I will not get upset over men, but instead be poised and cool ice-queen.

Valentine's Day purely commercial, cynical enterprise, anyway. Matter of supreme indifference to me.

As Bridget writes to her son, in Bridget Jones' Baby - "if you just keep calm and keep your spirits up, things have a habit of turning out all right, just as they did for me."

Oh, God, I'm so lonely. An entire weekend streching ahead with no one to love or have fun with. Anyway, I don't care. I've got a lovely steamed ginger pudding from M&S to put in the microwave.

But if you are single the last thing you want is your best friend forming a functional relationship with somebody else.

..we were always taught, instead of waiting to be swept off our feet, to 'expect little, forgive much'.

Bridget Jones' Baby, at heart is about the gap between how you expect life to turn out and how it actually does.
