Eh, well depending on what day of the week it falls on, I'll either play games and generally do nothing(since I've never had a Valentine ever), or I'll be working. Woohoo.
Oh great, its that time of year again (V-day)

Fuck Valentines day. Couples start to act so sweet and are generally being smug douches. Never in my relationships did I act so disgustingly cute. Hell I never used the term "my baby" (in Greece every couple and their dogs use this term).
Maybe that's why I've never had a long term relationship. Hmmm...

I'm going to be busy at school all day anyway, so I'm not too bothered. I mean, you feel less lonely if you're in school uniform, for some reason. It's like you almost have a legitimate reason to be single - you're studying and you're still a kid. I look younger in my uniform. Oh well. If I get very disgruntled about all the PDA then I'll just go home and reread the Skip Beat! arc about Mogami Kyoko's incredibly hatred for Valentine's Day. And laugh.

I don't have anyone to celebrate with currently...but Valentine's day IS a private thing between couples for the most part. Are people trying to forcibly include you in their celebrations? Are obnoxious couples sitting down at your dinner table? Are you being forced to deliver flowers for someone? At worst, you're seeing people showing affection in public, which is very certainly their right. Stay home if you have some strange inability to ignore it. And if Valentine's day is a slap in the face to you because you don't have anyone to spend it with, it might be time to reconsider the priorities in your life.
There's a lot more to life than Valentine's day or relationships in general. Sure they're nice to participate in in a lot of cases, but you shouldn't let a lack of either in your life become something that actually bothers you.

Yeah... Everyone will make their excuses- "Oh, I hate Valentines day. It is so commercialized.", "I'm to busy to hold a relationship.", "I'm just not looking into a relationship right now.", or the classic "Valentines day is gay anyway." for each one will be said with a grain of salt and a tear rolling down your cheek.
It all really comes down to the constantly asked questions you give yourself. Like "Am I just that ugly?", "Am I just to fat?", or are you just not trying hard enough?
But no matter the question or answer. You always have an excuse.
Pfff... Fuck it. Valentines day is gay anyway...
Should have tried this year.

Yep, pretty much this...Phlakes said:
18[sup]th[/sup] consecutive year alone.
Go me! *cries in corner*
OT: I'm gonna roll out the old 'it's all soooo corporate now' which means businesses don't want couples to be private and subtle, they want them to buy as much garish, pink stuff as possible and try and be outside as much as possible in order do show the world that they are lovin' V-Day.
Or you could just go out for a quiet,
I used to play guitar for a death metal band, we just went our separate ways eventually, but we had a 3 year streak of an annual Anti-Valentines Day show, and it was sort of common knowledge that everyone there was single (couples could go too) and it wasn't frowned upon to just ask someone to hook up. I'm usually not that type of guy but I had a girl come on to me after we performed (we were just before the headliners) and I gotta say, that event made it so worth while to be single each year. I think they stopped having it because most of the bands split up. A shame man...
Probably this.RandallJohn said:Hell yeah. I'll be on WoW all day.
Why in hell would I rush to get a date for Valatines Day? I dont mind being alone on Valatines Day
Meh.
As always, spending it alone, probably, since my boyfriend is away at Uni.
You'd think having a boyfriend would make me more likley not to be alone, but it's just made me more cynical about v-day. I have plenty of other days to spend with him, eating pizza, discussing D&D, watching Top Gear and fucking. That's in order of importance. Descending order.
Probably give him a quick "yay, valentines, what a crock of shit, but love you anyway" on the day.

When I first saw this thread I was like "V-day [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-day]? As in Victory-day, the one used in the WW2 era? None of them is coming up quite yet?" Then I read the OP and went "ooooohhh..."
Anyhow, on topic! I'm probably just gonna send my valentine an e-card/sms/mms or something, as we both agreed that the 12th is a better day to spend together (seeing how the 12th is a Saturday and the 14th a Monday).
