Angst.

Things keep reminding it's Valentine's day in a couple of days.  That just makes me feel depressed. 

Think I'll need some anti-valentines day celebration come Thursday.

Tell me about it everything must be in couples or else! lol there should be a singles day to compensate

I thought the whole point of St Valentine's day was for single people to admit who they loved? I am sure it isn't for couples...*wanders off to wiki*...

The name is misleading. 'Make single people feel like crap Day' is far more appropriate. Not-a-V-Day-Party? Sounds good to me. The idea calls for action-laden movies, silly games, and spicy food to counteract the pink fluffy sweetness.

Not like I don't enjoy being hideously soppy, given the occasion. But I'm still bitter about Valentine's, and I don't think that'll ever change. :p

Valentine's Day smells. If you're single, it makes you feel miserable about being single, if you're in a couple, it makes you feel miserable about not being able to live up to the romantic hype (see also why New Years is always a let down). In it's current incarnation it's just another way for the retail industry to make us feel inadequate and try and medicate it with consumerism.

I second nayela's suggestion, or at least getting all your single friends together and going out for dinner, to celebrate that you can actually have fun and don't have to behave all the time.

Urgh, I've never celebrated V-Day in my life. When I'm single, I reallllly don't feel the need to; and when I'm not, I'd rather my significant other would buy me a nice surprise present some time than just because they 'had' to.

This year, I'm thinking maybe a restaurant with some friends, and a nice BBC period drama. *veg*
