With Valentines just right around the corner, in less than two days, everyone is running around buying flowers, chocolate, gifts for their loved ones. Romance is in the air, heck even the birds are singing songs of love.
Yet for another year in a row, I will be with out a valentine, I view the day as a s.a.d day aka single awareness day; as pathetic as it sounds/to hear me say this, I have never had a valentine, even when I had a boyfriend during this holiday, they had other plans with someone else,*ouch*
It's not that Valentines Day is as of anymore importance than any other day of the year, I mean if you love someone you shouldn't just have Hallmark/globally celebrated holiday to tell you to romance/surprise and spill your heart to your love one day a year, it should be done every day.
I guess why today is such a downer is if you don't have someone to spend it with you are in someways exiled from society, it seems as though every and all activities become "couples only" so one is "forced" to be locked away in their homes. Though I am probably going to a singles anti- vday party and though I know I will have a blast, I still as selfish as this sounds, would like to spend the day with someone who cares about me; finally see what it's like to have a Valentine. Hell I am 20 years old, and just connect Valentines day with walking in on my boyfriend cheating on me in my on room! ( yea it's happened twice, with 2 different boyfriends), it's a total slap in the face.
I am not your average girl I am far from materialistic and believe it's the little things in life that count the most and it's the thought/attempt is what's important. I love to romance and surprise who I am with, am thoughtful caring and understanding.
Which seems insignificant and it seems that all that matters is spreading your legs (don't get me wrong I love sex, but hate cheating, and believe there are many other ways to get deeply intimate with someone)
but oh well.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls
Raise your glasses and let me propose a toast, here is to laughing and having fun regardless of your relationship status, here is to saying fuck you to valentines day I don't need someone, here is to keeping the box of chocolate all to ourselves and keeping our wallets full, here is to doing what you want to do when you want to, here is to going out expanding your mind, here is to eliminating negative thinking, here is to to pampering and celebrating the most important person in your life, yourself. Happy Singles Valentines Day to all.
