Hopefully i'll be working on Val's day. . . However, in the past, i remember sitting at home having a drink + some meat, and watching nice movies on val's day if i was single. In the evenings i'd lie in my bed with the lights off and curtains drawn, listening to kenny G and yanni. . . Instrumental music has a unique way of opening the mind up, and it helps with my reflections on the past and what the future holds.

I like to console myself with the thought that if a girl is not presently with me, then she probably doesn't deserve me grin

I don't think I even acknowledged Valentine's day, until I started dating, as a single woman, it really isn't a big deal either, unless you wish you had someone to share it with badly, and though a lot of us are hopeless romantics, we're pretty sane too, but the media makes Valentine's day (in the UK anyway) into such a big thing, I went to the supermarket 2 weeks ago, and there were Valentines cards, teddy bears and a section was dedicated to all the memorabilia.

Seeing those teddy bears and cards and chocolates, it kinda made me wish I had a reason to get some, but. . duh! you need a guy in your life to get one don't you? So you

Well, you know what? I'm going back to the store, but this time, I'm gonna get some cards and chocolates for my dearest. . . mum. smiley

Topup,

Are those words from a woman who is single and loving it, or so sad she can't bag a man?

Topup,

Lol, even if I was 'so sad' would I admit it?? Well, I used to wish I could have romance and a relationship, but then I realised that I actually cannot fulfil the romance at this stage in my life. First of all I am still studying in University, and my course is extremely competitive, I never have money to waste, so I can't be galavanting from his place to mine, it's almost a miracle that my last relationship ended before Christmas and definitely before Valentines, don't get me wrong, I'm not broke, but all the ideas I have for a successful relationship and how I would love to be in one, I actually don't have the means currently. Yeah, if the guy was in the same situation it would be fine, but I am not interested in students as much anymore.

I won't lie and say I'm loving being single, because there are times when you have had enough of 'girl-time' I live with 5 other girls and we've pretty much talked about everything there is to talk, and we are super close. Then you want the boyfriend you can watch movies with, and go to dinner with etc. .

I am sensible enough to accept that a relationship just doesn't fit into the equation of my life right now, but to be honest, no guys that I've been interested in have come my way, maybe if a dashing, young, smart, ambitious, guy approached me I would be saying something different, but as for now, the guys in my university are pretty average, and 'just wanna have fun' - types. That's okay with me, I'm gonna have my fun too smiley

- And that's my brief answer  tongue grin!

Funny how the ideology of Val's day not making sense draws emotions from those who call it just another day.

Anyways,it's just another day but not just another day, its another day to escape the mob crowd mentality and think for me,

But certainly been neo-colonial mentality or not, its kinda kool for folks who forget abt showing love daily to discharge from their love tanks a little, but this val, would be taking an exam, undecided

Lovelace:

Here we go again.
What does it matter if you are single on the friggin' day.
Live your life,spend everyday with people that matter to you. Who cares about the 14th.
Just another avenue for some people to get dumped anyways.

It appear Valentine's day expectation is a case of the 'Abilene Paradox', in which a group of people collectively decide on a course of action that is counter to the preferences of any of the individuals in the group.

Guys don't give much of a hoot and ladies like don't really care that much, but we believe the other party expects us to do something, which we do and then expect something back even though we really don't care. Doesn't really make sense,

So why don't folks tell their partners that Valentine's day does not hold a special significance and end the pressure?

Iyalode, na wa for u ooooooooooooooooo

@post
LOL, men don't care much for valentines jare.
And valentines is mostly for the ladies cheesy
When ppl think valentines, they automatically think love.
It's not always the case, abeg, friends give each other gifts, go out together, party, and go shopping.

What I love about "here" is that valentines is not always about buy me buy you stuff.
It's about being together wink Y'all should see the valentine parties they throw and valentine grams they give out. tongue
Can't wait for this years smiley Def staying on campus with friends this time. kiss
