    why do you need one day of the year to tell someone you love them, you don't have to spend fortunes to say 'i love you' you should do it EVERY DAY, it's just a money making scam anyway, someone's getting rich on the back of it (cynical? me? of course i am, lol)

    If only people realized that

    This is the first Valentine's Day since my divorce last year, so my first one "alone" in 9 years. Actually I have TWO awesome Valentines to celebrate with - my daughters!

    Hey I'm not single for the past 30 years. Been put down called fat and lazy all year round. But on V Dat get a cheap box of chocolate with a dollar store card. Does it matter??

    It's just a commericalised holiday anyway, if you can only mutter the words "I love you" or "I fancy you" once a year then theres something wrong.

    I'll be working out and not worrying about it one bit, I like the sound of the Anti Valentine stuff

    Single and embracing it! Its nice to have the time to put some focus on myself and make the changes that I have been saying I was going to for years. Doesn't bother me at all to be alone on valentines day, I work with kids so we always celebrate during the day with treats and tons of pink and red lol it may not be romantic but hey you can dress like a fool (I've already got my socks picked out for the day) and just enjoy yourself. Anyone feel free to add me, can never have too much support!

    I'm NOT single but I've chosen to not participate in Valentine's day this year. I think it's a dumb holiday. My boyfriend seemed fine with that anyways. No stupid flowers or chocolate, stuff I don't need

    Married, but V-day is like any other day around here. He will go play cards with his buds and I'll be home with my nose stuck in my Kindle. :bigsmile:

    Hmmmm, this topic has inspired me to buy myself flowers. Seriously. I think I will. I cant remember the last time I had a date on Valentine's Day.

    I keep telling myself I should at least try to get a date, but meh. Still don't care. Guess I'm not ready. At this point I might as well just wait another year and a couple of months until I move somewhere I actually want to live.

    Single here, too. And I am perfectly happy with it! However, I some how I get sucked into friends' relationship woes... Yeah, I am THAT single friend who gives the best relationship advice, lol.

    I was dumped 3 years ago ON Valentine's Day (were together over 2 years), so the day is sort of bitter-sweet for me. But I'd rather be single and work on myself, than be in a relationship just for the sake of being in one! Cheers to the single life, and I'll worry about next year after I am totally happy with myself!! =)

    I would like to be your friend and I am new to this program and not sure how to add friends. I too also seem to be alone during this holiday so we can motivate each other. My father passed away this week and although I know he is in a better place, I miss him.

    Married for 17 years and we don't celebrate valentines day.
    valentines day is for retailers.
    I love all those who said it is a 'love yourself' day. There should be more of those, in my humble opinion.
    Being single doesn't mean one is second rate.
    Have a lovely day whatever you do.
    kind regards,

    Ben

    Awww, now if that isn't enough to cheer up those of you who are feeling down about being single on Valentines Day, I don't know what will. Thank you Ben! I completely agree with you too, I think it's just an occasion for retailers to make a bucket load selling flowers and chocolate :smile:

    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.

    Yep! exactly!

    Yepp! Single here too. It doesn't seem that I have a boyfriend for the V-day. It would be nice but again not this year.
    It seems the relationships end just before they have to put out for V-day.

    I'm not single this year, but last year, a guy who i was seeing for almost a year, broke my heart ON valentines day. Nothing is worse then that.

    Yup. A bunch of us single people [of both sexes] plan on spending our Valentines Day watching Bruce Willis blow stuff up in the next Die Hard movie!

    Single too! I've actually never had a Valentine. Watching many people be miserable *****es each year, has made me grown to not care for the "holiday" anymore. So, I don't mind being alone :smile:

    I have a date...with the tredmill. haha.
    Single as well. Not bitter, just a little tart. haha
    I'll be kicking *kitten* at the gym and enjoying every second of it. Happy S.A.D. ( Singles Awareness Day) or Valetine's Day, whichever you prefer.

    :D
