Single on Valentine's Day: what will you be doing?

Give it a couple years…it does start to kinda suck. But it’s not the end of the world.

the last time I had an SO on 2/14 was over 20 years ago. It was okay at first, then it royally sucked, now - who cares.
But for the last 4 years, my best friend, also without, and I go out every 2/14 have a few drinks and celebrate being single.

I’ll be writing or working on that stupid game. Oh, how I have grown to loathe the game. Must finish, though.

My mommy always buys me a card, at least. :smiley:

Wow. Here I was feeling a little bummed about not having anything fun to do on V-Day, but it sounds like your friend probably wins for the most depressing Valentine’s Day plans.

So, yeah, no special plans here. I guess I’ll probably just stay home. Maybe I’ll wait to watch my tape of the Arrested Development finale until that night (since I’ll probably be too busy studying for some exams to watch it over the weekend). That way I’ll have a bright spot to look forward to in a day that can be a bit of a downer. Sigh. Even though I’m normally very content with being single, and I know V-Day is basically just a crass marketing gimmick…it still kinda bums me out.

It’s either that or hang out with Janice.

Oh, wait, that was Chandler.

I’ll work in the morning, study all afternoon, and watch Scrubs and The Shield at night. Sounds like a typical Tuesday for me.

I’ll be crying myself to sleep. Same as last year. Same as every year.
Okay, I’m exaggerating.

Trying not to think about my recent ex. She and I were supposed to go to Kansas City this weekend.

sigh

Dad will probably buy me chocolates and a balloon, though. He’s a swell fella.

It’ll be just another day for me. I forgot all about that little Hallmark holiday until someone at work mentioned it today. I of course had to make the obligatory mention of March 14, steak and bj day. Obviously not safe for work if you google it from your cube.

Tuesdays I volunteer at the local hospital, so I’ll be doing that.

I’ll also watch for the next day, when all the leftover chocolate goes on sale.

House! House House House! I’ll be watching House. Valentines’ Day nothing. I want me some acerbic doctor, straight up and on the rocks. Er, yeah.

There is the smallest possibility of the barest hint of an outside chance that I might be having a date in the near future. I haven’t had the chance to ask her yet. I was toying with the idea of being all cute and saying, “Will you be my Valentine?” but that’s a bit much even for me.

:dubious:

Here’s where I turn back on you what you’ve been telling me and say, “Go ahead and do it!”

Not so easy, is it?

Obviously the google ads know what we want: ice cream.

Well, who’s to say I’ll be single by Tuesday? Oh, right, experience.

I’ll just being doing what I normally do. Classes, hanging out with friends, homework, computer games…

Browsing various and sundry forums, sleeping and then getting up and going to work.

Actually, truth be told, the day really doen’t depress me. I’m happy being single right now.

I have a appointment with my Doctor who is two hours away, so I will be on the road a good part of the day.

Beyond that, I will treat it as any other day.

Hopping onto buses and visiting someone I’ve never met before. That it will be Feb 14 is nothing – to me, it’s just another day.

Go to class, eat, sleep. I use to feel sad about Valentines Day. Now I have become a little more apathetic.

Gleefully counting all the money I will save not having to buy a Card, chocolates, flowers, dinner, and jewelry.

And celebrating.

Strange thing is, I’m doing this for real :smiley:

Well, I’ll just go to work on Tuesday, which happens to be my Wednesday. Since I’m so far ahead of most of y’all, your ‘today’ is actually my ‘tomorrow’, which also makes your ‘yesterday’ my ‘today’, keeping ‘tonight’ (right now) ‘last night’ for you, most of the time. It’s tough to explain, but it’ll all make sense sometime ‘next week’.

And yet with genius like this, I wonder why I can never find a date. :confused:
