Guys… I did something weird. And I need to talk about it.
You see, the last three Valentine’s Days have been a running joke with my friends.
I am always alone. And I swear it always rains. And people around me are always receiving obnoxiously large bunches of flowers that semi hit me in the head as they get delivered.
I speak to Mia Freedman and Monique Bowley about purchasing my Valentine’s Day date online. Post continues below…
And everyone is always posting bizarrely intimate declarations of love on Facebook when really they should just be saying them to each other. In person.
To put it in perspective, my last Valentine’s Day card read “Hope you’re feeling better soon”, accompanied by a disgusting chocolate flavoured protein bar my friend definitely just found at the bottom of their gym bag as they pulled up to my house.
And the saddest part is…..that I ate it, because I was a little bit hungry.

3 years being single is nothing at 26. I'm 30 and I've been single for 9 years! Yep 9 years! And I've never paid for a date nor am I happy to be single either. And I've tried to find someone. I've only ever received Valentine's Day presents like 3 times in my life, nobody bothers to give me a card at all or wish me happy Valentine's, at least you got something. And I too feel horrible looking at people's happy pics and flowers and notes. I will never pay for a date though, no matter how bleak I might feel. Maybe you need to change your perception of Valentine's Day and call it singles appreciation (and awareness) day. I've found this has helped me in the past.
Happy Valentines Day.
Do you find the problem finding dates or finding the right date? I'm interested in what are the main things that disqualifies potential suitors for you.
i could change that ;)
I have problems finding decent men who actually want to get to know me as a person rather than a body to have sex with
I think: Interesting & entertaining. Pretty good piece.
