It’s Valentine’s Day!

And for the 30th year running I just happen to be single. I have been in relationships and been on dates, but nothing has lasted long enough or been close to Valentine’s Day. That being said, I clearly know what it’s like to not have fun being alone on this day. It can feel lonely, hopeless, and down right disappointing. But lately I have been thinking a lot about if I even want to be in a relationship at this stage in my life.

As I am about to be 30 this May it seems my biological clock is ticking. But at this current point I am very happy with my life the way it is. It could seem to some, like I just saying that because I am single, but in reality I am still learning to love myself and trying to learn who I am as an individual before I would feel right entering a relationship.

I also am not that worried about my biological clock, since I don’t see parenthood as something I personally want for myself. I am happy to just help take care of my nieces, nephews, and siblings (I have a lot of siblings).

I do sincerely hope that everyone who did have someone special to celebrate the day with had a magical day/night, and I hope that if anyone had experienced any kind of breakup or separation today that it doesn’t hurt you too badly and that with some time and healing you will be able to recover and meet your forever person when the time is right.

For everyone like me who spent the whole day single, I hope you will not see today as a day to be cynical or emotionally devastated, but that you will see it as a day to shower your self with self love and care like I did. Because you deserve it!

My final hope for all of you reading this is that in the course of the day you don’t resort to committing any kind of crimes in the name of love or revenge or anything like that. Legally, ethically, and as a human being I can’t force you to do or to not do something, but I must highly advise against committing crimes or anything similar. (unless it’s considered a legal crime to be LGBTQIA+ in your area or something similar. that shouldn’t be a crime because there is nothing wrong with it). I more mean no doing stiff like illeg drugs, murder, or stalking, stuff like that is frowned upon and illegal for good reasons generally.
