I just went about it as any other day. I didn't notice anyone around me really getting all gushy gushy about it either so I wasn't really thinking about it too much. One day I'm sure I'll actually be able to celebrate Valentine's Day but I've never made a big deal out of it and I hope my future girlfriend/wife won't either.
But singleness isn't so bad when I'm ready and it's the right time it'll happen.

[quote="Doubleshadow"]I'm single and I genuinely love and perhaps overly value my status.
I have a sense of freedom and lack of encumbersome obligations and restrictions that would come with a relationship, although I am sure with the right man any compromises on my part would not feel as such.
I can view all males as my brothers in Christ or as lost souls that need to be reached without having to show special favor to any one of them.
I have the ability to focus especially on Christ (1 Corinthians 7: 32,33) without worrying about a boyfriend or spouse. I will never find myself in a postion where someone was telling me to denounce Christ or else see my spouse harmed or mistreated in some way]
I'm not trying to be facetious here, and I admire your attitude.
That being said, what are you going to do if Mr Right shows up?

Being single isn't so bad, it's just the idiots that rub it in your face that make it feel that way. At least that what happened to me.

Do people actively and intentionally rub it in your face?

First off, I'll say I am indeed single and not really looking because at my age there really isn't a point.
Second, why are these 'idiots' I keep hearing about rubbing the fact that they've got girlfriends/boyfriends in everyone elses faces?
Third, everything can be commercialized. Everything...
Fourth, I agree with Wise Dragon on this one. It's the matrix. It's gotta be.

Yes, Steeltemplar it was intentional as is possible. But thankfully it doesn't happen now (was more a High-school thing).

Sorry to hear that happened. That must have been trying.

Aww, poor you. Yes, that sounds like high school. In light of my total indifference to what most people thought of me and my desire to not be the stereotypical high school student, when people wanted to irritate me they would nominate me for the Prom Queens Court... then vote for me!

I was sick on V-Day so.... o_o I'm kinda indifferent.
Personally, I like buying my friends some candy or a cute plushie cause it makes me happy to make people happy. (I know... i'm cheesey...)
I suppose I'll have to wait for 'Mr. Right' as well before knowing what a 'real' V-Day is supposed to be like. ;D
u_u But seeing all the couples walking around does make me feel lonely though. *sigh* ::eats homemade heart cupcake in corner::

When I say rubbing it in your face I mean they like to sit there and project it to the whole world and it makes me sick. Ok people I work in a grocery store and there are people who come through and makeout with each other while waiting in line. Now doesn't that sound just like a romantic date to you. Ok sweetie lets go make out in the grocery story. It makes me sick.

I can understand that. I'm not a fan at all of people making out in front of me. Not because I'm single, really. Especially when they're in a line that I am in or, worse, when I am the store employee that is currently helping them. Just because that's....you know....personal.
There are, IMO, acceptable displays of affection. Handholding is fine. An arm around the shoulders or waist is also fine to me. A kiss on the cheek would be pushing things, but can be done tastefully. More than one kiss is not on my list of acceptable. So you can see where the line is drawn. Basically, I would just ask people to imagine what looks sweet and what looks too personal.
If people are in love, though, I am happy for them and they can show it within those acceptable limitations. Sure, the grocery store isn't a romantic date. But why do you need to reserve affection for romantic dates? Especially if it's a married couple. They are living a whole life together and the grocery store or whatever is a part of that. If they're happy to be married, then I'm all for that. We need more people who are serious about marriage in this country. There are too many divorces and too many unmarried people living together.

I think if you love someone so much that you want to make out then you should really get a room somewhere so you can do it in private.People who make out all the time in public just simply disgust me because it is so embarrassing to watch.

I see your point]Especially if it's a married couple.
In my experience its usually a couple of youth around my age thats doing it. Don't missunderstand me theres nothing wrong with showing affection in public; but theres point when it becomes alienating to everone around.

Right. I think we seem to agree on this - there's a distinct difference between making out and reasonable shows of affection.
