Valentine's Day

So, as we all know, Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Well, actually, it is only a week from today. But, still…

Valentine’s Day is for couples: husbands and wives (or your significant other) and those in a relationship (boyfriend and girlfriend, fiancé and fiancée, or your significant other). Well, those that are married actually have two holidays: Valentine’s Day and they anniversary. But that is another topic for another day.

But what about us single people? I think that we should get a holiday of our own. They should call it “Single’s Day.” That way us single people are not left out of the loop.

Those that are in a relationship for Valentine’s Day get chocolates, stuffed animals, and other goodies.

What about us?

On “Single’s Day,” we should get chocolates, stuffed animals, and other goodies from our family and friends. Once again, we will not be left out of the loop.

I hate Valentine’s Day. Why? Because of something that happened to me when I was a teenager. Long story. But, here I am, a soon-to-be twenty-one year old woman, typing on my laptop. On top of what happened, by the time my mom, and my dad, and my sister (who just turned nineteen just for you to get the point) turned twenty-one, they had already been in relationships. I am twenty-one years old. And I have never, and I mean never had a boyfriend. Yes, it is depressing.

The only things that I have received on Valentine’s Day, from my mother if you were wondering, was a mug, chocolates, pencils, and a small stuffed animal. That was all.

What is so great about Valentine’s Day? When I see decorations, it makes me want to cry or tear down them down and stomp all over them. I swear, the nation does not have any or put us single people into consideration.

Sigh. My twenty-first Valentine’s Day, single, lonely, depressing…

I think that my mom is going to be doing the same thing this year: Getting all of us something. Too bad this Valentine’s Day is not going to be any different from all of the rest that I have had.

If I could have a wish for Valentine’s Day, I would absolutely wish for a boyfriend. A boyfriend that would not mentally (emotionally) hurt me and would end up becoming my husband when I graduate from college.

Oh, did I forget to mention that I am in my second year of college? Yes, I did. I am in my second year of college! So, it is depressing not having had a boyfriend when I was in high school. My parents and sister had a relationship before they even graduated from high school.

Valentine’s Day sucks!!
