Tell them you are going to spend V Day on your own, by choice, and they will be like:

“You are not single coz no one loves you.” It only means you are ugly!

What the hell is wrong with me hanging with the person I love the most: Myself?!

*Going Hans style… SOLO!*

Well, this is what I tell everybody to look all cool, you know! Like see even Salman Khan is sexy… single, I mean! 😉

*I vouch to be taken only when Sallu bhai gets married!*

(That’s never gonna happen, is it?!)

But in my head, the thoughts are quite not what you imagine! Being the third wheel ain’t pretty and especially on the Godforsaken day in February when roses and chocolates are all around!
