Frankly, as a single person who hasn't been in a relationship in almost ten years, I believe that the sole purpose of Valentines Day is so the people who are in relationships and/or who are getting some regularly can rub it in the faces of those of us who aren't. (Me? Bitter and cynical? How can you tell?)
Last year on Valentine's Day, I watched a Discovery Channel special on dinosaur sex (I'm not making this up; you can find the posts from a year ago where I talk about it around here and/or in the Arkansas forums). This year, I'm working late, sleeping alone, and not seeing any providers. Pretty much like every other night of the year.
Cheers,
