Even if you don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day, February 14th seems to affect relationships. It somehow makes you take stock in a relationship, even if it’s on a subconscious level. Holidays in general seem to do this. These times of year give you that little wake up call to that voice inside you that you were probably ignoring.

That might have been what happened with Mary-Kate Olsen and her man Nate Lowman. People reports that the two broke up before Valentine’s Day. Hey, she’s still young, and a breakup isn’t the end of the world. She’s only 23, and she’s rich and needs to be picky. I hope she takes some time to herself to enjoy single life before plunging back into the dating world.
