    I think society places too much value on being in a relationship, and that's why Valentine's Day is....painful for some. I get that having a SO/spouse can potentially be an amazing thing, but the overemphasis on it then breeds desperation to get into a relationship no matter what and negative feelings if you aren't currently in one. For every genuinely happy and healthy relationship there is at least an equal number of unhappy and even abusive ones. It's not the amount of time spent, but the quality of the time that is spent.

    Maybe it's just the bias talking since I'm aromantic, but like, goddamn, nobody is worthless just because they're not dating/married, nor is it the only road to happiness.

    I know. It's not about not dating anyone. Valentine's just puts a nail in the coffin of my loneliness. I don't seek a date right now and I'm fine but Valentine's makes me feel the world is ending and I don't want that.

    As someone who'd rather be trapped in the Matrix than face the reality, I do a lot of things to numb the pain. Mostly sleep. But the amount of romantic songs being blasted in our hostel is just kicking me.

    Yes I do like someone but I know this is not the proper time to approach her, it's just that I could be between 50 people and feel alone and this day just highlights it

    Holidays can be a place of joy but also such a decrepit catalyst for negative emotions. I can't comment on the romantic aspect, but not having my immediate family for some of these holidays or birthdays is a real punch in the face. It's perfectly valid to feel the way you do.

    At least I can say that time will move beyond and the emotions do get a bit easier to manage. Although those specific days can still feel like being dragged through mud.

    In a total shock by which I mean it was predictable to the max, it went garbage :'D

    At least it was during my vacation so I could just isolate myself from it all and disconnect from the internet, if you don't see it it doesn't exist.

    And then the family comes along and ruins everything.

    Lonely again. Done with this dick of a "roommate" who never fucking stays in the room and I genuinely don't even want to force him to stay, but I just stay in my room alone and have bad thoughts.
