Valentine's Day and why it SUCKS!
Valentines Day. Single girls and women cringe at the thought of it. A whole day devoted to "love" (it doesn't exist just so you know.. sorry to crush your dreams). People will say to keep themselves from bursting into tears on this god- awful day that "it's a day to be with the people you love" (who REALLY wants to spend valentine's day with your parents or your brother or your cousin..? And if they have a "significant other" you're stuck third wheeling it!! (AGAIN) People (mothers) will tell us about valentine's day that "It's a celebration of love" or "I'm ok being single I'm a strong, confident, independent woman. I don't need a man" (that last one was the best one). These sayings or mantras are just sad little glimpses of hope for single women to feel good about being single AGAIN for valentine's day (that's me). No matter what we say we all want someone to be with on valentine's day (No matter how much we hate it and we wish we could just be happy being single). Valentine's day is also just an excuse for all us lonely girls to get some ice cream, our friends, some tissues and a romantic movie that we can all wish that was our life while laughing at the pure cheesiness of it all... Valentine's day can suck for "taken" people too (I know we all thought it was impossible) but it's true! When your with someone you feel obligated t give them some sort of gift. (whether it be flowers, chocolates or something more well.. *intimate* hehe) they may feel obligated or stressed to find the "perfect" gift for their significant other (which is virtually IMPOSSIBLE by the way, just get them a gift card and be done with it.)
