17 more tweets about being single and gay on Valentine’s Day

We’re approaching the most cloyingly sweet holiday of the year, but if Cupid has lost track of your Grindr handle, you’re not alone: Plenty of gays are spending Valentine’s Day solo.

Last year, we brought you a dozen tweets about Valentine’s Day from single gays, and now we have 17 more.

By the way, if you’re looking for survival tactics, San Francisco drag queen Juanita MORE! recently gave GayCities five ways to celebrate being single on Valentine’s Day. One of those tactics, Juanita said, is to “spread the love.”

“Call, write, or visit someone you have no romantic interest in and tell them how much you love and appreciate their role in their life,” Juanita wrote. “I got a call the other night from a friend I haven’t heard from in years. I closed my eyes for a second and really listened to his voice, remembering the love and kindness he always showed me. It brought a warm smile to my face, and then he said, ‘I miss you,’ and for a moment my day completely disappeared, and I was reminded again of how sweet life can be.”

But if you’re looking for some comic relief, keep reading for funny tweets about spending February 14 as a party of one.

Chaotic single gays – does anyone fancy ruining a bunch of peoples valentine's days by booking out every other seat in the cinema?

I just think it'd be a bit funny

As gay people we get to choose to pretend that we're single by choice, every Valentines Day, rather than unpack and process the reasons why we're not making ourselves available on an emotional level, due to…. I don't know yet cos I haven't unpacked it. pic.twitter.com/NL5sU2rl74

Oh no…. The gays are starting to realize that Valentine’s Day is around the corner and are scrambling to find a date. An alternative option is going on a friend date with one of your besties. REMEMBER just because you’re single, it doesn’t mean you’re weird.

I’m a single, gay doctor with less than two weeks until Valentine’s Day, is this the makings of a Netflix romantic comedy?

— Adam (@adamgreattweet) February 2, 2023

Valentine’s Day is approaching and all I’m gonna say about that is that I’m single, incredibly gay, in desperate need of cuddles, and could probably also do with a nice slice of cake (and coffee, always some coffee)

if ur ever feeling really single just remember that i asked a group of gays if any of them wanted to be my valentine and i got no response so it ended up being a conversation of me flirting with myself lmao pic.twitter.com/6lBBPBcLDg
