A friend of mine posted this on facebook for singles today which I thought was funny:
"If you don't have a Valentine on Valentine's day, don't be sad because hey, most people don't have aids on aids day."

I've never cared for Valentine's Day, never saw much point in it to be honest. The overall concept is just silly. I have to admit though I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel at least a little bit of loneliness on this day when I was single. Still, not receiving gifts or anything never bothered me.
I did celebrate yesterday though. First Valentine's not being single, I kinda had to experience going out. It was fun, we just kept it simple and watched a movie. I felt really weird and anxious being among masses of other couples though.
