Celebrating Singles

Celebrating Singles  Ahhh..another year of singledom. Each year, around this time, a lot of uncoupled people look upon Valentine’s Day or Singles Awareness Day as it's been so lovingly dubbed with dread. I used to be one of them. Not long ago, I reviled Valentine's day as a painful holiday dedicated to commercialism and to couples showing affection and making us singles feel terrible. But then I realized something- Valentines Day isn’t about couples, it’s about love and love comes in many different forms. I've spent past Singles Awareness Days hanging out with friends. My good friend Julie and I made a tradition of going out to dinner on Valentines Day. We are usually surrounded by "happy" couples dressed up for their romantic dates. We make it a point to dress casually—we are perfectly fine with it. There is never any pressure on us to make this day perfect let alone romantic; we just enjoying hanging out, drinking wine and laughing. Last year I sent a few of my single friends funny text messages on Valentine's Day telling them how much I appreciate their friendship. This year I will probably do the same. That's the great thing about Singles Awareness Day, you get to have multiple Valentines. You don’t have to make the day about a romantic other and there is no pressure to spend money on the perfect gift. Instead, you get to spend the day showing your friends how much you care about and appreciate them. Another thing about Valentine's Day is it makes you realize how not having a significant other in your life doesn’t mean you aren’t loved. And it doesn’t mean you are alone. In fact, tomorrow I will be celebrating friendship including those of you who are reading this blog. Happy Singles Awareness Day. Stay sexy my single friends! |

I remember in grade school giving Valentines to everyone in the class. When/why did that have to change? I like your idea.

I'll be single this Valentine's Day. It would be nice to be with someone but I don't let it bother me. I'm getting to old in the tooth to worry about it.

There are two ways to look at life, celebrate and enjoy the good things...or bring yourself down by looking at the negative things.... You live a lot longer when you enjoy life.....  Click Here To Read A Hot Erotic Story: When A Woman Meets A Stranger Part 1 of 4

I really like your post! It's a great idea to spend the day with friends and not have any pressure to try to make it the perfect day...along with trying to find the perfect gift for your SO. I've never really thought that much of Valentine's Day. If couples have to have a highly commercialized day to express their love for each other then something is wrong. Every day is a good day to tell someone how much you love them and what they mean to you. Since tomorrow will be more than a little crazy with all the couples out for their celebrations, I treated myself to a nice dinner today. It was great! Enjoy your day tomorrow!  Pagan  Hmmmm....I know I left that wand around here somewhere!

I Love all the holidays and Valentines day also!!! If single or not, always share in the holiday, text to friends to say hello, flowers for mom, something special for kids. Like a lot of things it is what you put into it, helps with what you get out of it and a positive attitude always helps too. Happy Valentines day, embrace the moments for they are gone with a wink of the eye
