Im not sure what to think as ive never been in love or had friends, im only 20 and this it somewhat uncommon i think?

Ive been lonely my whole life and valetimes day is just another cruel reminder.

What do you think of this holiday?

I also see it as a cruel reminder of my ineptitude with women, and I write this as somebody who lost their virginity on Valentines Day last year.

That being said, my hatred for the holiday has diminished over the years. You don't really need a special holiday to justify going on a spontaneous date or showering your SO with sexy lingerie.

I’m fine with it as a whole, but what grinds my gears about it is how everybody has to ask “who’s your valentine?” every year, as though they’re forced to at gunpoint.

Sure, when I eventually get into a relationship, I’ll celebrate Valentine’s Day because it’s actually a really nice premise (apart from the consumerism of course), but currently, I really don’t care to celebrate it, I’m just starting uni currently and id rather focus on that lol.

I saw a ton of people getting pulled over on the highway (because for some reason holidays where I live seem to require more speed traps) and I went "oh yeah that's today". Which was basically all the thought I gave it lol.

Also for the love of god it's Valentine's Day
