You have a lot to be happy about. You could be happy that you aren’t spending yet another valentine day with yet another jerk. Also you could be happy that you saved a buck by not taking a man out and paying for his meal.

We are sure entitled to happiness but there is more to happiness than having a man, especially wrong man.

You could call homeless shelter (or log in to a system if there is one in your area, we have a system where you can sign up for volunteering at shelters of your choice, well I don’t live in the area with shelters but system covers all inner city shelters that are in a drivable distance), I bet they need someone to serve meal or clean up the kitchen today, especially if it’s a holiday.

You’d feel greatly appreciated and it will be better time spent than crying. I used to do it many holidays. Puts your life into huge perspective plus you can’t be crying serving meals in soup kitchen or washing dishes (although I was often teared up because of gratitude people in shelters expressed to those who come there on their free time to help out).
Thanks for this!
