"desserts for one" news and stories

If you happen to be single on Valentine’s Day, there is no reason to feel blue. After all, it’s only one day a year that the media lets us know that we are really supposed to be part of a couple. It’s worse if you’re a woman, of course. The message to men seems to be to celebrate the fact that they’re not “obligated” to take someone of to dinner and ply her with chocolates and flowers. Women, on the other hand, are expected to eat ice cream and chips by the pound and cry while watching sappy movies.

Single or not, a sappy movie from time to time is not a bad thing, but I definitely take issue with the ice cream and chips side of the equation. If you want to meet someone, eating ice cream in front of the television is not the way to go about it. And besides, there are much better things that you can be eating, even if you’re alone, whether you are a guy or a gal.
