Tonight, I am going to a Valentine party at our church. I think there is a movie and some refreshments. There are some heart decorations on the table.
That is good but I don't have a Valentine. Do you have someone who is your Valentine or just memories?
If you don't have a love to go with, do you go anyway or just stay home?

I'm glad you could go somewhere and have your own version of fun. My husband and I stopped celebrating Valentines a couple of years after we started dating. We celebrate our love every day, not when the greedy retailers tell us to 
We refuse to feed the monster!

I would go to a function like that because there would be a lot of people to have fun with together. Otherwise, I stay at home, which is what I did yesterday. It's been a long time since I've celebrated Valentine's Day and my husband was severely lacking in the romance department. He never gave me anything for Valentine's Day.

I don't have to worry as far as Valentine's date is concerned. I have my permanent Valentine's date, my wife.

@Nakitakona Thanks, it is hard to understand or accept it.

My fiance didn't even say Happy Valentine's Day to me. But it's ok since he is trying to come down for my birthday. I stayed at home. I had a headache anyway. I gave Lily (my cat) a treat and two new litter boxes.

@Shivram59 There is no time limit on grief. It does get better, though. When I lost my daughter, I was a puddle of goo for a long time.

@akalinus Many many thanks. Many many hugs.
I know you feel our pain.My mother is in a state of unbearable shock.My father is almost senseless.I don't know what to do .It will take us a long time to recover from the shock and recollect ourselves.
