If it helps y'all any, February 11th is "National Satisfied Being Single Day."

FWIW, I know some really good Speed Dating success stories, too!

The chick who I was supposed to go speed dating with found a date who wanted to take her out...so I decided NOT to go and keep my dignity.

Some kid who hates V-Day too wanted to take me somewhere. I said yes, but in actuality I want to stay home and do my homework.

I did send cards to my FAMILY though. They don't hate the holiday.

So I am already feeling like an asshole for not being in a relationship. Go by the grocery store to get some allergy medicine, 'cause I'm all stopped up and feel like crap. It's chock full 'o people gettign flowers and romantic crap and stuff. Then, because I am apparently not hating tonight enough, the ex calls from a date with the new man to tell me that I was being thought of and "its ok though, I am just calling everyone and letting them know I am thinking of them on valentines day."

Go fuck yourself.

Plus, I now feel like a giant vagina for being bothered by it.

It's either two or three years in a row for me and no big deal anymore. But I'm an odd duck too. I firmly believe that if you need a special day to tell someone how you feel about them, your relationship needs more help than VDay can give you.......

Think of the money you aren't spending though, that should cheer you up.

And why is she calling people while ON A DATE??????? Doesn't say much for the date.

Amusing laugh at commercialism's expense!

OMG....what an idiot! where the hell was her date when she was calling her ex? why is she calling people, much less her ex while on a date? the date must of not been that great!

Either the date was sucking or she's stillhung up on you.

That, or she's just a mean girl who was wanting to rub it in your face

bumping for tomorrow.

just a moneymaking ploy day

Valentines Day blows...test today, big party tonight which I cant go to because I have a test at 8 am tomorrow, our intramural softball game got cancelled which was the one thing I was actually looking forward to about this week, not to mention the fact that every single one of my friends has a boyfriend/girlfriend and they all make me sick

Talk about commercial holiday... on the news this morning they had a reporter spend some time with a local florist.

Apparently they had an order for SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS WORTH OF ROSES.

WTF?

They're all going to die in a week anyway!!

In order to get a card/flowers/gift/etc from my husband, I would have had to have said on Sat. "Hey, V-day is this week, you might want to go get something..." and I'm so not going to do that. (Same applies for Christmas & Birthday...I usually just end up getting myself something, but hey, at least I know I'm going to like it!;) ;) )

This morning some guy wanted to propose to his girlfriend on the radio.... and she said NO!

Hahahaha. Ok, I know that really sucks for him, but seriously. Why would you ask unless you are CERTAIN she is going to say yes? And I mean like 150% sure! :p

Maybe he was sure. Just like the girls on Maury Povich are sure who their baby's father is. :p I mean, it doesn't make sense to you or me, but clearly they're confident.

stupid flowers, stupid cards, stupid day, stupid candy, stupid...STUPID

Add to that stupid co-worker who got stupid flowers from her stupid boyfriend.

Better than the alternative: I just got dumped by my fiance on valentines day.

BIG HUG

-Rudey

I got stupid flowers :( LOL

Because you can never read women, yet they expect you to know exactly what they are thinking all of the time.

Seriously though, burn for him. Sorry to the GC one that was dumped as well.

Woops. Now I AM that stupid person (minus the word boyfriend). My friend Mike sent me flowers. Wow. Completely unexpected. What a sweet friend.


(p.s. Valentine's Day is still stupid. ;))

for all the haters
 

Well that's a person who has more money than sense.

I would rather have a box of chocolates over flowers any day!

I've never been big on Valentine's Day and now that I'm with someone, I'm still not excited about it. Plus, Mr. Pi Phi is very sick but he still wants to go out tonight even though I told him that I would go to his place and take care of him.

Today is just like any other day. One shouldn't have to go nuts one day of the year telling the person they're with that they love them. They should do it every day. You don't need to give some flowers or silk boxers to tell them that you love them.
