Dear Valentine, to survive mid-february, listen to this playlist.
It's the forced monogamy for me. Do we need an annual reminder of the fact that monogamous culture is status quo? There's no Valnetine for you this year as you just found out your partner has been going on multiple dates with other people you were unaware about.

An Anti-Valentine's Day: the Soundtrack
8:39 AM. Morning sunlight stabs your eyelids through the window, waking you up from your slumber. Still in a daze, you reach for your phone to get your morning dose of social media distraction. As your eyes meet your lock screen, however, you notice the date, and it dawns on you that today is no normal day...

Not a Love Story
Let’s face it. The concept of experiencing romantic true love is exciting and enchanting. And to be honest, love is the ultimate Universal language. If you think otherwise, you may just be lying to yourself. But if we’re discussing truth, we certainly cannot dismiss the fact that sometimes...most of the time...things just don’t work out with that “special someone”.

A Very Emo Valentine's Playlist
An Anti-Valentine’s Day play list can be inspired by many things or events. Unfortunately for me, my playlist is inspired by “the breakup” that really crushed me. Going through an intense break up, can really feel like the morning of a true loss. After all, it really is in many ways the death of what was, or what could have been.

Fuck You In Particular, Valentines Day.
Its a Sunday night bar pushing closing time, a bitter reminder of the inevitability of the blizzard outside. Spilled throughout the joint is a wide spectrum of Valentines playing out. A dry-humping couple; a young man with a rose in his breast pocket, frown on his face; singles, floating in the sea of the dance floor grab hold to each other like life preservers.

Your Ultimate Anti Valentines Track list
Valentine’s Day is the Day for lovers. The odds are that if you made your way to this article, you yourself may indeed be single, while on a holiday meant for non-single folks. I’m here to tell you that being a single person on Valentine’s Day is not necessarily a bad thing. You may not get those sweet nothings on a seemingly otherwise unimportant day, but you for sure will not be burdened by the reasons your relationship came to an end! That is what you call freedom my dear. Nevertheless, we still tend to beat ourselves up about it any way. I’m guilty at times myself. So here is a specially curated track list designed to guide your emotions during this solidarity. Here’s to all the ups and downs, and to better days ahead.

Anti-Valentine's Day OST
Is it sad that when I saw this challenge pop up, I already had a playlist ready to go to be posted? Valentine’s Day is a day I’ve never really cared about. Not in an edgy, anti-consumerism way, but simply just because it’s a day that doesn’t really resonate with me. It’s definitely one of those Marmite types of days - you either love it and spend the day romantically with your partner, or you hate it and spend the day wallowing in self-pity and anguish like myself.
