in Introduce Yourself
It seems like no matter what, I'm always single for this holiday.

My plan is to celebrate by working out and earning the chocolate/wine goodness I will indulge in. :P

(Also, looking for new friends to motivate, add me!)

    I feel your pain sister! I haven't had a Valentine since my divorce 5 yrs ago!!! I've allready bought my chocolate and am keeping a running total of the extra calories I'm earning so I can enjoy it with some wine and a good movie...action, not romantic comedy!!! :laugh:

    Single and very happy to remain that way! I call it solo. Flying solo. Wheeeee!!!!!!!!

    But now that you mention it, I may have to get a package of very dark chocolates to enjoy all by myself.

    I am! And for some reason it is bothering me a LOT more than I thought that it would. I will just be my own Valentine and buy my own flowers.

    Yup! But I was in a long-term relationship this time last year, and it's not like my ex-boyfriend ever did anything for valentine's day (or birthdays, or christmas, etc, lol). I'm going to be reveling in my singledom and rocking it at the gym!

    Hell, even when I was in a relationship, we never celebrated anything. Forget about even a card! Not a romantic bone in his body!
    Now, I'm not totally sure of my relationship status this year. I'm just making him home made peanut butter cookies & a card. However,
    I will be alone as we live in different states.

    Haha, I'm not only single on V-day, I'm a full-time bachelorette! All 26 years of my life.

    I've had my share of flings of course, but never anything serious. I've never been on a real date before either, but I don't think anyone really does that anymore...

    But Im not a huge fan of romance, it embarrasses me kinda, so valentines day would probably not be celebrated regardless

    Enjoy your chocolate!!!

    I'm single as well ... trying not to feel sorry for myself.. That will lead to eating the wrong things.. Instead I am planning on pampering myself and my daughter since she loves me !! Dinner by candle light and some skinny cow dessert for me , she is having chocolate kisses.. then a relaxing bath and bed.. its only one day ...no biggie.. The bigger issue is loving me all year long so hopefully I can be healthier next valentines and it might not bother me to be single .. I'm in need of friends so pls ADD ME !!!

    Yep! The last two years I was in a relationship and he didn't even bring up the fact that it was Valentine's Day the first year and last year we were supposed to have lunch together and he "overslept and forgot". So this year, I'm getting dressed up and taking myself out!! And I can't wait! :) I'm not ashamed or embarrassed - I'm going to my favorite restaurant and sitting by myself and I'm gonna enjoy it :)

    Solo (stealing this, thanks!) for the first time in 13 years for the holiday. But like several of you pointed out, either it wasn't celebrated or my SO was sort of lame about it. This year? I'm treating myself like a freakin' queen.

    I don't know what the forum policy is on posting links, but I'll try. This is funny and totally awesome:

    Happy Valentine's Day to all the solo MFP'ers!

    I have been single on this holiday every year except 2. I like to think of it as Singles awareness day.... Doesn't bother me that i am single. I do however think it is fun to celebrate when you do have a special someone.

    Yup single. Been single most my life. Doesn't bother me 'cause I don't really have time for a partner other than thinking that some dude out there is really missing out lol

    I'm single but I'm not too worried about it. Valentines Day is overrated (says the bitter single girl, haha). Sine I don't have a date and I couldn't resist all the novelty gifts in the stores, I ended up buying cute little cards and gifts and candies for my friends and my sister because I know they don't have dates and will be having a pity party. I'm also gonna get my nails done and pampering myself.

    Do you know this site is a constant revelation to me! I'd never once in my 53 years thought of having Vee Day as a Mee Day! Yo! yes I'm going to earn those little indulgences and love me on V Day! Brilliant. :-D

    I think we were dating the same guy! Mine never did anything for me either. First time in my life I actually had a Valentine and not even a card or anything. I too will rock out at the gym. It'll be more fun anyways.
