I Am Alone On Valentine's Day
I've always kind of hated Valentines Day. I've never been with someone on that day or any other day for that matter and really don't forsee that ever changing. I really don't even see the point of the day. It's not really a holiday, it's not celebrating anything really in particular. It was fun in elementary school when all we did was decorate shoe boxes and give everyone in class valentines. All holidays have always been kind of awful for me. I've never been particularly close friends with anyone. Every holiday at school people give gifts to their friends and are always talking about it. That never happened to me except when I had a friend give everyone chocolate bars. Even in college it hasn't gotten better.
A club I'm in did hold a Valentine's Day dance, and I went. Nobody really showed up and all I did was sort of step in place because I have no idea how to dance, until someone just took pity on me because he took class from my ballroom teacher. People said I looked nice, but I can't help thinking it was just because they felt sad for me since yeah, most people weren't there with anyone, but at least they had close friends and had been in relationships before. I went to another Valentine's Day dance for ballroom and I think that was even worse. I sat in the corner the whole time until someone took pity on me and he gave me a rose. I almost cried since nobody's ever really given me a gift outside of my birthday, that's just pathetic. And then his girlfriend and friends let me sit with them,again probably out of pity. I think I'm going to just avoid all holiday functions. All it does is remind me I have nobody to share any of these things with.
