Who here's boycotting Valentine's Day???

(Rant coming)

I am. I fucking HATE IT. Last year, I had the one chance in my life to truly celebrate it with a girl whom I thought was going to continue a very special relationship with me, only to see her dump me the Monday afterwards.

Valentine's Day is nothing but a marketing ploy created by the greeting card companies in cahoots with happily married and soon-to-be-married couples who feel they need to piss off the rest of the single people in the world who are either too shy to seriously commit to a relationship in constant fear of rejection (like me), or who choose on their own fruition to not be in a relationship.

What fun is Valentine's Day when you're all alone??? Well, I say boycott it if you feel no need to celebrate it if the weight of the relationship world has crashed onto your shoulders.

It doesn't matter if you're straight or gay. If you're single and shy or just choose not to be in a relationship, what purpose does that holiday serve??? NOTHING, that's what. I fucking HATE Valentine's Day. It reminds me of the worst day in my life. I don't think I could ever celebrate that god-forsaken holiday. I'm just going to wind up bitter and alone.

I'm sorry I had to rant, it's just that this time of year really pisses the fucking hell out of me.
