Don't worry, I suffered from it to (and as it turns out, it's not so bad after all!).
I don't know about you but I never thought much of this particular day until this year. It was of no importance to me - being independent and all. It wasn't until I woke up this morning that I truly felt lost. My friends were 'loved-up' and had plans and I had nothing but a pile of Uni notes staring at me as if to say "We both know what you'll be doing tonight.". So it was no surprise to my them (my friends, I mean - not the notes) when I rocked up to Uni all sad and depressed and feeling sorry for myself more than ever before.
But then something happened.
I realised that even I can only take so much self pity.
That there does come a point where you say enough is enough.
For me, it took my friend to look me in the face and say "It's just another ordinary day" and she was right. Today is Febuary 14th.
So if you're single and don't want to mingle mid-week, put the icecream back in the freezer (I did), wipe the mascara tears off your pretty face (I didn't cry!), turn off your 'Songs For Lonely Valentines' playlist on Spotify and take a moment to reflect on what you have that others may not.
Do a little self-evaluation of all the great things you have going for you! Do whatever makes you happy.
Whatever it is just remember - today was just another day and you got through it (as you will tomorrow... And the next day... And the day after that too!).
And who knows, this may be the last time you ever suffer from "Valentine-less-itis" and I wish you all the best!
