Right, like they said! V-Day isn't just about getting nice presents, its about being with the people you truly love and care about, letting them know you care, and having a good time! Don't feel upset.
Today was actually alright for me. I knew that there definantly were couples in my school that were going to have a good time today, and that I wasn't one of them. But I still felt good knowing that people still cared enough to give me cards and a little candy. And we all watched a movie, Herby Fully Loaded, with our class today, with snacks! I was thankful to be with my class today, because atleast I knew some people actually cared.
I understand that you're upset, but ask yourself: Is it because you don't have someone to spend Valentine's Day with, or just because you didn't get a present?
I honestly think you are overthinking all of this, or your want for material things is so great, it's soured you. Either way
Trust me guys I wasn't looking forward to today either. I'm single and have been for 2 years now. Last couple of years on this date have been uber depressing. But you know what actually made this better? Out of the blue I got cards and messages and whatnot from some of my friends from far away in the same boat as me. This day isn't just for lovers as the media makes us out to believe. It's also celebration of friendship. I'm very grateful for my friends and family and I love them dearly.
I'll have a significant other someday, but for now, the gestures I got for valentine's day made my day less lonely
If you're that upset that you didn't get anything material or a card or anything, I'd think about this: It made someone else happy. You're only focussing on yourself.
