That's what I put together earlier today. And it sucks.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, that occurred to me this afternoon, how awful the timing is for you Maria (not that there's ever a good time, but...)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
hardly superficial Maria.
like -t, I was thinking the same thing about your birthday. forgetting about February 14th. I had forgotten what day it was until around noon.

Oh honey. I knew that. I just hadn't put it together. That really fucking sucks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Shit Maria, I was just working that out. I'm so sorry. I hope this can subside to a dull roar for you as soon as possible, and V Day at least can be a day of reminiscence rather than full blown sorrow.
I don't like being single
And being disappointed or upset because you haven't achieved something you value is perfectly...expectable? Reasonable? Everything like that. Thinking you're a bad person because you haven't achieved something you value is...well, knowing it's a logical flaw isn't going to make the pain go away. But there's no correlation between "good person" and "in a relationship". Hitler was a vegetariansignificant other.
And I know there's no way to talk you out of what you *feel*, but that doesn't mean I won't try and alter that you *know*.

I know, and I appreciate that.
Although now I'm wondering if annexing the Sudetenland would help me get a date.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Maria, that's neither superficial nor whining. It's dreadful timing for something dreadful. I'm so sorry.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
{{{Maria}}} I was connecting those dates, too, and desperately hating the unjustness of it.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Maria, that is just the big suck cherry on a mountain of suck and shit. Ugh.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Let the record show that Sean's romantic life demands Liebensraum.
