    I refer to myself as "terminally single." I wish it weren't pushed on people that you need to have a partner to be happy. If I meet the right person, great. If not, oh well. Friends and family are great, and you get to do what you want (almost) all the time!

    I'm not single. I'm married but my husband has plans with his friends... because wow honestly he didn't notice the date when he made them... so in a sense I'm single. I may go to a bar and be cute, have a fun night out :)

    I am but I'm crushing really hard on this guy and one of my other friends says that he seems interested in me...
    I just hope he doesn't have a girlfriend.

    Nope not cursed but blessed. Blessed to have a guy friend that I enjoy spending time with. We spend time at each other's homes and take vacations together then go home to our own place. He is very good to me. (I guess the term is f**k buddies?) I am almost 70 and he is 65yrs old, so we are kinda past the age where we are looking to date.

    Love this outlook.👍 No need for extra pressure if you are struggling.

    #16

    Yep, mostly cause I'm trans and gay. Even if I knew any other gay guys, I'd doubt they'd date a trans person. Unfortunately this does not stop me from having crushes on the straight guys

    I am single. And I’m good with that. I have been married and divorced. At this point, I would rather be alone than have to deal with someone else’s issues. I am often alone, but never really feel lonely. I have a great family and wonderful friends, and a magnificent support system. I don’t need a partner to make me happy. It’s not the partner who makes you happy, it’s your satisfaction with your own life! And frankly, my divorce was due to some very bad things that I did not know for 9 years with my husband. Nine years! You can never REALLY know someone, and frankly, I can’t go through that again. I have my kids and my happiness. :)

    This is the goal right here - being happy and content with your own life and creating your own happiness. I'm sorry for what you went through, but good on you for rising from the ash stronger and better than ever!

    I am single, no date for Valentine's Day. It's been 11 years since my last relationship ended, 11 years since I was last kissed. I came out as a lesbian in 2021 and despite using tons of dating apps I've had very few dates, and half of those cancel as I'm on the way đŸ„ș I just turned 35, I want to settle down already! Where are the women who value a deep, authentic connection!?

    I'm currently single but I actually think there's a sliver of hope that I won't be on Valentine's day. I'm probably getting my hopes up for no reason, but my crush might just reciprocate feelings for me.

    Nope, and I'm fine with it. I'm not actively seeking a relationship, and the thought of maintaining one kind of exhausts me. When the time comes, I'll know.

    My almost 30-year-old son who has never dated before has a girlfriend for Valentine's Day this year! She sent my husband and me a box of Crumbl Cookies to thank us for raising our son to be a fine young man! To those singles out there, wait for someone who appreciates you. In the meantime, enjoy the freedom and take the opportunity to better yourself.

    Yup, im a single girl. I want to ask out this guy Cory, but I get nervous just thinking about it :/ My school dance is today, but im going with my furry friend Kyler. But that just makes problems, cuz some people think he is my date. I need advice because my closest way of flirting with Cory is smacking his hat off his head. Can i get some dating advice??

    Very much single. Been trying to date for the last 3 years. Not easy when you are short, almost 40, trans-male (pre-surgical), and bald. It's sad that people still care about what is between the legs more than what is between the ears and in the heart.

    I have a good reason to hate Valentine’s Day. Why all the hard candies? Pain in the a** to chew on. You can celebrate love everyday. Valentines are literally the worst. It’s basically a half baked thank you note. My hatred might come from being single but also I find it as a cheesy and idiotic plus unnecessary holiday. Plus the decorations are so gaudy.

    Been together for almost 19 years. I truly hate Valentines Day. It is so commercial. And it makes sensitive people that happen to be single miserable. Like, there isn’t anything wrong with you just because you are single on one day in the year.

    My husband likes it though. So, I got that unlucky draw

    First Valentine's day after I got married. Hubby is working out of the country but arrives the 14th at 23:00 or so... Celebrating on the 15th is always cheaper so I guess it's still a win?
