Valentine's Day: As couples spend the day going on dates and posting Instagram photos containing roses and over-sized teddy bears with cheesy captions talking about how #blessed they are, the single women of the world march past the Valentine's Day aisle in Wal-Mart with pints of ice cream in hand and their heads held high with a plan to binge-watch romantic comedies for the next 24 hours. It's a day of survival, and we plan to make it out alive. Take a look into the mind of the average, single girl during this romantic holiday.
1. Oh no. I just woke up on the most dreaded day of the year.
2. Dang it. I made a pact with myself last year that I wouldn't spend Valentine's Day single again.
3. Be honest with yourself. That goal was as realistic as your New Year's Resolution to stop eating Taco Bell.
4. Time to check my texts. Maybe some cute, single guy is feeling as lonely as I am and has magically decided to ask me on a date.
5. One text from my mom. Ha ha.
6. Whatever, it's OK. I don't care.
7. Who am I kidding? This day sucks.
8. *drives to Wal-Mart and buys a pint of ice cream*
9. Did the cashier just ask me if I had any plans for Valentine's Day? I'm in a Wal-Mart at noon buying ice cream in a hoodie with no makeup. Is it not obvious?
10. *screams Taylor Swift's lyrics in the car all the way home*
11. Wow, Taylor really has me questioning if I should have broken up with my kindergarten boyfriend.
12. We could have been so happy together.
13. All right, time to pick a romantic comedy.
14. "The Notebook" seems like the most logical choice since I'm so emotionally stable right now.
15. If Ryan Gosling built me a house there would be no question about who I loved. Rachel McAdams does not deserve him.
16. Oh, look, I've eaten the entire pint of ice cream.
17. Ben and Jerry, I don't know how to tell you this, but I think I love you.
18. *sees self in mirror*
19. OK, I look like a train wreck. I need to pull myself together.
20. I am a strong, independent woman that don't need no man.
21. I'm going to text all my girls. #GalentinesDay, am I right?
22. *scrolls through contacts*
23. OK, well she has a boyfriend of two years.
24. She just got into a relationship. Congrats, I guess?
25. Is she still dating what's-his-name? Wow, I hope not.
26. *forms group text with the few girls who are still as single as you are*
27. Perfect, now I have a date night planned. Yes, it's with four girls and the first date I've been on in years, but it's cool.
28. Time to look hot.
29. OK, yeah, we're just watching a movie and ordering pizza, but the pizza guy could be really attractive.
30. He may even ask me out.
31. We could ride around in his delivery car all night and eat pizza together. This is going to be so romantic.
32. What am I doing? That is not going to happen.
33. Oh, cool, my squad is here.
34. *random screaming from all the girls*
35. Make jokes about how available we are? Check.
36. Talk about how much it would suck to have to buy a present for a significant other? Check.
37. Listen to one of the girls cry because she misses her ex? Check.
38. Time to start the second romantic comedy of the day.
39. Dang, I will always love Channing Tatum in "She's the Man."
40. So Viola can get a man after pretending to be a dude for the entirety of this movie, but I can't even get a guy to buy me froyo?
41. Maybe I should just text that cute guy I met out last week a simple, "Happy Valentine's Day," text. Maybe he'll take me to Sonic or something.
42. Here goes nothing. *sends text*
43. Why did I do that? I am so stupid.
44. He read it and didn't respond. Cool.
45. Maybe he got hit by a bus right after opening the text. That's likely, right?
46. *five minutes later* He responded by saying, "Thanks!"
47. That was a solid turn down.
48. Who needs him, anyway?
49. Look at that. It's midnight. I survived another Valentine's Day.
50. I'm making a pact with myself now. I will not spend the next Valentine's Day single.
