Valentine's Day brynne: What horrible coincidence for our first Valentine's day single to fall on a SATURDAY of all the days in the week ?
First V-day after my divorce & it would be on a Sat. It's too soon for me to date, don't really want one anyway...way TOO much pressure for a date on V-day.
Feb. is the month I met my husband and there are a lot of memories tied into this month. also same month we got engaged on our 1 year anniversary.
SOOO...I decided instead of sitting around feeling sorry for myself & feeling like a dateless loser, some single female friends (they are few in #) are going to get together & rent sappy movies & drink to our heart's content. That's how I'll be spending my V-day.
Anyone else care to share there 1st V-day as a divorcee plans ???
Hope
Re:Valentine's Day Spectrum: Hmm... I know I'm going to get blasted for this, but I think I may spend it with my STBX. I figure, hey, we both know where we're at. Neither of us have anything better to do.
Might as well take one last weekend of denial, right?
Considering how fresh this whole thing is for me (about a month), I'm just not interested in doing any singles crap where I might have to fend off potential suitors, and pretty much all my friends have spouses or boyfriends they'll be with. I'm temporarily living with my parents, and they will want their privacy.
As long as I'm on speaking terms with my STBX, and he offered, I think that is what I'll do. It is either that or being miserable and alone. Much better to be slightly less miserable and with company.

Re:Valentine's Day finney5: As stated on another thread, there are a couple of significant dates this month. Since my ex never really acknowledged them above any other time, I guess I won't be too upset. But I WILL be going out with some girlfriends and getting blitzed.
Re:Valentine's Day incoherentlonghorn: In addition to spending Valentines day out with friends, a group of my friends in an effort to encourage independent strength and to show support have decided to rename V-day as Singles Appreciation Day (SAD).
This idea includes going out in a large group to celebrate, enjoy each others company, and for those interested maybe pick up prospects. Another option is to select the least romantic restaurant possible (last year they went to Fudruckers).
Re:Valentine's Day faegonsgold: My first V-day as a divorcee will be spent working. Haven't had to work any Saturdays this year. Funny that the first Saturday I do have to work is V-day. I'm actually ok with it...I personally think V-day is so over-rated anyway.
After work, I'll probably go home and do absolutely nothing.
