Valentine's Day is portrayed to be a very exciting day, well yes, for couples, but it's a dreaded day for singles like me. I remembered one time, I hang out with girl friends at the beach on a valentines night. It was cold then and my other friend who was supposed to bring the tent didn't make it, so we ended up trying to curl up to find some warmth. Damn, that was a cold night indeed. But yeah, it was a good idea gone bad. So anyways I thought I would try to invite someone to go on a date with me, but really, am I that desperate? I think yes, to some degree because of the fact that I have even thought of that idea. But yes, I guess I really should be saving my valentine's day for someone whom I love. I mean, what's the use of dating a complete stranger on a valentine's day. Well, yeah, for some people they do that, but I think I'd rather not. So while surfing on youtube, I found this video about feeling gorgeous about oneself, and luckily enough, it gave me good ideas how I could just celebrate valentine's day by just loving myself. And I thought, yeah, why not just do that instead.

I just came out from a breakup and I realized that I made it even harder for me because I had been digging my own wound rather than just help me heal it. I watched romantic movies and listened to sad songs. I still go back to old memories and still communicate with my ex who already has moved on. It was hard, but now I learned from my mistakes. I need to help myself and be kind to myself by giving myself time to heal and step back and just take it from a broader perspective rather than focusing on the pain.
I thought that I could adjust everything for the guy and I could do everything for him, but really, it was disrespectful to me and to my dreams and aspirations in life. I ignored me and focused on the relationship. It was so wrong. At least I learned.
