WORST VALENTINE’S DAY EVER

Not all Valentine’s Day stories are all hearts and flowers. Reddit asked, “What was your worst Valentine’s Day ever?” Some of the responses:
– “My then-boyfriend did not make reservations, and every place had a long wait. We ended up at Denny’s.”
– “I was dating a guy and we had plans for Valentine’s Day. I hadn’t heard from him all day, so I checked out his Facebook. There was a photo of him and another girl out at a V-Day dinner that evening.”
– “Valentine’s Day, my husband gave me one of those giant peanut butter cups. The next day when I came home to discover he had eaten the entire peanut butter cup. He’s now my ex-husband.”
– “I had a first date planned with a guy I was talking to on a dating app. It just happened to be on Valentine’s Day. I showed up at the restaurant and he wasn’t there. He messaged me a few days later saying that V-Day was the first anniversary of his ex-girlfriend breaking up with him and he had posted something on Facebook that made his friends nervous. Someone called the police and he had been taken to the psychiatric hospital.”
– “My dad had a stroke on Valentine’s Day and we spent the day in the ER with a naked guy handcuffed to a gurney in the hallway outside the room my dad was moved into.”
– “I realized that the Valentine’s Day cards I had been receiving from my secret admirer for years were from my parents.”
