Quiet you two This thread is about love - not hatred for Valentine's day.

only you mentioned hatred, I just talked of distraction

And avoidance.

Hey.. Well, so much for this thread. I'm trying to keep my spirits up. This is always been the most depressing part of the year for me.

That's what the movie marathon is for. Movies keep my sprits up, trust me I understand. In my ectended group of friends I'm like the lone single person. So, it is a big slap in the face for me seeing all my friends with people they love and I'm left on the extras pile. It is about the distractions and knowing how to keep your personal mood high.

Personally, I prefer to celebrate Hate Week or the Lupercalia.

 

[Michael Morris]

I give up. Topic changed.

I used to hate, loathe, and despise Valentine's day. Even after I had my sweetie and even after we were married, I refused to celebrate the day. I bought her a gift on Groundhog's Day and ignored The Day. Took me 6 years of marriage before the pain and suffering had subsided enough for me to get her a gift for the day.

So I don't blame single people for hating it one bit.

Hmm... something in the original spirit of the thread... my sweetie has a DAMN mean left hook. Which makes sense since she's left-handed.

Doesn't mean a thing for me. It's only for the candy that makes it worthwhile.

Ahh, so that explains the post count (sorry, no offense, I'm just kidding )

Seriously, though, dating sites has done wonders for me...
American dating sites, that is, not much luck on the Danish one I've been on for... oh, 5 years now I think.
But I've visited two women in the US so far (one even paid for the plane ticket!)... I mean, if they're so willing that even I can get a date on there, anyone should be able to

I love Valentine's Day, but then I'm of the mind that my Woman and I don't get to spend enough time together (despite spending a lot of time together).

Any old excuse
