Since I spend my workday coming up with social media concepts, I figured I would help you single folks with a handful of social media updates for February 14, 2013.
For the most part, I want to see a little bit of variety on Facebook and Twitter this year.
Posts such as "THIS HOLIDAY WAS CREATED BY HALLMARK" or hearing every last detail of your date - including the cut and temperature of your steak - are getting a little old.
Nobody cares that you are eating lobster, just as nobody cares when I eat an entire pizza by myself after analyzing my love life.
Additionally, I look forward to the "72 Amazing Pictures Of Your Shit That Look Like Hearts" or "22 Tumors That Look Like Saint Valentine" posts that most likely will appear a day or two before Valentine's Day on BuzzFeed.
Idea One:
Throughout the day, tweet reasons why you think you are single, such as:
"Reason #7: I was cheated on once, now I can never get over it and have a real relationship!"
"Reason #18: I think I'm better than everyone in this city ... Why can't I live in NYC or LA?"
"Reason #23: I've had a fuck buddy for 3 years and think 2013 will be the year to settle down!"

Idea Two:
Send me an anonymous letter that I will post on Valentine's Day describing your crush and why you like them.
I think it would be cute and who knows ... maybe they'll see it?
PS - Same-sex marriage is only recognized in a handful of US states.
Let's keep working to end this by Valentine's Day 2014.
