Valentine's Day

If there is one holiday a year that strikes fear into the heart of every asexual person in the world, it would be Valentine's day. Maybe it is not exactly fear though, more like confusion. And maybe it does that to everyone, or maybe just me. But whatever the case and quantity of people affected, here I sit, February 11, very not knowing what to do. (This intro is very Grinch-like, "maybe his head wasn't screwed on just right, but whatever the reason, his heart or his shoes, he stood there on Christmas, hating the Whos.") It is something that gets to me nearly every day of my life, this conflicting of thoughts, but around this time of year, it's multiplied. No one wants to be alone, everyone wants someone that they can call "mine". But not everyone wants a relationship, sometimes you just want a really great friendship, someone that loves to spend time with you and is always there for you, but friends also have "real" relationships and other friends, and they can't be with you all the time. It's very....not understandable.
