I had to work too but before I left for work in the morning I left the customary chocolates on the laptop for my wife to find later when she woke up. She left a card for me on the laptop that I saw right away in the early morning hours. I made her a homemade one from the computer. It was another day for me too but I believe that for women Valentine's day can be meaningful.

Thanks very much for the word of encouragement.
I have to say though that of course, there are two sides to everything, and I can openly admit to be an equally (and at times, exceedingly) recalcitrant woman.
When I first came to CC, I was like many singles--disappointed, bitter, depressed, and anxiously praying to find THE ONE as soon as humanly possible.
But that, of course, was my whole issue. I was thinking in human terms (my own) rather than God's.
Over the years, God has helped me find a lot more peace, and I'm really grateful for CC and a place for us singles to gather. I think most singles will say the hardest part about being single is feeling alone and not having anyone to share their life with or talk to at the end of the day.
I know that cyberspace can never replace real life, but I truly believe it's a medium that we can all put to God's use. It's not the same as having someone there in person, but I know that for my own life, having a regular place to go with all kinds of discussions, interesting topics, and fascinating people sharing about their lives and experiences has made an enormous difference, and I hope it does for others as well.
This is why I spend so much time writing threads, and I hope others will as well. By giving each other questions and topics to talk about, it helps us to feel not so alone.

I've been single for about 10 years now and since that time haven't done a thing...until this year. I sent out 3 valentines: 1 to my best friend who knows me inside and out; 1 to my "adopted son" (a former co-worker who viewed me as a mentor and we developed a father/son relationship); and 1 to my own father who has stuck by side through thick and thin.
My "son" was amazed that I thought to send him anything - he's an amazing young man in his own right.
A few days later my father called while I was not available and left a heartfelt message saying that he was not expecting it - especially the thoughts the card conveyed. His voice was cracking as he talked. An incredible Christian man, my dad.
All that being said, to those who watched Titanic: I hope the fact that the boat sank didn't blindside you.

I had a great day even though I'm single. I did take my Momma out to her favorite place for dinner. She is still mourning the passing of my stepfather. They complimented one another nicely for over 20 years. There life together was like a never ending romance novel. She misses him dearly. A love like that is once in a lifetime. I hope I'm fortunate enough to experience it. It's so rare.

Hey Tabin,
That's a great idea for a thread--that topic comes up often here.
When people come up with an idea for a thread, I always encourage them to try writing them as well, because that creates an atmosphere where hopefully, everyone is writing threads and contributing to keep the forum alive.
If you have any questions about how the system works (when writing a thread), feel free to post any questions here!
