11 Thoughts Single People Have The Week Before Valentine's Day

There is about one week until Valentine's Day, and you see red and pink anywhere you look. Restaurants are now taking reservations, pizza places are advertising their limited time heart-shaped pizza, and your coupled friends are stressing out about what to get their significant other. The only plans you have so far for this Valentine's Day are probably ordering pizza and binge watching Netflix with all of your single friends. Here are some thoughts that are probably running through your head as you try to survive this week:

1. Wow. Where did all of these couples come from?

They are literally everywhere.

2. Can I still give my friends some Valentine's Day cards?

I hope they like homemade ones.

3. Why did I ever turn that guy down?

Is it too late now to say sorry?

4. What should I do while my friends are all on their dates?

Sing along to Adele. Blast Taylor Swift's music. Eat a box of chocolates. Repeat.

5. Wow. Please stop with the PDA.

It's everywhere you go. At school, at the mall, at restaurants. Sorry, but I don't think there's a way of escaping this part of Valentine's Day.

6. Does anyone actually need a stuffed animal that big?

7. OK, maybe they do.

As my friend would say, it's like a boyfriend but doesn't talk.

8. Maybe my parents will offer to pay for my dinner.


It's still free dinner. Am I right?

9. Better yet, maybe someone will actually ask me out to dinner this year.

No negative attitude here.

10. Actually, I don't care.

I mean, it's their loss.

11. At least chocolates will be on sale next week.

Time to gain 15 pounds!

So if you're alone this Valentine's Day, just remember that you are not the only one. Also, if you do have a date this year, be a good person and bring your leftover dinner food and chocolate home to your single roommate. Or you can be a great friend and buy them dinner and chocolates. Happy February 14th! XOXO

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
