Maybe this will give you an idea:

My feelings are blue
My menses came
One day overdue

My 2nd grade year and the class was not required to give out Valentine's cards to every student. I wrote one for each person in my class. Everyone got multiple cards from the class, except for one student: me. Not a single card. That was the start of each Valentine's day getting worse with each year.

So I went on a first date with a guy I'd met online. He was super sweet, and funny and we had a lot of shared interests.
I met him at the restaurant and he was exactly what I was expecting in terms of looks. But it became clear almost immediately that something was off. His personality was completely different. He didn't recognize a reference I made that he himself had made just two days prior and it was all around kind of strange. The date itself wasn't terrible. Food was good and conversation was smooth enough for me to kind of brush it off as fist date jitters...
And then the waitress spilled water on me.
It was a complete accident and I wasn't upset by it. I actually apologized myself because I'm socially awkward. We all kind of laughed it off. And then he said "wait til I tell ___ about this!"
I said "who's ___?"
___ was his open relationship girlfriend. The one who'd been holding most of our conversations online. I was immediately uncomfortable. I have nothing against open relationships and if that's what you are your partner/s are comfortable all the more power to you but it's not my thing. And on top of that I felt very lied to. Not once had either of them indicated I was talking to anyone but him and no where on his profile did it mention her.
He could tell I wasn't pleased and he begged me to meet her. Said I would really like her if given the chance and she already really liked me and to just please give her a chance. So against my better judgement I went.
I let him drive because Im bad at directions. (Again incredibly stupid in hindsight. Never get int he car with a stranger.) And we met her at their shared apartment. She was nice enough. Happy to finally meet me. But I just wasn't comfortable. I asked him to take me back to the restaurant so I could get my car and he agreed, even though he was clearly disappointed. On the way back he nearly fell asleep at the wheel and almost got us killed. Turns out he has narcolepsy and if you don't talk to him or distract him while he's driving he just sort of, drifts off. It was terrifying. I got back to my car pulled out my phone and blocked him/them immediately.
Deleted my dating app too. Haven't been on one since. I'd much rather take my chances in the real world.
Also fun fact, I clicked on the wrong article when responding to this and end up writing this on an ask "how did you heal from a toxic relationship" so that's fun... Lol

let me first warn you that this is not nearly as bad as the others. however, six-year-old me was crushed. when i was in first grade, we were exchanging valentines in my class. one of my best friends gave me a sticky, pink cat-shaped thing that you were supposed to throw onto the wall and stretch. when i came home with this cat, who had already become my dearest possession, my siblings and i played around with it for a bit. then, my brother or my sister or maybe me hurled it onto the ceiling and nobody could get it down. it didn't come down until three years later when i was moving houses, my dad plucked it off the ceiling with a ladder and threw it away. i still mourn for it. not very bad, except to a six-year-old me.

Not too bad, but I am happily alone (single just seems wanting, and I'm not) and this kid asked me out last night after a five-minute conversation about how he plays drums and basketball. It was really awkward. My sister thought it was hilarious.

I received a flower bouquet, a pot roast meal kit and strawberry ice cream cones shaped like rose petals. The flowers were wilted, the pot roast was unnecessary bc I was battling strep throat and could barely swallow, and not to mention that I hate strawberry ice cream. This was all delivered on a box that said “Tomatoes” because it came from Aldi. The sad part- it was from my gf of three years who knows that Valentine’s Day is my holiday. Even though I was sick and at home, I still managed for her and our dog to receive beautiful gifts. I was so hurt.

It was last year.
My husband had made a reservation for a Valentine's fancy meal to take away in a restaurant that we love.
We didn't plan to eat there because our son was only 6 months, breastfed, and we wanted a nice meal at home without cooking.
The day before, my son had a medical issue and we spent 3 days at hospital (it was the second time my son was hospitalized this year, because doctors wanted to monitor him and make exams).
My husband wasn't allowed to stay the night with us, so we ate the Valentine's meal together without any pleasure and then he left.
I spent a horrible night on a couch, with my baby (monitored, wires, machines, beeps...) next to me. I cried and I was exhausted.
NB: The monitoring part was frightening but we were already used to it (premature baby) so I was rather positive about the situation.
Fortunately everything went good afterwards.
This year we spent a nice Valentine's day (at home !). But I couldn't help thinking about last year with knots in my stomach.
