Even more lonely now

At least they're thinking about you. But decline, let them have their day :)

Psh, go for it. Skip out before dessert so they can enjoy some of their dinner alone and head to the bar. Think of the free food!

It's nice that they're thinking about you, but if I was in your position, I would decline the invitation and let them have their date.

Uh it's sweet but I'd rather be miserable at home. That way I'd give them alone time too. I'd feel way worse if I went too. Good luck.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that. It's the day of love, they love you too & it's sweet that they thought of you.

I don't know if it's cute that your parents invited you out on Valentine because you were alone or sad that your parents invited you on Valentine because you were alone.

Don't worry OP. Valentine's day has become a Hallmark holiday and everything is overpriced anyway, that's why my husband and I never celebrate it. You have 365 days in the year to fall in love and celebrate your relationship, not just one.
