October to November always seemed to be significant years ago as I used to either meet someone new when single or get dumped around that time. Luckily for me few of these events have stuck, only the fact that just before Xmas things altered. After the last disagreement with my wife I thought it would happen again but we seem to have hurdled it once again. I used to be told that if you were single at Christmas it was the best way because everyone is wanting to be more of a slag but I never found evidence of this. 
If you are desperate enough you can always get to kiss someone, it's just a matter of if you want to stoop that low.
