It’s a made up holiday.

I had a great day working remotely and hanging out with my dog. Watched a movie. Went outside. Cooked a good meal. It’s a Tuesday, there’s no way I’d rather be doing anything else.

When I was single I’d go to all the singles parties with other singles they’re actually pretty fun

Mate you'll come out fine. I'd say instead of sulking at home, find a few other single friends and go out and have a good time!

My first Valentine’s Day as a widow. I had the day off, so I slept until 10:30 then went to a movie.

How about Thanksgiving and Christmas?

It could be worse. You could be Will Smith.

No, what are ya talking about? You are literally saving 100s of dollars. You don't have to go out making reservations and stuff, getting expensive ass gifts. Plus, if you get a box of chocolates, it's all yours baby! Saving both your wallet and your stress levels

After work I bought a box of chocolates for my mom dropped it off to her place then went home lol

Being single every day sucks 😭

Im so sorry to hear that. Stay strong :)

You're right but honestly people hype it up so much.

I like that. Treating it like any normal day.

I'm fine with spending money on my partner. Even if its not Valentine's day you'll have to do that with your partner.

Lol. Took me a while to understand this reference.

Lol. It does. I never minded it but on Valentines day i just hate it.

Same here, not necessarily a widow cause we were only dating, but still. I spent time with family and it was nice.

🤍

You don’t need a day to prove your love to someone, it’s usually overhyped. Just because you see these lovey dovey couples in this one day, you don’t know what their other 364 days look like

That would be a deal breaker for me.

Nah, it’s okay.

Sorry for your loss
