It's that time of year again: Happy Singles Awareness Day... Yeah, Valentines Day is gonna be great this year, said every single person on the face of the earth. Just kidding--it's awful. It's always going to be awful if you're single and still trying to forget about the one you "loved"—but here are some reasons that makes it the best awful time of the year.

1. Think of the calories you have saved

You have just saved yourself hundreds of calories just by not receiving chocolate/candy from your significant other. Congratulations.

2. More calories averted

Chances are you and your significant other would be going out to dinner to show off your gross affection in public. Going out to dinner always means "more calories than you wanted to consume." By being single, you have saved yourself at least a thousand calories now. Who's the real winner now?

3. No flowers

You wanted someone to get you flowers? Flowers are nice and all, but guess what... Flowers die. Dead flowers are ugly and who the hell wants that?

4. No cute stuffed animals

You're how old and you want some guy to buy you a stuffed bear with a heart attached to it? You're joking... Where do you plan on keeping that? That shit takes up room and you'll probably just end up throwing it out within the year. No one keeps that garbage.

5. You don't have to buy condoms

Chances are you don't want to get knocked up just yet and buying condoms is always an awkward experience, even in self-checkout. Plus, they're expensive! Well, thanks to you being single, you don't have to.

6. You can binge-watch Netflix

You can binge-watch Netflix by yourself. You don't have to find something you both like and you don't have to attend an awkward "Netflix and Chill" hangout. This "Netflix and Chill" is with you and your laptop. No condoms needed.

8. The only man you need in your life is cheap alcohol

He knows what you're going through and he wants you to know it's gonna be OK. There is nothing quite like this bottom-shelf vodka. It turns any day into a good day. At $11 per handle, one cannot find a better deal. One shot and you'll forget that you are nearly drinking rubbing alcohol.

9. Cheap hard liquor isn't your thing?

That's okay. This is exactly why Two Buck Chuck's spirit will live forever.

10. Think of the money you'll save

Not having a Valentine means that you don't have to spend money on anyone. You can either save that or spend it on yourself. You do you.

11. Be independent

Just because you're alone doesn't mean that you can't be happy. Be an independent person and stop hating yourself because you haven't found your significant other. I highly doubt you will be single forever and deep down you probably feel the same.
