It's weird, but of all the holidays it's probably the worst one for being single to me for some reason... Especially if you aren't doing anything tonight. I have a party I'm invited to, I might go to alleviate this feeling lol... Anyone else agree or think other holidays are worse?
I've never had a date for NYE and I'm sick tonight, so I'll be spending it home alone. There is someone I'm sort of interested in, so it would've at least been nice to hear from him, but I probably won't.
New Year's Eve is one of the few holidays for adults, for personal enjoyment, for bawdy toasts and sobbing confessions and casual embracing of persons whom one shall never again meet. In contrast, it's Thanksgiving and Christmas that are the bedrock "family" holidays, where everyone's a parent or a child, where relatives shunt aside all differences and all non-relatives are just shunted aside. New Year's Eve is forward-looking. Thanksgiving and Christmas are backwards-looking. New Year's Eve is the best time to weave and warble plans for better holidays ahead!
And as our fragile little blue ball rotates Eastward and brings with darkness' onslaught time for yet another year, Ohio Peasant offers this: that all of us, whether neurotic or mellow, adequately-coupled or overwrought by febrile yearning for a Better or a New, make progress towards our goals, and so align our wishes with our wherewithal, that we don't disappoint ourselves, or fall too short of honoring our better natures!

Single (divorced) here on NYE. Even when I was married, we argued more often than not, so it was like being alone anyway.
A friend asked me to come to her house for a drink, but there are already gonna be drunks on the road. And I told her, if I'm gonna have even one drink, I'm NOT gonna drive. End of story! I've never had a DUI in my life, and I'm seeing to it that I never will!!!

Haven't your heard that you're an "amateur" if you go out on NYE and fight the crowds and pay inflated prices for drinks and food?

Valentine's Day is another difficult day to be single on.
I want to be alone but my gf won't allow it...
