Thank God I’m Not In A Bad Relationship Day

In past years, I haven’t given a moments thought to it. But for some reason, yesterday, the fake Hallmark hype of Venereal Day prompted a shame spiral down the mental staircase of self-doubt. “How embarrassing to be single,” I thought and even contemplated NOT going out salsa dancing as it would be a testament to the world (people who don’t give a crap whether or not I sleep alone), that I, in reality, have no secret boyfriend who waits for me at home. I did concoct a story about how me and said pretend boyfriend broke up right before the holiday, and this has, actually, happened to me years past. But then I realized that the only thing worse than going out alone on Valentine’s day is not going out because you care about what other single people think about you to such a degree that it dominates your life and decisions.

And then I remembered bad moments in relationships with a variety of people, and suddenly, being single felt like a huge accomplishment. And so I decided to celebrate Freedom From Fucked Up Relationship Day, and felt really good about myself.

Just for today, I can celebrate Valentine’s Day.

  • As loaded with cheese as this sounds, you gotta be your own Valentine first. Seriously…why not spend that day doing things YOU like to do?! It’s not lame! Buy yourself flowers if you love them! Great day for a pedicure or your favoritte take out. Shoot, every day should be Self Valentine’s Day…

    Yes, I totally agree. I, usually, feel that way, but sometimes I get sucked into society’s precepts. Thanks!

  • Amen! I can’t imagine being bound to a person that I can only tolerate, and that I feel no sexual spark for. I’m only 30 though so God help me if I ever reach the point where I feel the need to “settle”, I don’t care to have children so that helps prevent the settling.
