With Valentine’s Day nearly a week away, there’s a lot of pressure to secure restaurant reservations, get the perfect gift so it arrives right on time and pull out all of the stops so that you and your bae slay on the ‘Gram.

As honest as the reasons might be, it’s nice to see that people have a sense of humor about their single relationship status!
