The day of amore is quickly approaching.
Do you know what this means?
That's right, everything from candy to cornbread is suddenly sold in the shape
of a heart, and worst you feel the burden to have a date for the night.
Valentine’s Day can be one mean mama.
You spot her hanging out on your corner, her raven hair teased up high, spiked heels, cleavage spilling out of her low-cut top, and her deep red lips are turned up in a pouty smirk. You don’t make eye contact as you slide pass her in the anticipation you’ll go unnoticed, and she won’t call you out.
You let out a sigh of relief as you mosey by her without incident, when from behind you hear her soft sultry voice say, “Hey sexy.” She called you “sexy” Valentine’s Day isn’t such a mean mama…right? Without turning around you ask, “Are you talking to me?” Valentine purrs, “I’m talking to you, you sexy thing.”
This is better validation than a date for the night, Valentine’s Day herself called you “sexy”. Smiling you spin around to face her, she motions for you to come closer. She grabs you by the nape of your neck, her eyes dancing, as if she knows something which escapes you. She lifts your chin, her pouty lips lay a sweet salty air kiss on your cheek, then with a hardy laugh she pushes you away. “Get out of here, looser” her cold steel grey eyes piercing you.
Flummoxed, you say, “Valentine, it’s me, sexy thing.”
Valentine’s Day laughs harder, she mouths the word “Looser” as she makes the ‘L’ sign on her forehead. Shocked you run off into the night crying, while in total agreement with her. You always knew, no date for Valentine’s Day equals ‘Looser’.
Well, no longer, this is your liberation day, you have been set-free, from the constraints and demands of Valentine’s Day.
There are amazing benefits to singleness on Valentine’s Day. For women you don’t have to struggle to fit into the sexy bustier, and garter belt set. While all the time wondering, if he realizes the woman wearing this outfit in the catalog has been photoshop, and then photoshop again. For men you'll not have the knot in your stomach from the pressure to achieve a night which will trump all other nights of romance for her.
Don’t rub your liberation in the face of couples, instead have some pity for them. They have the weight of this one day, out of 365 days, which has to be the most romantic night of the year; count your blessing this isn’t you.
