Ugh I hate being single on Valenitnes Day. Yes I know people say you always got your friends If you don't have a date. But it still sucks. It kinda makes you feel worthless and unloved. Don't get me wrong family & friends are the best but it's the one day where you get to experience a diff. kind of love, by your lover! I'm not bragging saying I'm drop dead gorgeous , but I'm not ugly, or under weight, or over weight, and I know I have a great personality. What's wrong??

Don't get down on yourself. I am also a single woman (by choice) and I think Valentine's Day is stupid. I mean you still have to go to work that day. It is not like Christmas or Thanksgiving when you at least get the day off. And so what, you miss out on getting a teddy bear, chocolates, and roses that will soon die. I don't mean to sound negative, but It may just be a money maker for retail stores to increase sales during the slow time after Christmas. I know all of this is easier to say and I realize that it is hard to see happy couples all around you with all of their hot plans. But, February 15 will soon be here and everything will go back to normal. As someone else said, you will meet someone when the time is right. I know it is not the same, but treat yourself on Valentine's Day...buy yourself a box of chocolates or some pretty flowers. Or if you can, treat yourself to a day at the spa, hair salon, or go out with your single friends.

It's probably not you as a person. I am a big believer in there being a time for everything. If you don't have someone right now, maybe you aren't meant to and they will come along when it's time. In the meantime, start living your life for you and do some things that you won't have time to do if you were in a relationship like starting a new hobby or taking a vacation or joining a book club or something. That's what I did, there is this website called meetup.com which is divided up by interests and cities. It is totally free and they have all these different clubs and activities you can go to for free and meet new people and have stuff to do. Like they have singles clubs, so I bet they have something organized for Valentine's Day.
Or, if you really want someone now, then make it a top priority and get out there. Sign up for a dating service online, it works...most of the time. There is still plenty of time to find a date for V-Day if you want one.
Just get out there!

I agree. Don't beat yourself up over not having a sweetie during Valentine's Day. If you are looking for love, stop looking. I know it sounds strange, but the harder you work to find a lover, the more dissappointed you will be. Give yourself some "me" time. Spend your energy improving your life and live it. Love will come in time and it will truly be out of the blue and quite unexpected. I found a wife just when I had decided to stop trying so hard and just live life and enjoy it.

Valentine's Day is so over rated.You are not worthless or unloved.Enjoy your family and also your friends.There are people out there right now that don't have a family or friends to love.Think about it,you're better off than you think. Don't take little things for granted,before you know it they're gone.Take care.

What I always did to change the holiday around for me when I was single was declare myself a walking Valentine. I dressed in red or pink, and bought a couple dozen roses and gave them to my friends - especially friends who were also single. I kept one for myself. The thing is, I love romance, and I would not miss the chance to celebrate it even if I didn't have a partner just then. Sometimes my friends and I could go to bars with our roses and drink champagne or pink drinks and daydream aloud about romance.
So eat chocolate, drink champagne, and celebrate your romantic spirit in spite of being between partners.

Nothing is wrong, you just haven't found the right person yet... and until you do, wish all your single friends a Happy Singles' Awareness Day!

As for feeling lonely or unloved(forsaken), consider it's what's in the midst of seven last utterances: why hast thou "forsaken" me?
