Mores for Gays video blog (Ep. 25): Surviving Valentine's

It's a rough week for the love sick and superstitious. But whether you can find a gift, or you can't get a date, there's no reason why your Valentine's Day should be considered a lost cause. You'll never think of Valentine's Day or the restaurant flower lady the same way again.

Romance

Very interesting, so many of us are so cynical when it comes to romance. I'm lucky that my partner breaks so many rules. He actually called me the day after our first date (none of that stupid "wait 3 days to a week". We buy each other flowers (though not chocolate) and we love romantic dinners. We're also lucky that we met 5 days after valentines day.

Daniel

It is so hard to believe that someone as cute and smart and funny as Daniel is single.

We need to hook you up with some other cute gays in NYC.  Maybe Ben Harvey or Dave Rubin over at Here! TV???  First we need to get you on Hot Gay Comics with Dave.  That's a good start.

No it's not!

Being Daniel doesn't HAVE to be in a couple! He has plenty of time. 

 

On the other hand he should have done this vlog dressed as cupid with just a diaper and wings! Droool!

I HATE IT!!!

I've always HATED V-Day. If you're not in a relationship you look like a loser, and if you are there's all this pressure to get your significance other to get you amazing stuff to brag about at work the following Monday. It makes me want to break something or somebody!! I mean, Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, New Years, and the other 360 days out of the year could be used to romance. I DONT NEED IT RUBBED IN MY FACE COME FEB 14TH after the endless commercialism I had to endure between Thanksgiving and Christmas!! I know I might just come off as a jealous b***h, but guess what, that's because I am. But, I still don't need extra weeks in my year of commercials and coworkers bragging about their perfect days come Monday 2/16 (even though most of them won't even be with the same person come next year)!! <End Rant>

BTW, loved the fresh new skit at the beginning explaining "Mores For Gays" with the cute guy and the hat. You should keep doing that cuz it was the cutest thing in the history of life! Another great and hilarious vlog Daniel! Keep em coming, and despite my disdain for the Holiday, I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT VALENTINES DAY (and that goes for everybody)!

Go out with friends tomorrow

One of the nicest Valentine's Days I ever had was in college, six months after I've been dumped by the love of my life.  I should've been devastated, but it actually was OK, as I went to dinner with 2 great friends, and we proceeded to get VERY intoxicated and enjoyed a fantastic meal.  All night we kept toasting "To friendship...the love that lasts!"  I don't remember much of the walk home, but I remember how much fun that meal was, and how grateful I was to have them.

So to any and all single folks, call up some of your best single buds and go paint the town red!  Don't put any energy on cruising or looking for someone, just have fun and be grateful for each other--no reason you can't say "I love you" and give a hug to a great friend.  And if the universe happens to respond to all the love-energy you're putting out...well, that's just frosting on the cake.  :)
