Guest littlprincess Posted February 14 Report Posted February 14 (edited) Hi to everyone reading and welcome! This is my first time writing a “blog” in the community so please forgive any spelling mistakes or/and poor organization of the topics. Without further ado, please enjoy reading and I hope it helps 🎀𓂃 ࣪˖ ˚₊˚ ‿︵‿︵‿︵୨୧ · · ♡ · · ୨୧‿︵‿︵‿︵ ˚₊˚ ‿︵‿︵‿︵୨୧ · · ♡ · · ୨୧‿︵‿︵‿︵ ˚₊˚ ‿︵‿ Valentine's ay gets celebrated every February 14th (at least in western countries) and I've seen a lot of people not only in the ddlg community but outside it struggle with spending special festive days like this one alone. I understand why some littles/middles and daddies might fear these festivities, however Valentine’s day goes beyond romantic love to a partner, love means understanding, compassion, friendship ˙𖠋𖠋𖠋 , admiration and hope for every living being in the world. That being said, it’s important to recognize that the purest form of love will always come from what we nourish inside our own hearts for ourselves❤️🩹 ; it’s the ideas that we allow ourselves to have and how much care we have with what we introduce into ourselves…whether it's food, information, hobbies or even social relationships. If you are having rough times I would highly advise you not to rush into other people's arms but your own, tough times require you to connect with your inner and innocent child to reflect on the things that are hurting us so we can change them 🫂. Not only are we talking about littles/middles but daddies and mommies too, despite assigning dominant and caregiver nature to daddies and mommies it's sad to see they are left behind when it comes to their own needs for affection and self-love. It is important for us littles and middles to be able to return the same kind of reassurance and special gifts from our hearts to the ones who always care for us unconditionally so take a moment if able to make something sweet for that someone special, even our dearest friends, to cheer them up this Valentine’s Day!! 💗✨ Now for the people who are spending this day on their own, I know how sad it can feel to be alone, to look around just to see many couples and friends sharing moments together. Being alone doesn’t have to turn into isolation and neglect of yourself. That is why I took some time to write this blog with recommendations for activities you can do on your own or with friends. PD: I would like to add that these activities are not only intended for littles or middles, anyone who is interested should try them without fear of feeling judged. ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ ︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹ Moving on with the activities list I’ve divided them into solo online and offline activities, activities you can do with friends and ones you could do in case you already have someone special with you!

WizardofOSS Posted February 14 Report Posted February 14 That's an awesome post!! Thank you!! It's very thoughtful of you to think of others who may be struggling today. There's so many lonely people, it's honestly heartbreaking if we stop to think of it. However, we always celebrate when they find what they are looking for, but we often forget the lonely struggles we all take to find them. Even though it feels sad now, it'll get better. Just believe it and keep looking. It's OK not to be OK. It's what community and friends are for.

NR_Daddy Posted February 14 Report Posted February 14 (edited) This is a very selfless post. Thinking of how others might feel, and putting the effort into coming up with ways to help them, and then taking the time to write it all out is amazing and you should be proud of yourself for doing that. Everyone has their own ways of dealing with being lonely on a day like today. For me it's something other people are doing and it doesn't really affect me. What I would say to anyone who might be suffering, is that they need to fill their time rather than sit there and dwell on things. Distract yourself with games online and talk to people. Get something done at home so there is a sense of achievement. Dont sit there and contemplate too much. It's not helpful. Edited February 14 by NR_Daddy
