Friday the 13th today, Valentine's Day tomorrow: seems like a perfect opportunity for anonymous comments!

Have at it, chaps, but keep it kind.

I feel really despondent about my chances of ever having a decent, long-term relationship. Most of the time, I'm happily single and really like my life, but every now and again, that horrible lonely feeling rears up, especially at this time of year. It sucks. I don't want to be the person tomorrow eating crap and watching bad films and feeling sorry for myself, but I know it's going to happen.

It doesn't help that I really like a guy and I have no idea if he likes me and no idea about the best way to ask him out. (It doesn't help that I know him professionally.) I've never asked anyone out in my life! Waiting for the true and tried British "Let's get drunk in a pub and snog" really isn't ideal.

This turned into a mega-whinge, sorry.

Whinge away! And I sympathise: it can be very difficult to make the first move with someone if you're past the "get blind drunk and Do It" phase. I was very angsty about this in my last bout of singleness, but them Tom and I did get together like that, even though we're supposed to be more mature.

ZOMG did I write this comment? I am not British, but...

Wait, did I write this comment? Because this was the thought process I had.

Buck up, anon. You don't need to feel so bad, there's some great films out there.
