Who needs Valentine's Day anyway?

7 Reasons You Might Be Single On Valentine's Day

1. You have yet to find a significant other who fully appreciates your awesomeness.

It’s not your fault you are such a cool person. You’ve always been this funny and independent, and potential partners can’t handle your charm. You are young and still trying to find your place in this world, so focus on your own success for a while.

2. You love your friends so much that there’s no room for a partner at this moment.

You pack your days with dinners, movies, hikes, trips, and anything else you love to do with your best pals. There’s not enough room for a whole relationship as your love is already spread out among your favorite people.

3. You are too lazy to put effort into a relationship.

Relationships are emotionally, mentally, and physically exhausting. Chances are your new partner will convince you to go on runs to improve your health or whatever and you don’t need that kind of stress in your life.

4. The only person you are interested in right now is Ryan Gosling.

Finding a Valentine won’t be an issue next year when you’ve met Ryan Gosling and he falls in love with you at first sight. Then you will move to New Bern, North Carolina together and live out the rest of your days in a big, beautiful house quoting "The Notebook" to each other.

5. The minimum wage isn’t high enough yet to afford Valentine’s Day gifts.

Until you start getting paid more there’s no way you will buy chocolates for other people. If you are buying chocolates for someone, they are almost definitely for yourself. Want to get that special someone a Rollex watch or diamond earrings? Maybe next year pal. But that's assuming by this time next year you will be a millionaire, which could happen if Shark Tank invests in your idea for adult nap centers.

6. It’s too hard to compete with couples like John Krasinski and Emily Blunt or Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka.

They have already achieved perfection so what’s the point in trying to compete?

7. You enjoy having an excuse to stay in, drink wine, and watch a whole season of “The Mindy Project.”

You have no commitment to another person, so this is a perfect opportunity to do what you wish you could do every night. No relationship, no problem.

Stop worrying about whether or not you have someone to spend Valentine's Day with. You are a perfect human who will find love when you are good and ready. Once you find love, you will realize that Valentine's Day is a pointless holiday where you just have to spend money on another gift even though Christmas was a month and a half ago.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
