Contrary to common perception, single people don’t tend to wallow around in their PJs eating ice-cream (or if they do, it’s not *because* they’re single). But if ever there was an occasion to break out the Ben and Jerry’s, it’s the countdown to Valentine’s Day.<\/p>\n

This annual festival of mass-produced romance<\/del>\u00a0love is pretty much guaranteed to make single people feel bad about themselves. Everywhere you go, garish hearts and sappy sentiments follow, in a consumerist frenzy that seems entirely blind to the fact that a.) Many people are genuinely happier alone<\/a> and b.) a teddy bear bearing the slogan “Be Mine” is hardly the key to lust-fuelled passion in any case.<\/p>\n

As for being alone on V-Day itself, it’s surely better than simpering over a plate of underdone spaghetti, with the weight of expectation looming unbearably large between you and your amour<\/em>\u00a0(it’s no coincidence that many couples fight<\/a> on this day of ultimate romantic pressure).<\/p>\n

So, if you feel as cynical as we do about the approach of cupid’s calendar highlight, take heart in our pick of classic anti-Valentine’s cards. From the heartwarming to the hilarious, these on-point greetings are everything you need to reclaim your single life in style:<\/p>\n
