Happy Valentine's Day to all!

Happy Valentine's to everyone on PC!

If you are sharing the day with a loved one, I am happy for you! Have fun creating new memories!!

If you are spending this Valentine's alone and wish you were sharing it with a loved one, you never know what the future will bring! Life is filled with endless possibilities.

If you are spending this Valentine's alone and prefer it that way, fair play to you! Autonomy is a beautiful trait!

Thank you so much for making this thread, HopefullyLost1211! You're so sweet Happy Valentine's Day! I hope you've all had a nice day and that you spent it with the people you love - including yourselves! Sending many hugs to everyone

A day made for love....

Happy Valentine’s Day to everybody!

Valentine's Day is very meaningless for me. There hasn't been that special someone for me in decades. Probably never will have that someone. Well at least Valentine's Day is not so hyped as it used to be, so that makes it easy for me. Perhaps romance has died or not as good as it used to be. I remember feeling really awful on Valentine's Day in the past. I don't feel as bad now as I used to.

Thank you for your good wishes!

Thanks, hope everyone has a good one... whether you celebrate it happily or not.

Will, I am sorry if my Valentine's message made you feel badly. I was actually sending out Valentine's messages to folks on PC to send love and support of the non-romantic, non-sexual kind.

I do not believe that loving a friend, son/daughter, sibling, parent, neighbor is of any less value than loving a sexual/romantic partner. Society tells us that having a romantic partner is the top goal but why? There are reasons for that which I won't get into here but in reality it has nothing to do with romantic love actually being more important.

That said, I was hoping to put a smile on your face when I sent you a Valentine...to make to feel connected and cared for. Not to remind you of Society's obsession with the quest for romantic love. I am sorry if it came across differently Peace to all

No spending the day alone, home sick from work and my dog is by my side.

I spent it alone but I was perfectly happy with that. The weather was actually decent for the first time in weeks. So I actually felt pretty good today. I watched the same Valentine’s Day special 3 times today. I am hoping there’s some candy leftover at the stores that will be 1/2 off tomorrow.

It wasn't you that made me feel bad about Valentines Day at all. I was making a point about how I feel about Valentines Day. Others had said that they were alone, and I felt very much the same way. Overall, I didn't feel bad that much yesterday.

You are correct about society saying that you should have that special someone on that day. And that was something I wasn't too crazy about. For comfort yesterday I read about why people hate Valentines Day and I had to agree with the points. A couple of writers were saying that Valentines Day can do more to destroy relationships than to enhance it. I think I agree with it.

I appreciated you sending me a little private message yesterday. It made me feel pretty good.

Thank you Will. I understand you. Your points are very well made. For me personally, whether in a romantic relationship or not, I choose to send out loving thoughts to various people in my life on Valentine's Day. I view it as a reminder to openly express my love. For example, yesterday I sent a loving message to my uncle...thanking him for being so good and kind to my parents down the years and for all the wonderful things he did for my siblings and I when we were children. I thanked him for hugging me when one of my parents died. I acknowledged and returned his love on Valentine's Day. Just my way of doing things. Thank you for sharing your own truth, Will!
