Valentine’s Day, or Single Awareness Day, is coming up. It’s that frustrating time of year that all the couples get all “aw” with one another and meanwhile the single folk get a different kind of “aw”. It’s the time of year when all of your family asks you if there’s a “special someone” in your life besides your pet. This nuisance will only last one day, but it can get old very fast.

The way to start off Valentine’s Day is accepting the fact that today you will see cheesy displays of love. Try to enjoy the sappy gestures and awkward rejections. Sure, a lot of couples will be overly romantic, but there will also be a lot of people breaking up. Just think, at least you’re not the one being rejected on Valentine’s Day...
