Traditionally, February 14 marks Valentine’s Day, a day many couples look forward to each year. But what if you are in a not so great dating relationship, or are recently single. Are you still excited about the Valentine’s Day holiday? Many are now celebrating anti-Valentine’s Day or Singles Awareness Day. On this day, singles and unhappy couples take time to really hate on the entire idea of Valentine’s Day. While not what you would regularly do on Valentine’s Day, it is a different way to commemorate the day. Anything from anti Valentine’s Day quotes, sayings, songs, and of course, movies are highly sought after.
What exactly does Singles Awareness Day mean? If you look up the phrase in the Urban Dictionary you will find the following definition:
February 14 (valentine's day, of course, for those who are in a relationship) For those without a significant other, the advertisements, cards, flowers and attention given to this particular day make one acutely aware of one's lack of couplehood.
