Dear Cupid,

Where the hell are ya? I'm approaching my 20th Valentine's Day and I'm still alone. What is the sitch? You seem to have missed me when you went and shot your little arrows into everyone else. My friends, my cousins, even my little sister!?!? They've all had their turn finding someone and falling in love and then there's me. Seemingly forever single.

I ponder all the reasons why you may have skipped over me. Do I smell bad? I shower pretty often, use deodorant and even use perfume! So I don't think it's that. Is it because I cry too much? Because I could probably tone that down too if it would mean an arrow would come my way. Maybe it's because I'm an awful cook. But I do make a dank grilled cheese!! Come on, that has to count for something! But seriously, where the hell are you....enough is enough.

Sometimes it really sucks. Ya know, being single and stuff.

But guess what, according to everyone in a relationship ever, "It'll happen when you least expect it!!!!!!" Well friends, I've been "least expecting it for about a year now. Still not happening. So now I'm writing a letter to Cupid, maybe this letter will grab his attention a little and something good will come my way.

This has been a good year for me! I deleted all my dating apps (see ya Tinder and Bumble), because the guys on there are looking for one thing, and it's not exactly PG. I've sat in all the little cute coffee shops hoping someone will slide their number my way, but no such luck. And I can't meet anyone in class because I have the same people in every class. I guess I'm just an unlucky gal.

I think I've come to the conclusion that I have 7 years bad luck from breaking that mirror that time. That's a thing right? So no wonder why I'm single and alone and writing this pointless letter to Cupid. Because I broke that freakin' mirror.

Well you know what Cupid? SCREW YOU. I may regret that in a year when I'm still single but until then, I've had enough of your crap. Who says that you get to determine everything? I did nothing bad to you! Yet you seem to skip me every single time. I'm done. Enough. This year WILL be my year, whether or not you come my way.

To all my single friends out there, don't get too down this Valentine's Day. Being in a relationship, or having a significant other does not determine your self-worth. Treat yourself this February 14th, go on a dinner date with a friend, stay in bed, eat chocolate, watch your favorite t.v. show, go to the gym and get some of that angst out on the track! Head to the local club and bust some moves to get that serotonin flowing! You are beautiful just the way you are, independent, brave, and sexy af and you don't need a Valentine to be loved! Your friends love you, your family loves you, and your dog most definitely loves you. That sounds like enough love for me.

Plus, love can be kind of icky.

Moral of the story, love yourself. Cupid is silly, and you don't need a Valentine to be loved. It's just one silly day, and it'll all be over on the 15th. Chin up, smile. Everyone's time will come, and if mine doesn't, I'm totally okay adopting 5 dogs from the local shelter. Anyways, Cupid, it would be nice if you headed my way soon, if not, that's okay too.

Happy Valentine's Day<3
