You may be depressed already and have been for some time and you may not have realized it yet. You sound to me like your zeal for life is very low. That is a symptom of depression. Do you sleep too much or not eat even if you're hungry? There are several warning signs of Depression and a lot of us don't realize them. You're detached and that tells me perhaps you are afraid of getting close to people and of special occassions because you don't want to be hurt or disappointed. I would seek counseling if I were you. There's no shame in it and it doesn't mean your "mental" or that you'll be doing thorazine and weaving baskets, it means there is a chemical imbalance in your system/brain. Millions of people suffer from depression and there are good treatments with relatively few side affects. You may only need counseling. You are losing out on life, Honey and the people that love you will understand. Talk to them! Let them know that you're considering treatment and I'm sure they'll support you and don't let your anxiety get the best of you. Identify the problem, take steps to solve it. Good luck, and have a Happy, Happy Valentine's Day for once! =)

I am going through the same deal, except I am no where close to the love part yet. It is difficult to lay yourself out on a line when your not certain they feel the same. I am beginning to understand you just have to take that plunge if you care enough that it worries you and your ready to express it. I need to take my own advice.

I'm single and I had a great V day. I even bought myself a DQ ice cream cake and cooked a good dinner. But it does help that i still have single friends to share it with.\nThere was an article today about how japan women resent V day because they have to buy men candy and the men don't return the favor.

It depends on the day of the week, the time of month or if your close to valentines or christmas etc.\nBeing single is ok, I am completely independant, am not answerable to anyone and very rarely disappointed.\nBut that doesn't stop me feeling lonely when I'm sat in on my own, sadly answering question after question on here... \nI think it would be nice to find companionship, but then I meet someone and before it develops into a relationship it gets all heavy or complicated and think I can do without the hassle.. \nI have plenty of friends and will keep it that way until someone totally special comes my way.\nNot getting into something on the premise I am lonely, if I did that, I could let any kind of scumbag into my life, and they would probably leave it just as quickly having stripped me of my confidence. I am not prepared to let that happen.

i can totally relate. i am the only single girl in a group of 10 girlfriends-they're all in long-term relationships and getting married. i haven't had a boyfriend in 2 years, and in the past i've had my share of no-so-great men. but i'm happier alone than unhappy. we just have to realize that we are still young-we still have lots ahead of us and we will find that 4% of good men in this world to be good company with:)\n\nps i look at half of the relationships my girlfriends have and i'd rather cut off my foot than be in some of their positions, anyway. some are stuck with emotionally abusive/selfish men, selfish lovers, drinkers, or just herpes and scared to move onto another relationship because of fear of rejection (woo hoo! yeah, i'm sure your man isn't cheating, the disease just showed up!)... you name it.\n\ni'm sorry about your divorce and about how one man found it appropriate to break it off with you in a pretty cowardly way. i think time for you will wear things off a bit.. hang in there! you know you will end up with someone who is GOOD for you\n\ngod bless

I am in the same boat as you, and I have the exact same feelings. I think that we have this problem because people around us are dating, and we're not so we feel left out. Just try to have fun with your friends, like I do. You'll stop wondering about your romantic future. Who knows...maybe you'll see him that night. Just make sure that isn't the only goals to your plan.

I went on dates feeling like you do and to my surprise wound up falling hard?????????????????  What is the problem here?  You are getting out of the house!  Make the most of it.  If you go tomorrow thinking you won't have a good time, for sure you won't.  Why not go into this looking at it as having a night out and making the best of it.  How do YOU know you won't have a good time? You might just be surprised.  Also consider this.......when you are out there, you might just run into your real soulmate.  They can turn up in any place at any time, and when you least expect it.

The key is to accept the fact you are single, and not be bothered by it. \nLet other things make you busy, like work or family or friends.. love will come along without you'd even notice. \nBeing single is not something bad, it's not something you need to learn how to handle.. It's temp situation, don't let it bother you too much.

If you have to ask, you know the answer.\nGive yourself a bit of time, there's nothing wrong with being single and there is a lot wrong with going from one man to another willy nilly just to avoid being alone.\nEspecially since your commitment level is already not the deepest.... I mean, really, how much are you really willing to invest if you give up on a guy you were prepared to marry as soon as trouble hits?\nBe solo a while, hang out with friends, date casually, when you're ready for a real relationship, you'll know.

We are actually having Valentine's week! (actually everyday with my hubby is Valentine's Day) We thought we would spread it out, howver. We aren't having a lovely dinner until Friday night for example. I am going to do something special for my hubby every day. He does so much for me all of the time. If it is nice, we would love to play golf this next weekend...but who knows about the weather. In any case, we will have a great week together!

No I am not going out tonight. I am trying to get in touch with a certain gentleman but for some reason I always miss him.  Maybe I'll get lucky tonight. ;)
