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

[Jack T. Chance]

Love the topic. I will not be part of the V-day club but and content with my singlehood.

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.

Ya know, I hadn't decided to go there yet, but needless to say... *In best Bill Clinton voice* "I feel your pain."

Of course, it might help if you gave people a wee bit more info about yourself, such as your age and location!

37, Ohio.

Back in 1995 I met my ex-husband online (egads AOL) on V-Day, around 3am in a Stars Wars chat room. Both of us were not looking for someone, just bored and online. So that day doesnt really have a special place in my heart, him being my Ex-husband.

But in past relationships I sadly would get all giggity if I got flowers though, its in my genes, I cant help it I swear.

The only good thing about Valentine's day is the chocolate covered cherries

Even though I'm perpetually single, and sometimes get down over that fact, Valentine's Day really doesn't bother me all that much. In fact, anymore now, I honestly don't notice it.

Well, actually, saying that I'm perpetually single isn't exactly accurate. I have had a few dates, and one thing that would have turned into a relationship had she not had to move just when we were getting started (job offer). But I've had nothing long term, so I guess I'm not too far off from being perpetually single.

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.

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.

[Becks]

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

I don't get anything.

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.

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.

"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?

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 )

[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!

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

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

[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*

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.
