valentines cards

Valentine's madness is in full swing right now, meaning we can't do as much as buy groceries without being bombarded with displays of cards, flowers and all things red/pink.

Vom. The sappyness of V-Day is tough enough if you're part of a couple, let alone if you're single.

That's why we love these relationship (or lack of it)-themed cartoons by artist Ling Vistov. She just gets us.

There's the joy of an imaginary boyfriend…

 

Wondering if you should just pack it all in and become a cat lady…

 

Trying to reason with yourself…

 

Celebrating Valentine's with your lovers Ben and Jerry…

 

Planning and failing…

 

But realising that no matter how single you are, you're never as lonely as poor Leo.
