2. overrated holiday, much like new year's
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 08:15 PM by redwitch
buy yourself some gorgeous flowers, great chocolate, etc. Get a facial, go to a movie. Don't be sad, it's just a Hallmark holiday!

3. Make it about friends instead.
Make it about family. Hell, make it about your pets, if you have to.

Everyone knows I'm not involved in the Valentine's Day scene, but it really is something of a Hallmark holiday anyway. Find a way to make it meaningful, with or without a lover, and think of the money you save by not having to splurge on any one person. :)

6. Viagra?
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 09:37 PM by ocelot
Sorry, couldn't resist.

:hug:

I haven't "celebrated" the day in about 20 years so I don't care any more. But if you're still young enough for even the possibility of it and nothing happens, it's kind of depressing. I remember when it did bother me.

You're not alone, if that helps.

12. I didn't mean to be hard-hearted.
But the thread title made me do it.

And yes, Valentine's Day bites.

15. I don't really get that holiday...
I always even forget what day it actually is, because stores start advertising and selling crap for it soooooo early. I think my husband appreciates that though, as I don't want anything but to just make it through the day without vomiting at all the schmaltzig PDAs and general BS that has *nothing* to do with genuine love or affection.

I think it sucks that people who are single are looked down on and pitied for being single on the holiday; I also dislike how some people feel pressured to hook up with somebody, just so they aren't lonely on the holiday. I especially hate the materialistic aspect of Vday where a chica or dude accepts gifts from a dirty, low-down mate that supposedly "makes up for" all the stuff the mate did to them the whole rest of the year... Argh.

I think everybody's physical, mental, and emotional health would improve if we didn't have this silly holiday!

I recommend eating a meal you love, taking a nice hot bubble-bath with some nice oils, incense, and aromatherapy and then watching your fave movie or reading your fave book... but then that's what I do anytime I have a bad day! (And remember its only ONE day a year!)

:loveya: <--- not meant to invoke Valentines Traumatic Stress Disorder!

I'm doing OK at the moment...today I realized that I'm kind of in love with one of my best friends, which could create major problems, so I'm a little bummed about that, but otherwise...can't complain. :hi: How about you?

19. Order yourself a box of delicious Godiva chocolates...
and your favorite flowers sent to your house. Buy a bottle of champagne, cook yourself your favorite dinner and enjoy the company of YOU.

That's what I usually do.

I kind of know how you feel...well, not exactly, but a friend of mine was killed in action in Iraq last Valentine's Day, so I fully expect the holiday to suck even more this year (and from now on, really). :( I'd much rather go back to just being depressed because I can't get a date, lol...I guess it really is all about perspective. :shrug: :hug: :pals:

35. thanks
:hug: I hate this war, too. :( Although to be brutally honest about it, I guess I should be grateful that "only" one of my friends has been killed over there so far...I'm from a rural area where a LOT of kids join the military right after high school, and several of my friends and classmates are over there right now. :( *sigh*

Sorry, didn't mean to be a downer. I just hate this war and this jackass of a president. x(
