Today, I was watching my 2-year-old sister in the bathtub. As she was splashing, she stopped, and pointed at the "owie" on my head. I told her it was okay, and that it was just a pimple. She said, "Wow, you have a lot of pimples!" FML

Today, I have been dating an incredibly gorgeous woman. She had a poor self image and after the longest time, I finally convinced her to seek counselling to help her self esteem. It worked. So well in fact that she just broke up with me because she "finally realized she could do so much better" FML

Today, I went to the coffee shop for my usual morning latte before class. When I got my drink, I asked again to make sure it was soy. The barista assured me it was. It wasn't. I'm ridiculously lactose intolerant and just spent six hours throwing up because she was too lazy to correct her mistake. FML

In a way it's good that you don't need to take part in this tradition. It's transformed from something that celebrates a saint, to something that has every single retail managers' mouths watering. Age means nothing, you will find someone. In the meantime just know that relationships work when you love someone 365 days a year, not just 1. Don't let all of these flowery advertisements get you down or tell you otherwise. You have a great mother who loves you a lot.
