My New Rant:
What's up with this site? Simple. Saint Valentine worked for Hallmark. He decided the best way to succeed was to CREATE a holiday. Boom, Valentine's Day! It tortures the couple-less and fattens to pockets of flower peddlers and greeting card companies. Everywhere you look, there's disgusting mixtures of red and pink. God, I hate pink.Every year, I get a few letters from people who have had a lousy Valentine's Day. I haven't received any hate mail, so I guess even people who are in love can appreciate the site... the fact is, we've all been there.
It's a shame that people are made to feel bad because they don't have a love in their life, and all because of FAKE holiday. People feel so much pressure that they propose on Valentine's Day, get married on Valentine's Day, etc. I think it's ridiculous.
Even if you're in a relationship, V-Day stresses people out, especially men. Why do that to yourself? Ignore this fictitious day altogether, whether you're are in a relationship or not. What would I recommend for a good anti-Valentine's Day? A-ha, the fun part!
1. Avoid any place couples go. Do something for yourself, at home.
2. Rent a good "bad" movie. Pick up Heathers or Welcome to the Dollhouse, Reservoir Dogs or anything that's a little on the wicked/angsty side.
3. If you want a laugh, go to Hallmark sometime in the evening and watch freaked out men try to pick out "the" card. Or, visit the nearest grocery store and watch people fight over the shriveled remains of flowers in a last-ditch effort for sex. Too fun!
A Chick's Rant from Mar 8:
Valentine's Day sucks for women, too.
Just because there's chocolate doesn't mean it still doesn't suck.
Lots of us don't have dates and have to buy our own fucking chocolate anyhow.
And then we just get fatter than we already are.
So it just sucks.
Thanks for listening.

valentine's day....love......all that crap, sure it's great if you have it but if you don't it sucks to be you. i know that. everyone gets so hyped up about the perfect gift or their most memorable love and you're sitting there listening with a broken heart wondering why you never have great times like this. valentine's day is just another excuse to lower self-esteem, too. seriously...i mean you feel like totally worthless if you don't have a valentine and you get all depressed watchin mushy gushy love movies all day eating choclate untill you get sick just to chase away all the stupid feelings all the sweet actors and actresses have that seem un-gettable to you.....in the immediate future at least....blah valentines day it's a joke. get over it cupid we hate you.

I too agree Valentines Day Sucks because I am also one of the VICTIM of this Idiotic Stupid hoilday. Valentines Day should be BANNED FOREVER and all other V-day haters should come out to make a Big Protest agains V-Day.
Wendy's Rant Sent Feb 15:
Why do we have this so-called "holiday"? Because the card, candy, stuffed animal companies (& florists) want to make more money, and also to make those of us unattached persons feel like worthless wretches, that's WHY!!
I sent out three ( 3!! ) cards to "friends" and 1 to my folks..guess who was the only ones to respond? Wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't in my 30's!
How to enjoy this day? Do as I do:
Rent My Bloody Valentine, Valentine, or as a last resort, The St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Capone knew how to celibrate this "holiday". Play certin songs. Love Stinks by J. Geils is perfect. Should really be the official anthem for this "holiday".
Get some candy for yourself. No one else is gonna get it for ya!
SCREW VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!

Valentine's Day SUCKS! Being a female does not automatically make me love Valentine's Day. We get pissed off about being alone on a "holiday" that celebrates love and realtionships just as much as any guy. Weather you are a guy or a girl doesn't make a difference. Lonliness is lonliness and it doesn't matter your gender. It hurts to be remineded that you aren't celebrating and aren't being celebrated on a holiday that is supposed to be about love. Valentine's is now what I make it to be. Valentine's Day is now a "holiday" meant for getting crocked and not giving a flying fu*k that you are not in a relationship. It will happen for us when it's supposed to. So until then, raise you glasses, bottles, or cans, and say "FUCK OFF Saint Valentine!"

Its pretty sad i have a girlfriend and you think i would be out doing something with her today on valentine's day, but she basically told me to just fuck of and she made plans with her friends and didnt even ask me if i wanted to do a damn thing today, so here i sit alone on the worst day of the year, yes valentines day really does SUCK!
Larisa Cynar's Rant Sent Feb 14:
Love is pointless. If you do find someone you "love" how do you know they love you back? If they say 'I love you" who says their not just after a piece of a$$? The only person you can always count on is yourself. People lie, cheat, and just f#$% you up even more. So what's the point. Love doesn't exist. People are easily deceived. One-second we may be hugging or kissing someone who we think loves us back then we realize that they are cheating on us or don't really care about us at all.

Valentine's Day is the worst! Every Valentine's Day I have known whether I had a significant other or have been alone has totally sucked. If you have a guy in your life they just buy you things so you will have sex with them and they always assume you wear a size "small" in any lingeree they buy you, so you end up spilling out of the outfit which of course the guy loves! I tried to cheer myself up today since it's the day before V-Day and I am single. I went to get a pedicure and manicure and ended up surrounded by women bragging about where their boyfriends were taking them on the BIG DAY. So I got bummed out that I have no plans and decided to go buy myself some cute sleepwear at a lingeree store. I ended up sidestepping around confused men picking out lingeree for their wives/girlfriends or whatever. I actually saw a guy tell his wife the ugly 100% red polka dot botton down pajama outfit she tried on was sexy! He had to be lying b/c they were totally GROOVY and geeky looking! I guess a guy can't say the wrong thing the day before Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day Day sucks b/c the guys are in it to get sex and the girls just want to brag to their friends how big their gift was or how expensive the retaurant was. CUPID BITES!!!!!!!!

Valentine's Day is pain and hate. For me its being insularity (being isolated)...again...for my life I am alone. I have an iota of sympathy for anyone complaining about their boy friend or girl friend AT LEAST YOU FUCKING HAVE ONE! I have always been alone. Never had anyone give a damn about me or my well being.

Summer's Rant Sent Feb 13:
I truly hate this friggin holiday! It has to honestly be the shittiest day ever, it surpasses the yearly trip to the "girly doctor" and I would much rather go to the dr every day of the year than celebrate this holiday that some jackass invented cause he wanted to torture us. Not only was I broken up with 3 days before Valentines cause "he needed a break" but it's the 3rd time in my life that I've been broken up w/ on or before this shitty day...yes, lovely isn't it. On top of that my ex-jackass had the nerve to tell me that he still wanted to do Valentine stuff...are you kidding me, what an idiot. Yes while I'm at it why don't I just roll over and beg for you...ugh...this day sucks.

Valentine's Day sucks when your man spent a year in another country, finally gets home, has been home for a month and you still haven't heard from him 2 days before Valentine's Day so you don't know if he's dead, sick or an asshole!!!!!! AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

You know what?? I have NEVER had anyone by my side on v-day. You know
what valentine's day does to people like me?? It shreds up our insides. It
makes us want to pull our hair out and cry. It makes us feel more lonely than
we already do... I hate this fucking holiday... Couples, do us a favor and
stay out of our way... the PDA bullshit only makes it worse.

The guy i'm dating would rather go jamming with his band then spend the night with me and when his cousin, my best friend, suggested that he get me a card or something he said,"Oh, I think this is starting to get too serious." Also, after that I decided to ask a guy I like on a date for Valentine's Day and he said no!! That's why valentines day sucks!!!!!!

Ah Valentine's day. The one holiday that makes you feel incredibly worthless. No love + no relationship = anything but a happy valentine's day. Ah, the sad truth of knowing you're all alone hits you the most on this tourturous day, hoping someone, anyone will give you a box of candy or send you a dozen roses... it never happens. It's the hloiday I think most people get disapointed on. Love and V-day just suck, we all know this. Love is for morons and Valentine's day is for suckers, you're better off just sitting at home watching the Lizzie Mcguire marathon on the Disney channel on Valentine's... that's what I'll be doing. Screw Valentine's day and the meaningless gifts and gestures that go on, on this dreadful day.

ok first let me just say that i dont hate valentines day just because im always alone, its because if you really think about it, its a pointless & stupid holiday. why do i say that? because why do you have to wait till February 14 to take your wife out to dinner, or to give your girlfriend a dozen roses. why can you do it today or tomorrow, does it have to be on valentines day. i never have someone special on valentines day, im not gunna lie, guyz have offered to be my valentine but der never da 1 i want! so to all you valentine lovers, keep your valentines day spirit away from me & to those of you who hate valentines day, stick with me & say VALENTINES DAY SUX!!

love is the worst thing that could happen to someone. love is not bliss, love is piss. when you love someone they suck the life out of you, you get fat, and insecure. you put your all into someone and they end of screwing you over because they are complete idiot that takes your kindness for a weakness. hurt feelings come from love, so therefore love is bad. fuck valentines day, fuck the cheap candy, corney stuff animals.....red and pink look tacky together, and so do cheesy couples.
fuck it

as sure as I can see a storm coming from the east. I can see the sky
getting darker. The wind picking up, and rumblings of thunder in the
distance. Once more I'm alone. I really do hate this month. It's like
pouring salt into an open wound. All the bitching in the world woun't
help. So let just cut to the chase and hope anyone out there will
follow me and say, " Valentines day sucks!!!"

What's worse than not having a date for Valentines day - never having a date for Valentines day. I don't even think there should be such a thing as Valentines day in the first place, but it doesn't exactly make me feel any better knowing that it does exist and I am alone. Valentines is just another insincere occasion to "prove" your love to someone else - as if paying for dinners/ movies/ dates and christmas & birthday presents isn't enough we have to have a whole day devoted to proving our love to the women in our lives. Yes women made this holiday what it is, so they could either be ecstatic or suffer and eat chocolate, kind of ironic huh? If it was up to guys there would be no Valentines day. All it does is remind people like me that there's love out there, which isn't actually too comforting when you're alone. Knowing that there's love out there and you don't have any makes you feel like there's something wrong with you - as anyone who has ever heard the "you'll find the right guy/girl someday" speech knows all too well. And all this is for a holiday celebrating a guy who got fed to lions hundreds of years ago - seems appropriate doesn't it?
