Valentine's Day Loner

Valentine's Day is the day love is celebrated. Since a young age, when this time comes around children make heart-shaped Valentine's Day cards and give one to each student and they get to eat as many heart-shaped candy and chocolates as they want. My personal favorites are the mints with the messages on the them (ex: Will you be mine?). I read 'em, then I eat 'em. It's also a time when you get calls from ex-boyfriend/girlfriend or a secret crush. It's a weird time. Not everyone's hor Anyway, as we grow older, the meaning of this day changes. Some people, simply don't give a shit or some go all out with the candy, dozen roses and vacations. My focus is on the ones that will be alone. There are reasons for these people to not have anyone to be with this Valentine's day weekend. Below are reasons why you may be alone this weekend (and possibly won't get laid):

YOU'RE CHEAP: You simply don't want to spend on gifts or a date even though you have the money. You also might think that doing all of it is worth it and won't guarantee any action. it's sad but there are people who do think like this. There are people who won't talk to a person they are attracted to to avoid being asked to be someone's Valentine.

IT'S A RECESSION: This affects a lot of people. There just isn't enough money in the bank to do anything. Let's face it, times are rough. Money has to be stashed for bigger than or just to get by. This is where you must get creative or you're doomed. Even if you do get a card or ONE rose, it's the thought that counts. You can always go back to construction paper and markers and make that special heart-shaped V-Day :-D.

JUST HAD A BAD BREAK UP: This is a serious one. You're probably used to having a Valentine but that Valentine broke your heart. It sucks and it's something to adapt to while you think everyone else is with their boo and you are home eating Haagan Daz ice cream watching "The Notebook." You're not alone. Others are going through the same thing. Keep yourself occupied and you'll be okay!

"IT'S OVER RATED": These are the people that don't really know what love is. They don't believe in the almighty L-O-V-E. However, they can also be CHEAP and use this as a cop. Who knows? You have to be loved to show love. So people please show these non-lovers some love. They need it the most.

CLUB GOER/PARTYER: Ah the party people that rather party than be in a relationship. These are the people that die alone. They turn out to be that lonely aunt and uncle with the very dark apartment and a possible STD (LOL). Funny thing is most of these people wonder why they are alone and drink they're emotions away. If you look in the mirror right before you go out, talk a good look at yourself and you'll see why.

NBA ALL-STAR WEEKEND: This is for basketball/sports fiends. Somehow All-Star Weekend is always on the weekend of or after Valentine's Day. A lot of dudes must suffer for this. They are soldier. They are in the frontlines taking one for the team. If you have a Valentine for this weekend, tough break, there's always the DVR.
