I understand where you're coming from Dante. I really do. But try looking at it as a day to celebrate being single.....to use it as a reason to go and talk to a girl or randomly snog someone or send someone you've been liking for a while a silly card or something. it's less embarrassing than at any other time and carries less risk....and you never know what might come of it.
If anything, I think valentines was made for singles...not for couples. Switch your thinking around and you won't feel 'worthless and not good enough'. cause although I understand where you're coming from, that's not a happy, or a healthy way to view it![]()
And I strongly detest the money making aspects of the day as well. But we're stuck with it...so you may as well have a bit of fun with it.

I've never been the kind of person in any way, shape or form to do anything like this... it's not just me. If I could just go up to someone and start randomly talking about nothing in particular, then I'm pretty sure that I would be doing so by now.
And celebrate being single? Yeah, fair enough, you don't have all of the "strings attached", but how is that better? It's nice to be able to be sitting around and realise that you've got commitments due to someone that cares about you...
I've kept all this quiet for however long now, and I'm just fed up. Thanks yet again Valentine's Day.

Yer, as much as you say you aren't looking for someone, you've always got your eyes open and scanning...
It's all about the companionship IMHO. Fair enough, people can have relationships that might be pretty heavily based on sex, and how good each other can make the other feel... But for me, it's about the comfortable friend. Having someone that you can wake up with, look at, smile, and go back to sleep. Someone you can sit around with and just be content. Someone that you can call your best friend.
And while you are single, it's somewhat hard to have that.
