.. and im just not into it. :) a movie sounds fun tho..

    I think it's a lame holiday even for couples. Needless to say, since I am single, I won't be doing anything special. Also, my opinion has nothing to do with the fact I have never been in a relationship on Vday.

    i don't know but if I were single and had no boyfriend or date, I'd be releived. those restaurants are so packed and you can't get a table sometimes can't make reservations, sometimes there's a 2 hour wait. i have a little menu planned for just in case i get taken out, but we kind of swore of eating out on that day for the above reasons, it's just so many men looking pained at having to sit there and starve waiting for a table because they are supposed to. if i were single i'd stay home with yummy food and good movies and that's it. maybe have friends over of all kinds single and in relationships because i think everyone could use a respite from that overcrowded restaurant scene.

    I broke up with my boyfriend a few days ago. So strangely, yes, I'm single.

    I don't really care about that, I'd go out because it's Thursday night and get some drinks with single friends. Why be down because of this? Love is a great thing, and I'll have it again in my life, even if it won't happen by February 14.

    Fortunately for me, my wife isn't a sucker, and is as immune to holiday garbage as I am. Thus, we'll be avoiding all of the crowds of people and sitting our happy *kitten* at home for dinner, just as we always do.

    Wait...no...the 14th in a Thursday. We'll be deadlifting, and hopefully the gym will be nearly empty due to the aforementioned crowds of people being out doing whatever it is they do.

    I'm single with no Valentine this year and I'm not sure what I'm doing this year.
    I'll probably just end up staying at home and relaxing.

    My s/o and I are on a 'break' so technically yes, I'll be single on Valentine's Day. I'm going to power through my shift at work, then lounge about at home, have a hot bath, and be kind to myself. Treat yourself to something nice, and remember it's just one random day out of the year that's emphasized more so than others for romance for no good reason. If you don't have someone to share your love with, shower it on yourself instead. :)

    No Valentine at this point, I don't expect to have one on such short notice and I haven't since 2005, but I'm thinking about just treating myself out to dinner somewhere..

    ..who am I kidding. I'll be kicking some fitness butt. I'll use my continued singledom as gas to throw on the ever burning fire.
