How To Overcome The Loneliness of Valentine’s Day
Tomorrow as I’m sure you know is Valentines Day.
This holiday can be quite difficult to deal with when you’re alone.
You can’t help but pass colorful storefront windows loaded with Valentine’s Day ideas and gifts.
You find your email box loaded with Open Table offers to wine and dine you and the sweetheart you wish you had.
Everywhere you look, it seems like happy couples are holding hands and kissing.
The huge emphasis on Valentine’s Day love can feel so intense that not only do you feel lonely on this day, but you may also feel left out of something that seems to be universally happening for everyone else.
When I was single, I remember this feeling of being left out really surprising me.
I was supposed to be one of those women who felt okay on my own. Yet, I was struggling.
I knew if I wanted to “feel the love” of Valentine’s Day, I was going to have to make it happen by doing something really nice for myself.
The younger generation has embraced this wonderful idea.
They call it “Galentine’s Day,” where you celebrate all the women you love, especially yourself.
I didn’t know I was part of a trend back when I was single. I just wanted to take care of myself that day so I didn’t feel so left out of the party.
I decided to really pamper myself. I had dinner delivered from one of my favorite restaurants.
While waiting, I poured a glass of my favorite wine and caught up on some of my favorite TV shows.
After dinner, I filled my bathtub with hot water and my favorite bubble bath.
I’d luxuriously soak and read a book I’d been meaning to get to for a while.
By the time I was done with all of this pampering, I was feeling pretty good about myself.
Yet, I really didn’t want to spend another Valentine’s day alone so I headed to my computer to look for a quality man of my own.
Just so you know, even men can feel the sadness of being alone on Valentine’s Day and you’ll probably find quite a few hanging out at your favorite online dating site just waiting for you this week!
Unless you want a repeat of spending the evening alone next Valentine’s Day, now is the time for getting out of your comfort zone by putting your picture and profile online to start looking for a great guy.

Julie had more than 200 messages in the first week with her new profile!
Lisa, Wow! What a difference. Before we worked together I was getting a handful of messages a day, but after we polished my profile the response was, well, overwhelming. More than 200 messages in the first week! I had to hide one of the two profiles just to slow it down to a level I could keep up with… and the men who I am meeting are such a better fit for me. The whole process… from our first phone call to my most recent date… has been so much fun. Thank you. 2017 is going to be amazing! Julie, California

How wonderful that the writer had 200 replies. Wonder where she lived. Where I live the pictures of men all look like they are ready to go walk the dog. It sure is a good tip on how you dress and act, pictures with your fish and car. i KNOW you are not for me and that is what I get here. MANY do not even post a picture..REALLY.. you see me why can i not see you. men need to step it up. I paid good money for POF and after a week I am done. DO NOT want to meet men that live 3000 miles away. Can’t move so I am stuck!
