the looove month.

i love february!
there’s something so fun about a month focused on LOVE.
i am also single.
“what?” you say. a single person loving february. impossible.
but it’s true!
do i get sad on the big 14 when i’m not out on a perfectly planned, over hyped, sappy romantic date?
absolutely.

confession.
i have never had a great date on valentines day.
oh sure there’s been those “i guess we’ll go out because we don’t have anything better to do but nothing too romantic because ‘this’ is not a serious relationship” dates.
or there was “we’re in a long distance relationship and it’s not worth the ticket so please accept these flowers and a phone call.”
and there’s definitely been a lot of “i’ll just stay home and watch the notebook and eat half baked ice cream and take a bubble bath and pretend i’m better off.”
but a good old fashioned romantic valentines date?
never.

so why would i love february/valentines day?
because love is something to be celebrated!
and appreciated.
and hoped for.

and even without prince charming, i have a LOT of love in my life!

and i know that one day,
i’ll never have another lonely valentines day again.
and that’s worth waiting for.
