Durbanite and 5FM are giving 5 lucky Durbanites double tickets to the Durban leg of #LoveSucks! All you need to do is tell us your Valentine’s horror story below! Winners will be announced on Wednesday 12 Feb 2014.

No matter your love persuasion, 5FM Love Sucks celebration can help you unlock love, or at the very least make sure you have a good laugh, on Valentine’s Day. Cupid’s big day isn’t just for couples, in fact, it can be more fun if you’re not committed.

Love Sucks is the coolest way to celebrate Valentine’s Day – whether you’re single or not. Partygoers can expect a night of unforgettable 5FM-style entertainment with a sassy, loved-up edge – Riddler cards and love potions are designed to raise money for 5FM’s Youngblood 5 charities, so come dressed up as either a Superhero or Villain hosted by 5FM personalities and the hottest dance floor tunes as the 5FM DJs take to the decks. 5FM’s crazy doctor Roger Goode, MsCosmo and sassy Poppy will entertain crowds in Johannesburg at Manhattans and Rob Forbes and Fix, and DJ Milkshake will keep the Durban crowd company at Vogue Night Club. And the dresscode? ‘Heroes Vs. Villains’. Yes, really! We want everyone in character, there will even be professional make-up artists to complete the look if need be. Strength booths will be there to test your ability to save the damsel in distress or steal her away from that Joker.

All one has to do is pre-register to 5FM’s Love Sucks otherwise entrance at the door costs only R50 per person before 10pm and thereafter R100. All the money goes to a cause supported by 5FM’s CSI campaign, Youngblood5.

Was set up on a blind date, and when he came to fetch me, it turns out that we were double dating! He arrived to pick me up with his brother and sister-in-law…As if that was not awkward enough, I had to sit in the back of the vehicle with his sister-in-law, and make small talk with a stranger, like I was not under pressure enough already! So then we arrived at the shopping mall (of their choice by the way). So it was decided that we were going to watch a movie, and have dinner. So we started off with dinner, and at the restaurant, we all ordered…so it turns out in their family, it is normal to share food and eat from each other’s plates…which is what they did with me, they asked for my ribs (to taste apparently)…I ended up giving it away to them as I was put off and did not feel like eating thereafter. Then on to the movie, the choice was “My Bloody Valentine” in 3D. That was the most gruesome and violent movie I have yet seen, limbs and body parts being sliced and thrown all over the place! This was the worst date / Valentines ever! #ValentinesDay #EPICFAIL

I was in a relationship for 4years with someone who didnt work, didnt spoil me, didnt think Valentines day mattered and was more in love with weed than me. Every 14th of Feb was just another day. Sometimes I would trick myself into thinking that ‘this year will be different, Valentines will be special’ blah! My ex has really ruined Valentines day for me forever. Now I am in a new relationship with the most amazing person who is crazy romantic and I would love to share this prize with my baby!
