SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit
TITLE: I thought this was an appropriate subreddit: I'm asking you, the community, to be sensitive about this Valentines day. (Or next year's, I suppose)
POST: Hello reader,

I'm glad to see that you've decided to give me a chance. Look- we need to talk. I haven't had time until now to look at Reddit, and I can't believe some of the things you (the community) have upvoted into the highest ranks. Posts talking about how single people will be doing *nothing* but masturbating and crying.

I am not single. There are many people who browse this website who are. I can understand if you want to lighten the mood a bit, but can you be more just a *little* more considerate about the feelings that people have about a day celebrating not being lonely, please?

This is not a plea to "forever-alone'ers". This is to speak to the user who sits alone tonight of any gender or sexual preference and is forced to endure all these things that are telling them that they should feel bad today. It really makes me sick, guys.

I know what it's like to be down like that- and if I was down like I was years ago, then, well- I'm not sure if I'd be able to look at you (the community) as being a supporter of my efforts. Please don't help to make some members feel that way.

I want the sad people to know that ANYTHING can come with time- just please for me, an anonymous guy, try to believe me. I may not know your hurt, but I know the feel. Just give yourself some time. It may be rough, but things WILL get better if you continue on.

I want the people who have supported such offending content to be more cautious. I don't want our community to be anything but stronger, so please- try to be more sensitive about Valentines day, and as the holiday comes to a close, more sensitive long term.

Thank you for reading. I wish you good luck and high spirits.

Sincerely,

-Concerned Member
TL;DR: 
I'm asking for you to consider the lonelier members of Reddit and their reactions to the posts that have reached the highest ranks on a holiday that excludes the temporarily intimately stranded.*
