Nobody noticed I was single on Valentine's Day. There are heaps of perks to being single- such as having a huge party instead of having to fork out for a fancy restaurant.
As others have said, the day also need not be about the Saint. Most people use it to celebrate all kinds of love- including the love of family and friends instead of just partners. Really, V Day is just another day, and as such, it is what you make of it. If you're going to make anything of it, it might as well be something positive.
And whether you celebrate it because of the saint or not(which im aware that NO ONE does) Im still not cool with honoring him in any way. It makes me feel ignorant. If people are so loving then I think we should celebrate it everyday, instead of waiting for an excuse.
