I will probably spend all of valentines panicking about starting my new job the next day tbh.

Meganium February 2nd, 2016 9:39 AM

This is the first Valentines Day that I'll be able to celebrate.

Wait, why am I here? I should be in that "other" club.

But anyways...it feels really weird not being single anymore since I was so used to treating Valentines Day as a simple, regular day. Keep your head up, single peeps. That special someone is just right around the corner. I'm not saying "eventually", you'll never know when that'll happen. The key word is patience. :)

Also, I learned that Valentines Day doesn't HAVE to be celebrated with just your S.O. In Mexico we celebrate it like "friendship day". So, you can also appreciate your friends on Valentines Day. :)

if the cards fall like I'm pretty sure they will, I'll be with the girl I'm into that night, but not because of valentine's day -- just because we have a Ritual to hang out every sunday night. so idk if something's gonna happen. only time will tell. I have my doubts. but anything's possible. we'll see. We'll See.

the slowpoke one is probably my fave, and also the floette one :)

the florges and bulbasaur one is just... cr33py :(

I think Valentine's Day is cute, but I don't care enough about it to go crazy with plans. Such a romantic, I know :P The past 2 years, my boyfriend and I have gone to our favorite used bookstores and bought each other a few books since they're so cheap! We plan on upholding the tradition this year too :)

Somewhere_ February 2nd, 2016 5:19 PM

I will definitely be single during Valentine's day. I would never even send a card, and even less likely to receive one.

Arsenic February 2nd, 2016 5:40 PM

Hurray for us single people! Yaaaay......

Psychic February 2nd, 2016 10:22 PM

I am planning on still being with my partner of 3 years for Valentine's Day lol, but as for what we'll be doing I don't really know. Last year I made a Game Grumps-themed card and we went to a bakery that sold cute Valentine's cookies and cupcakes. We'll probably just go out on a date (on a day other than the 14th), keep it low-key.

If you're into this person, then instead of waiting for "something to happen," make a move! Just say "hey, I like you a lot, I see you as more than a friend and it would be cool to take our relationship to the next level." If she isn't into it, then just say "cool, I just thought I'd put it out there" and the awkwardness will go away eventually.

Well if I saw this a couple days ago, I would've said there was a 60-40 chance i would've been with someone as it was on the perfect trajectory. Then life saw things were going well and decided to intervene and cut off any chance of that happening with one fell swoop.

So I'll be single but that's nothing new, so i'll be fine. Plus i get to play basketball that night, so it all works out! *gestures obscenely towards life*

Bellsprout February 3rd, 2016 11:08 AM

nah i've been really trying to work on myself right now. but i do hope one day i could share valentines day with someone :)

Pinkie-Dawn February 3rd, 2016 11:09 AM

Valentine's Day serves a crushing reminder of how long I will be forever alone due to my own social awkwardness and my focus on college work.

she knows I'm into her, and has for a couple weeks, which is why literally only time will tell if she's actually going to, like, reciprocate. it's kind of a weird situation so that might sound a bit off, and she wants me to be open about what I'm feeling / thinking / &c, and she does not shy away from the more flirtatious aspects of things. but she says she's still trying to figure out what she's feeling, which is kind of terrifying to me but I'm also feeling relatively hopeful about the whole thing. so, yeah. idk. moral of the story: I have told her how I feel. she's workin' it out.

Limey-chan February 3rd, 2016 2:59 PM

I will 100% be single on Valentine's Day, and you know what? I'm fine with that. I never understood why people need to be given a specific day to show their love and affection for their partners/significant others.

There's nobody else I currently have my sights set on either, sadly.

blue February 5th, 2016 12:35 PM

I'm don't have college or work on that day, so I'll be doing nothing unless in the next week or so I manage to find someone to spend it with.. lmao.

天 (Caine) February 5th, 2016 2:19 PM

This will be my first Valentine's Day as a single man in four years. I just got out of a very toxic relationship so I'm staying single for a while. I'm honestly kind of relieved though, I don't have the pressure of making it the "super best Love Day EVER". As for my plans, I don't have any and that's another relief. It'll just be a day for me, and that's a damn good thing.

Treecko February 5th, 2016 2:57 PM

For the 24th year in a row I will be single on Valentine's Day. I don't really mind though cause I just like to pig out on the discounted candy in the 15th anyways.

mikey February 5th, 2016 3:38 PM

Not big on Valentines Day. Even when I wasn't single for some of the past ones, it was never really something we cared much about, so I don't mind being single for this one and probably future ones.

dad February 5th, 2016 4:14 PM

i'll most def be working on v-day but tbh i'm cool with it. i'm not really into being overly affectionate and mushy, i'd rather just grab some chipotle and hang.

Sephear February 5th, 2016 4:52 PM

I'm gonna be the life of the party on Valentine's JUST YOU WAIT. Look, look at the illustration of just how happy and proud and successful and not lonely I am: http://i.imgur.com/0OY2wDY.jpg?1

Don't pretend. If you're feeling alone on that particular day, your friends are just a li'l call away <3

Sydian February 5th, 2016 8:02 PM

tbh i just want to go to waffle house on valley day

curiousnathan February 6th, 2016 6:01 PM

0 dates for me...and that's fine. I don't need someone. I'd like someone to hang with on a more-than-friends basis, but it's not a necessity.


*quietly cries*

Sun February 6th, 2016 6:26 PM

Single. I highly doubt somethings happening on that day, I shouldn't remain hopeful but I can't help it... Ugh...

Dusk February 6th, 2016 6:44 PM

Valentine's Day I never really cared for. At least, once we got beyond junior high and it was no longer just about receiving candy from everyone. {XD}
Other than that, it was just situations guys tried to ask me out on dates, or when I was younger I actually did go out with a few... even though I didn't truly like them back in the same way. I have a feeling this year, a co-worker may try to ask me out on a date. Kiddo, you have got the wrong idea about me, and on that day I am just gonna go home after work and game or something, as I usually do.

Do I have my eye on anyone? Haha, no... Who would even be compatible? Where the heck are the other local gay girls around my age with somewhat similar interests...
