This is a thread devoted to Valentine's Day horror stories, botched attempts at love, failed romance, bad luck, and the like.

...and while I doubt ANYONE would be able to beat mine unfortunately, I think in preparation for the big day we should have a lovely nostalgia party of past Valentine's Day misery.

Come on then, out with your story.
And I started going out with the most amazing girl a year to today, the 14th. Unfortunately, we broke up in November. But it was very good while it lasted.

I've never actually celebrated Valentine's day. My SO and I were going to a movie, but he cancelled due to a shift at work, so I'm going out with my best girlfriend instead. We're going to dress up and go out for dinner, and bemoan our situations. It won't be bitter or spiteful at all. ;)

Edit: Actually, I shouldn't say that with a wink. We're going to have a good time because we love each other, and boys be damned. But it'll be fun. :)

It sucks. It hurts. Always. :(

On the up side, it's only one day long.....

although mines probably nothing...
the girl that i really like and is also one of my best friend, i spent so much time trying to get her to frigan like me, and she ended up going out with my other friend who did'nt even really like her. oh and the, wonderful fucking thing is, its happening all over again with!:mad:

Come on then, out with your story.

...my 17 and 21 year old cousins died in a head on collision...

o.O

Anyhow...on with the stories of failed romance!

Is it horrible that this will be the first ever Valentines I could be seeing someone but I'm not? Maybe on my part :D

Nah, I hate Valentine's day. The girl I'm sort of seeing might like it, although I really wouldn't peg her as a romantic sort and she's doing stuff with horses all day tomorrow (yep, that's right. You heard me) so I couldn't see her anyway.

Go me.

One time i almost gave a girl flowers, i thought better of it, i'm sure the rubbish bin appreciated them though.

I got dumped on valentines day a few years ago, but I'm over it now.


*sob*
hold me

My first girlfriend dumped me on Valentine's Day. I don't really mind because the guy she went out with after was really nice and I kinda became friends with him... Oh, and while dating him she slowly changed from a nice, sweet person into (about two years later) a coke-fueled sleaze-bitch with a raging superiority complex.

On a happier note two years later I asked out the girl who all since have had to live up to.

Romantic things with horses? *snicker*

For some reason, my first guess for what 'SO' stood for was 'Superior Officer'.

Now this is a good thread! All about how shitty this shallow otherwise sappy hokum filled commercial "holiday" is. I mean, how can you call it a 'holiday' and celebrate it if we don't even get the damn day off.
