Why Hello, Sweethearts
Oh Valentine's day! A day of love, caring, and cherishing your loved ones....Unless you're single like me. Then it's a day of chocolate, ice cream, and a marathon of romance movies. It may seem sad, but I actually love being single on Valentine's day. Instead of having to go on some kind of cliché date at an over booked restaurant, I get to stay home, dig into a pile of 50% off chocolates and let my heart break over romances that I will most likely never have. It's quite fun, actually. So instead of going on and on about the perfect date, and how hot my imaginary boyfriend is, let's talk about how we don't need no man, or woman to be happy! We can simply be happy and free!
Even though todays society may seem to tell us that you need a partner to be happy it's not true. We can all survive perfectly fine independently. Take myself for example! I have been single, and proud for about 3 years. Not because I can't get a guy, but because I don't need one. And to tell you the truth these 3 years have been some of the happiest years of my life! I've got great friends, great grades, and no worries what so ever. It kind of reminds me of a post a saw on Facebook. 'Being single doesn't mean you're weak. It just means you're strong enough to wait for what we deserve.' and you, my friends deserve only the best. So please don't treat being single like it's a bad thing. It just means we are waiting for some one who will treat us like we're their everything.
Now I will admit, I am being a slight hypocrite right now. Why, you may ask? Because I'm a complete hopeless romantic that's why! I believe in 'soul mates' and 'love at first sight' and all that crap! I don't really cry at romance movies, but my heart literally aches! For example, I was watching my one of my favorite romance movies, 'What's Your Number?', and screamed at the T.V. because of how clueless the female lead was, then squealed like the teenage girl I am when they finally got together. I love classic love stories! I get so happy when someone finally finds their perfect someone. It kind makes you wish you had a love like that of your own. But you just got to remember that you will find it someday. And if you already found your other half, congratulations! You've found the true love of your life, if you could be so kind to tell me just how you did that, that'd be wonderful!
Anyways, all the roses and paper hearts away, love is a very fragile thing, that I'm sure we'll all find eventually. Until then don't be ashamed of being strong and independent. Enjoy life as it is, and be happy!
With lots of hugs,
