From the team at Terrible, Thanks for Asking, an online event for all: Valentine’s Day is a holiday that’s pretty loaded for a lot of people. Single people have their loneliness amplified; coupled people are pressured to dial up the romance. And in the pandemic era, both options are pretty awful. NO ONE HAS THE TIME OR ENERGY FOR THIS CRAP! So this year, we’re your date. Put on your finest sweatpants, grab an entire box of chocolates and join us Sunday, February 14th at 7 p.m. CST. We’ll trade stories of love gone wrong, get dating advice from a couple who has been married 50 years, and maybe even do a little matchmaking. RSVP now for this free online event
