Feeling Lonely Anyone on 14th Feb?
This might sound desperate or pushy, but really thinking about how others feel about today? Like going outside on the streets you see couples and deep inside "kind of" feel bad about yourself, and wish there was a companion in disguise. I also think that you really don't need a v-day to show love because with the right person everyday is a v-day:)
Especially being in New York it's a disaster as it's a valentine's day city in itself. Days like these, and Christmas, call for being so much lonely. How do you guys combat with your emotions on days like these? Is there a way to feel better about yourself when you are literally seeing millions of couples out there having a great time and wished that you had a special one too?
Like literally so many of us have nothing wrong and almost everything figured out but we still couldn't manage to find a quality partner to spend time with.
Please feel free to keep the discussion wide and open and please throw Qs along the way :)

That's pretty normal to feel this way. because being humans we do have emotions and sometimes it's bad to have them but most of the times it's good to have them.
have you ever fallen in love? It's something that you can't intentionally do. if you are trying to do it then you are doing it wrong. We can just be a nice person and open to people so that whenever someone sees that in us. they'll like or even fall for us. It happens gradually.
If you are feeling this then that means you are a good person but I think you've not been open to people around you. Make friends, go out. have lots of people around you. Soon someone will see something in you or maybe if you find someone just ask them to go out with you someday. Don't be committed for the sake of being committed.
A bit psycho but it is what I do on 2/14 since last 3 years xD
A relationship has to be really good for it to be worth giving up being single, which has many benefits.
If I was in a relationship, I would say the same thing, that there are benefits of being in the relationship, and being single comes with it's own problems.
There is no easy way through life, you just have to appreciate each part and enjoy it as much as you can.
