Valentine's Day: A Playlist

source

Dearest Readers,

I'm going to be really honest with you right here and now. I don't have a Valentine... I haven't had one since my Sophomore year in High School. That year was awesome as far as Valentine's Day goes. He asked me out two days before and then on Valentine's Day bought me 12 roses AND a HUGE teddy bear. Seriously, going to be hard to top that. ;)
But, since then my life has been devoid of suitors on V-day.

OH MY GOODNESS, NOT TRUE!!!

Okay, I lied, so much for being really honest huh?! I did have one other awesome Valentine's Day a couple of years back. I met up with this guy I was casually seeing and we went to Ruby's in Oceanside on the pier and just hung out. Of course his friend was with us but seriously, it was still awesome, low key, fun, etc. So, I take it back, I've had two awesome (male) valentines.

But getting back to my point. I get a little bitter around this "holiday" and it's not because I think it's a Hallmark Holiday or anything like that. Believe me, if I had a significant or even not that significant other I'd be jumping for joy. But alas I don't and seeing people get all mushy and such makes me heart go a little black.

I want that to change! I figure in order for me to deserve another good Valentine's Day in the future I have to shed this bitterness and have fun.

So here goes, in honor of Valentine's Day I put together a playlist of songs that just make me smile. They are usually the ones I go to when I have a crush or start dating someone I quite like.

Enjoy!
