Valentine's Day is rapidly approaching.

And you want to shut out the world around you.

Because it seems like all your friends are in relationships.

Some are even married with kids.

And a few can't resist telling you how great the sex is.

You want to scream:

But you give up and go back to bed instead.

You chastise yourself for caring so much about this.

But you just can't help feeling lonely.

NOW STOP RIGHT THERE!

Stop obsessing about dating. You'll cross that road when you come to it.

Have a friend give you a hug, if you must.

Remember, you are special.

You don't need to act like Superman.

You don't have to be fancy.

You don't always have to come out on top.

One day you too will find someone you mesh with.

Then you will know romance.

And you will know passion.

And you will know love.
