Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and I honestly think it is a bigger deal for single people than for couples. Sure, I’ve had Valentine’s Days in the past where I am in a couple, and it’s been a nice night, but when you are single there is so much more pressure and anticipation. 
Take for example, CRAB. She has been dating a guy for a couple of weeks and is now waiting to find out if they are going to spend v-day together. Normally the two of them would hang out on a Saturday night, but because this Saturday happens to be v-day, it adds pressure to a new situation. He hasn’t mentioned anything about the day, and in typical girl fashion, she isn’t going to suggest that they spend the holiday together.
I, on the other hand, really like a guy that I would like to just hang out with on Saturday night, but will not even mention it to him for fear that he will think I want him to be my boyfriend. Meanwhile, I just want to hang out, and maybe do some smooching. 
So, this year, I am referring to the dreaded Valentine’s Day as Single Awareness Day. I am going to go out and celebrate being single…much like I do every other Saturday by dancing and drinking with my good girl friends and hoping that there are cute boys out and about, also celebrating being single. Who needs one day when we have 52 weekends a year to celebrate our fabulousness?
Is it just me or does everybody claim to dislike the Hallmark Holiday created on February 14? At least, a lot more than I noticed before. And by before I mean in the last few years. Will we finally manage to get rid of this horrible, excluding “holiday” in the next few years?
Fantastic! So what happened to your friend?
Unfortunately for CRAB the boy completely fell off the face of the earth. We are waiting to see what happens now that v-day has come and gone, maybe he will re-appear?
a red flag is a red flag. Especially on Valentines Day.
and he did fall of the face of the earth. This is why the crab is taking a long dating hiatus.
