I guess if Saint Valentine would have known how much stressful the holiday named in his honor would be he had not wished it to be celebrated at all.  At the end of the day, any holiday is intended to bring joy and good emotions, which is more than I can say about Valentine’s Day.

It causes the distress to both lonely people and those being in couples. Single men and women have no loved one to show their love while on the 14th of February everyone is supposed to feel loving. Those who have their second halves are under pressure, too because they are trying their best to meet expectations of their partners, not to disappoint them and arrange an ideal celebration of Valentine’s Day. Let’s agree that nobody wants a partner looking like an exhausted marathon runner even provided that everything was on a top level.



Valentine’s Day is round the corner. The time is to think of how not to fall into the trap of stress and make the best of this holiday it whether you have a partner of not. Let’s look the ways to deal with stress single people feel. Then read on about the couples.
  • Keep in mind that all this fuss and excitement over February, 14 is quite artificial and theatrical. It is more about selling than loving. That’s why try to disregard your commotion of the spirits.
  • If you are single that does not mean you have no people to show your love to. Your parents, children and friends are those who love you and you love too. Why not to remind them of that?
