The Singles Awareness Day (Feb. 14th) 2009 Thread!!!

[Becks]

(Thanks Becks!)

Anytime, Lizziebeff.

I just had a thought.

By this Valentine's Day, what with the latest goings on in my life, it is very possible that I could be somewhat involved with more than one woman, slightly possible that it could be as many as 4 (okay, that is probably wishful thinking, but not completely impossible).

Thank GOODNESS I'll be working all day that day at The Bar! (And my managers better not let me down on the scheduling end of that!)

[Bella_Vixen]

And of course Social Distortion's "Ball and Chain!" Listening to it now......

I LOVE that song.

(Thanks Becks!)

[Jester]

But it was one of the songs my friend played on her college 80s music radio show.

Had my show BEEN an 80's show, I could have very well done that. But it was the Sunday Hangover Special, and had no special format other than the station's normal alternative format and my own screwy brand of commentary and stunts. (As far as I know, I was the first DJ in the state of Arizona to bungee jump on the air.)

I do believe, however, that one of our selections was Transvision Vamp's classic "Down on My Knees Again."

And of course Social Distortion's "Ball and Chain!" Listening to it now......

Well it's been ten years, and a thousand tears
And look at the mess I'm in-
A broken nose and a broken heart,
An empty bottle of gin
Well I sit and I pray
In my broken down Chevrolet-
While I'm singin' to myself
There's got to be another way

Take away, take away
Take away this ball and chain
I'm lonely and I'm tired
And I can't take any more pain
Take away, take away
Never to return again
Take away, take away
Take away this ball and chain

I am to assume "Love Stinks" was among them?

And this is why we don't assume, kids!

No, that was not one of the songs. It would have been, but the format was alternative music, so that was not one of my options. But yeah, we had some doozies.

But it was one of the songs my friend played on her college 80s music radio show. If the Vault fell on Valentines Day, we did a similar theme night, and Love Stinks was always on the playlist.

[SorryIsGoodEnough]

I love Valentine's Day. I have ever since I was 16 and my 20 year old boyfriend took me out and gave me the best Valentine's Day ever.

That said....

I'm 21 and single. I really had hoped to have someone this year, as I haven't had anyone on Valentine's Day since that one guy, but....

*sigh*

[Nyoibo]

But I have to say with so many single guys on here, one of you needs to call me. I sooo sick of my lack of sex life, its torture.

Now if I had have know that while I was in Ohio a while back.

[JoitheArtist]

Heh. This page always cheers me up immensely around Valentine's Day:

[crazylegs]

Bah, this valentines day/night I'll be looking after students at the local University who, by the end of the night, will have drunk far too much and will invariably pass out in the most awkward of places.

So for me this St. Valentines day will be all about the unpleasant bodily fluids!

[Slytovhand]

I'm in a committed (heh) relationship, and I *despise* Valentine's Day.

I don't get anything.

*Hands cookies


Guy, I can only speak for myself (well, no, I can choose to speak for everyone else, not sure they'd want me to, though ), but I've emotionally detached myself from people. I'm a loner. I moved 1000 miles to a city I've never been in before, and basically have no real friends here. And, to be honest, I don't really miss the ones 'back home'. So, relationship??? Meh.... I'm quite comfortable in my own space, and this 'intimacy' thing doesn't really mean much to me at all..... (course, be nice to have ppl buy me things )

"I have a microphone, and you don't. SO YOU WILL LISTEN TO EVERY DAMN WORD I HAVE TO SAY."

"Wedding Singer," right? Having DJ'd weddings for four years as well as having DJ'd at a couple of bars, I very much know that particular sentiment!

Even so, if *one* more relative remind me that I don't have anyone...I'm going to hit them.

I'll loan you my Louisville Slugger.

You are in Ohio. I don't do cold. Get down to the Keys, and we'll talk.

Hell, what's one more in my suddenly expanding harem?

After reading this thread, I noticed something. It's something I noticed the first time I joined CS several years ago. This message board has quite a bit of people who claim to be single and want nothing to do with a relationship. I wonder if very many of these people really feel this way, or if they are just saying "F*ck relationships, don't want one" in efforts to ward off their lonliness. I'm not suggesting that to be vindictive or passive aggressive. I'm just saying that because I've actually done this very thing before.

Well, guy, first I've got to say I cracked up when I read your name.

And, moving back on to the subject at hand...speaking for myself, I've yet to see any relationship among my friends end in any way other than catastrophe. My own relationship lasted for a mere two months, and while I do miss the physical and emotional intimacy...quite honestly, I really feel I'm better off single. I may very well mature and be ready to share my life with someone in the future, but I'm going to declare "fuck relationships, don't want to be in one" loud and long until that time.

[protege]

Protege, aren't you sounding a little hypocritical there. First you say "Fuck Valentine's Day", and then you go onto say that you'll spend precious 'quality' time with your true love...(your MG).... go on - admit it... isn't that the real love of your life??

Well, what can I say...other than the car understands me. But, there are just some things you can't do in a sports car...and I'll leave that up to one's imagination

Guywithashovel, I hear you on that one. It's not that I'm saying "screw relationships," but I've simply grown tired of wasting my time. I gave up, in other words.
