First i wanted to wish everyone at mylot especially my friends a very happy valentines day. Hope you have a wonderful day. For those of you who are single, do what i used to do, gather up your close single friends and go out. Believe me sometimes i think i had more fun doing that than wondering what to do with my boyfriend every valentines day.
Has anyone ever got into a relationship just to get a date on valentines day? I havent but i know many of my friends who have done that. Theyll start going out with someone just a week before valentines day!

Wow - no way. I am happy being single. Valentine's is not a doom and gloom day for me. To me it is to celebrate ALL the people that you love and show them that you care and that you are there. I start with my kids first thing in the morning and carry it from there with family and friends. It's not like you can only celebrate vday if you are in a relationship.

yes i know its silly but you cant imagine how many people actually do it. I always spend valentines day with my parents even though i have a boyfriend. we generally all go out for dinner together.

That is a great way to spend it. I do wish people in general would get off "needing" to have a partner in their lives and just let it happen. They would be so much happier.
Thank you for best response

Not that I can remember, but I may have done this in Jr. High or High school. Because we all know the pressures that are on you in school. I was a cheerleader and quite popular in school and I am sure there were times I was not dating anyone around the Valentine's Day so then yes I would have hooked up with someone a week or so earlier just to be sent something special on that day. I am so glad school is now over and i never have to deal those kinds of people. LOL

Thats the time I was actually talking about. Theres so much peer pressure that girls feel really bad if they dont get anything or dont have a date on valentines.

LMAO.. I can honestly say I haven't even thought of it. Not really worth the trouble is it?
I have heard people say things like "I should ask so and so out so I have someone on Valentines" so I'm certain it must happen!

Ha ha ha, I've never done that. I have hosted anti-valentines day parties at my house, or non-valentines parties at my house for all my single friends so we had something to do that night. We'd watch horror movies or sports or something...

No, that's kinda shallow. Plus I don't celebrate V-day even when in a relationship because I hate it. I dont want someone to tell me they love me just because Hallmark tells them too cuz um... that doesn't count. I'd rather they did it on a random day where theyre not "supposed" to be doing it.

no i haven't and i wouldn't because that's not fair. the other person thinks you are really into them and to find out you've only been using them. i'd be ticked off. i'd rather be single because vday doesn't mean that much to me anyways. you're right about just grabbing some friends to hang out with. it's much better that way. i don't know anyone that has done that but if i did i'd have to tell them they are wrong for doing that.
