"With my boyfriend at the time, after 4 years of relationship, our couple was really coming to an end... Our last Valentine's Day is the symbol of this love decrepitude... because we spent it... playing cards! Room temperature:0°! (Laughs)"Alice, 29
“That was 2 years ago. I was single and with my best friend we wanted to do an 'anti-Valentine's Day', by going to flirt in our usual bar. That night, he had organized a special evening, where we had to hang on our top a badge "Celib" or "Pris" distributed at the entrance. It was there, with my "Célib" badge, that I came across the one who had broken my heart a year before, and who was now "Taken". A little shame-humiliation-pain-trauma cocktail right in my face (laughs). (Anaïs, 29 years old)
"Simultaneous Gastro." Evening bent over in bed watching lousy movies on our computer. Chases to get to the toilet first. Pride:zero. Horror Valentine's Day... But somehow it made our relationship stronger! (Ju', 27)
"I got dumped one morning on February 14th. By text. After 3 years of relationship. (Cécile, 28)
"Absurd situation:with my boyfriend, we had talked so much about our first Valentine's Day that we put pressure on ourselves without realizing it! In the end, we wanted everything to be too perfect, we were very stressed and we were torn over the choice of restaurant! But hey, after a huge argument, we still made up the next day in bed… (laughs). (Flo, 29)
"Every year for the past 4 years that I've been single. And each time it's worse... Will I end up devoured by my cat? (Melanie, 28)
“I had been dating a guy for 4 months that I was not in love with. Seeing Valentine's Day approaching, I thought the most honest thing would be to leave him before, not just after getting the presents. What I have done. Except that as Valentine's Day was close, February 14, he had not had time to digest the breakup. And I could see that in addition to being a flabby and uninteresting guy, he was a psychopath, since he spent the day writing insulting texts to me! (Laurie, 32)
"I did the andouille... As I was alone, I stalked my ex on Facebook, the one I loved the most in the world, who had dumped me... 6 years ago! We're not even "friends" but his account is open, so I got to see pictures of him...with his new, gorgeous girlfriend! And there, without doing it on purpose, I clicked "like". Flagrant offense of stalking. Supreme shame. (Claire, 31)
“Appendicitis…Night at the hospital, without my boyfriend (at work), completely high. (Lucie, 28)
“I had been dumped by the one I thought was the love of my life three weeks before… My heart was still bleeding a lot. So I spent the evening watching love movies on TV crying all the tears in my body. Masochism, hello! (Clo’, 34 years old)
