Depressing Valentine's Day Card Quotes

Valentine's Day is lurching ever closer, it's soaking jet-black hair draped over it's brow to conceal the terrible monster hidden beneath. As a miserable single guy who absolutely detests social ceremony, it's a day that only serves to make me more miserabler. So, in the spirit of giving myself some company, I came up with some text for depressingly truthful Valentine's Day cards. I thought they were kinda funny when I wrote them, but, rereading them, I think I may have overshot the "depressing" mark a little...

Still, feel free to use these on any cards you may feel inclined to give to people you hate, with the caveat that copyright law says I can hunt you down and take your stomach out with a spatula if you try to distribute them for profit.

Enjoy!

"Your warmth cascades over me like heat from a beating desert sun. Your passion sings louder than a sea of volcanoes vomiting in sequence and your love crushes me like a star falling from the heavens. I know you hate soaring metaphors, but I used them to avoid hurting your feelings because I cannot keep these complaints to myself anymore. Also, please stop making those mouth noises when we're watching TV."

"I'm pretty sure we'll be alright, eventually."

"I often think, 'this is a love that will last forever.' Today is one of those days!"
