Start your Love Campaign

So if you are anti Christmas there is an expression for that. It is bah humbug! How about if you are anti Valentine's Day? No expression. Love is great. Valentine's Day is not. It is okay at best. There should be an expression for those that are anti Valentine's Day.

I am not a lover of Valentine's Day. I know many people that weep on Valentine's Day because they are alone. How can a holiday that is about a good thing love end up making so many people feel bad? Valentine's Day reminds the loveless that they are without love.

Valentine's Day is so in your face. The cards, the ads, the giddy people. It is especially difficult for shy people. It is especially difficult for shy people that are longing for someone special.

My words of wisdom for shy people is to think of Valentine's Day as a bad holiday. Do not think of yourself as a needy person. Do not think of yourself as a person that is lacking. Just understand that this year Valentine's Day will not be your top holiday. If you want it to be a top holiday next year start now. Devise a campaign to find love.

Here is my idea for your love campaign. Check out some online dating sites and put up your profile. Be honest and include that you are a shy person. Start online chatting with some people that interest you. Then take the plunge and meet them. Do this in earnest like you are campaigning for a lover.

Let me know how this goes.
