One of the major dangers of being alone in February is the tendency to dwell on past relationships. Whether you're daydreaming about that 'one that got away,' or you're recalling the fairy tale date you went on last Valentine's Day, romanticizing the past isn't helpful - nor accurate.

While reflecting on past relationships and learning from them can be helpful, February isn't the best time to try and gain insight.

Idealizing the reality of past romances won't do you any favors as you face Valentine's Day alone.
