Today, I'm 26-year-old woman and I've never had a date for Valentine's Day, never been on a date, or received flowers. This pandemic makes me think I never will. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I'm 20 years old and never been kissed. FML
Today, I'm nearly 30 years-old, and not only am I still a virgin, I've never even had my first kiss. FML
Today, I'm 22 year-old woman, and my entire family thinks something is wrong with me because I've never been in a relationship. I'm starting to believe them. FML
Today, I'm a 46 year-old woman who hates online dating, and who is now single again. FML
Today, I realized I will never find love again. I broke down after I finally realized that no woman will love me like I used to be loved. I have not dated anyone for almost 10 years. I try to go on dates, to no avail. I will forever be alone and I will forever be tortured by my loneliness. FML
Today, my boss asked me if I could work on Valentine's Day because there was no chance of me having a date. She's right. FML
Today, I'm 36 and I got told the reason I've never been on a date is because everyone I've asked on a date is too pretty for me and that I needed to look for ugly women. FML
Today, It's Valentine's Day. I'm single and in college, where everyone is posting their S.O.s and going on dates. I'm intensely introverted and shy, and I have a crush but I'm way too scared to ever tell him, and I'm going to spend my evening alone studying organic chemistry. Honestly, I just feel nerdy and lonely. FML
Today, I deleted all of my dating apps because apparently something is wrong with me. I've been on 20 different dates this year and nothing has come out of it. I feel like I have the plague and no one wants to be near me. FML
Today, it's now exactly one year until I turn 30 and I’ve never been with a woman before. I know that it’s over for me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Don't fall into the trap of feeling bad that you're single. You don't NEED to have a boyfriend or husband; not on Valentine's Day, not on any day. Please don't feel that you've "fallen behind" because you're not a married woman :(

No no no no. Don't ever think that! Holy cow! You are so very young yet! Yes, you are. Don't worry about him yet. Go, live, and enjoy your life. Do things that make you happy, not alone things but get a paddle board, learn how to- something, rock climb, whatever. The point is is that men do do things. They get out and DO! And while you are being you and doing things one of them will notice you. You who is happy and confident and enjoying things. I was 30 before I found my Mr. Right. Been through others but...when I least expected him....

I'll be your Valentine this year. Sorry we can't go out on a date because of the pandemic. And sorry I can't get you flowers. I can get you a Bulb...asaur.

You will find love, forget about the stupid holiday. I didn't have "Valentine's" (don't celebrate) until my husband ...so 28yrs old. **** Valentine's Day! All it does is make the single people depressed\annoyed and the people in relationships stress\$$ trying to make it a perfect day. You will find the one for you and until then you have many of us FML'rs willing to be your Valentine's ❤️

Feeling like you "need" someone is the worst way to actually get someone.

If you have to, lower your standards. There's wayyyyy to many good people in this cruel place we call home who are only chasing the wrong ones by gluttony.

Wait what ? Is that a new way of saying "Girls only are after men who are out of their league instead of looking at the nice guys"?

The pandemic will eventually be over, probably in a year or less from now. Believe me there are plenty of guys and gals feeling lonely and horny out there. There will be a lot of mingling after this is over! You just need to get though this now. Stay safe and healthy. Don’t let the calendar and greeting card and candy companies and restaurants tell you how you are supposed to feel.

I think one thing we all agree on is that 2020 and 2021 has been rough on everybody. I'm sorry that your love life hasnt fell into place yet. It will, hold on, it will be worth the wait.

Hi there! I just want to say that I am the same: 26 years old, never had a boyfriend. I admit there was a time I thought maybe there was something wrong with me. And then looking around, I realised that being single is not a bad thing at all. Just being with someone does not guarantee hapiness. Don't ever feel bad because you are single! There is nothing wrong with that. Do things you like, at your own pace. Also the nice thing about Valentine's Day is that chocolates are on sales. And you don't have to share them with anyone :)
