13 One-Liners Single People Definitely Don't Want To Hear Around Valentine's Day

"Just because Valentine's Day is on a Wednesday doesn't mean you can have a sad Wine Wednesday by yourself."

Cuffing season is hell for those who are single, especially its culminating event, Valentine's Day. Around Valentine's Day, those who aren't single seem to forget how much we hate the holiday or they just don't care. It can be so frustrating being the only single one, or the single one whose friends are all in relationships.

Here are some things every single person has heard around Valentine's Day:

1. "Did you see ________'s Instagram post?"

2. "Just because Valentine's Day happens to be on a Wednesday doesn't mean you can justify having a sad Wine Wednesday by yourself."

3. "Sorry, I can't come to your Galentine's Day party. I'm going out."

4. "Maybe we could do a double date? I know a guy."

5. "You'll find love eventually. I know it."

6. "Is that Valentine's Day candy for yourself?"

7. "Are you going out with anyone this year?"

8. "You can't be alone on Valentine's Day."

9. "That's OK! You could always try Tinder."

10. "What are your plans?... Netflix binge?"

11. "When is the last time you were on a date?"

12. "Seriously? Just find a date."

13. "You need to lighten up."

Valentine's Day will be OK. You will get through it. I promise. If you're still worried, take comfort in the fact that you aren't the only one.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
