I feel sorry for my friend, his birthday is on Valentines, and mine is two days before it. Having your birthday totally overshadowed by Spend-money-on-useless-trash-day is no fun

a small token thats chosen thoughtfully means a lot more to me on valentines day than somebody spending lots on bunches of flowers or 'special' valentines teddies, mugs or other rubbish. Saying that...theres probably many good reasons why I am single

Anna, you have my sympathies. Not a nice situation, but take care and look after yourself
