Stupidest Day of the year.
Im Not being grumpy before anyone says anything lol!.
Okay why is it the most stupidest day of the year?, Its valentines day and ive lost count of how many valentines days i haven't got a card or a rose or so much as an ecard at least to say happy v-day!...It really gets me down how im single and this is suppost to be the romanticest time of the year?..For who though? Because its certainly not romantic for the people who aren't in loving relationships its more like a bitter reminder of how alone you really are 
Everyone gets a flower....Everyone but me...I should really stop complaining but i can't, no ones invited me on a date!, or even shown me the littlest bit of interest...I just feel so ugly and alone it sucks!
If it was up to me there'd be no such thing as valentines day!!...Damn the person who invented it lol!
Well ive done ranting on about my none existant love life.
Much love & Happy V-day

It might make you feel better to know that Valentine Day is something retailers thrive on to generate more business. Don't feel bad if you are not the recipient of any of it, because it is basically meaningless, just something obligatory for the most part and corporations love that aspect of it.
Hang in there, you are so young, there will be plenty of V-days to come when you will be happy and look back at this and laugh!

Valentine Day seems crap just like Christmas and Easter
All these days want people to spend vast amounts of money
to buy people gifts on THOSE days ONLY . No thanks .
When I do have a partner to share love with I would
rather surpise them with a present or a flower
every now and then at my choosing which really does
suprise the person instead of being forced to do it
on a certain day .
Christmas seems to be amount spending vast amounts
of money for people that you never see the rest of the
year and traveling to some place that you only spend
a day or two at ..
Christmas and Valentine Day is canceled due to lack of
interest !

Hmmmm...
Being alone on Valentine's day (or any day for that matter!) really sucks.
BUT! (And I speak from the wisdom of age), YOU, my dear, are young and pretty and have your entire life ahead of you. It took me almost 46 years to find the love of my life (met her right here on CS) and I've had more lonely Valentine's days than you've had birthdays.
I said that in order to say this: I know it's tough, but rather than dwell upon all the Valentine's cards you didn't get this year, maybe it'd help to think about the ones you've gotten in the past... and the thousands more you'll receive in the future!
Luck and light to you!

I agree with brunetteteen18. (and the young comment).
There is something wrong with the society/holiday/expectations.
I'll elaborate. "Coupled" men complain that they have expectations to contribute to the relationship in a special way on Feb 14th.
single people (men and women) are reminded they are alone or lonely. This is frustrating especially when they (the alone) don't/cant live up to their own hopes and desires.
So who likes V'day? Few people. Really.
So I propose that that you start off by not cursing Saint Valentine anymore (he didn't do anything to harm you) and celebrate the religious holiday as it was originally intended. (not as Hallmark wants you to).
As for the 'young thing,' you are really so on. as well. 18 is too young to be worried about being alone. Most don't even know who they are at that age; but, unless you remember how small and confuising being 18 was, those are just words. Simply put, If you are 18, you haven't even had time to get your own life, job, finances, togeter yet. Read the book SINGLE by Judy Ford.
