Valentines Day is coming are you ready?

Question

No, in my opinion it's the stupidest holiday.

Let’s say you’re in a relationship at Valentine’s Day. You’re societally obligated (or obligated by your partner) to buy a sappy gift and do something extra romantic. In my opinion, this just makes it less special because it’s the day when everyone else is getting overly sappy and you feel like you have to. Do something special for your partner’s birthday, because that’s just about them. Do something special on some other random day of the year, just because you can. Either way, it will come out more romantic, more personal, and less forced.

Let’s say you’re not in a relationship. This makes a lot of people miserable. Everyone around them is happy, sappy, and in love. Everything is pink and covered in hearts. If you’re looking for a healthy relationship and haven’t been able to find one, or you’ve just gotten out of one, that can be absolutely miserable. Or, other people try to use this as a “friends” Valentine’s Day excuse. Which is a nice idea in concept, except that this usually degrades into “I don’t need a man/woman in my life”. The very fact that you’re making a big deal about doing something non-romantic on an almost exclusively romantic holiday, and running around insisting you don’t need to be in a relationship is further proof that you think you need to be in a relationship.

It also encourages people to be materialistic and less creative. Valentine’s Day gifts are all about things that are crazy expensive and don’t last. It’s usually flowers, candy, or cards, none of which last. Sometimes it’s jewelry, which is crazy expensive or stuffed animals, which are honestly kind of cute, but sort of pointless. These are the go-to Valentine’s Day presents, and few people actually stray from it, which makes it not creative, shallow, and less personal and romantic.

No. Wtf. So I’m forced to be with some idiot in a relationship? I’m not even ready for that sh-T. And yet this society and their made-up holidays makes me feel like I don’t belong? You can shove your Valentine’s Day up your ass.

Why can’t we have actual cool Holidays like Brazils Carnival and SAMBA.

Why can’t we have Spains Tomatina and throw tomatoes at eachother.

Why can’t we have Ecuador and Thailand Carnaval and throw water at eachother.

Valentines is a stupid Holiday that benefits no one. I celebrate Valentines Day Every single day when I’m sleeping with my F-W-Bs. When I’m being intimate with my BOY TOYS.

This is yet another deluded Holiday to spend unnecessary money on some BS TRASH.

I find it more meaningful and romantic and sincere; when it’s NOT Valentine’s Day.. and my guy goes out of his way to gift me chocolates and flowers, and toys, and treats. When he deliberately decides to take me somewhere special or do something special for me.

Bot because he’s now FORCED TO; because of a made-up holiday celebration. BS.

Poor Saint Valentine. His legacy has been reduced from saving the lives of Christians the Roman Empire tried to execute, to the day of his execution being remembered as singleness awareness day.

"Valentines Day is coming are you ready?"

Ready for what exactly?

There is nothing in it for Men, they are expected to pay out and receive little in return, It is nothing but an over commercialised day which I never 'celebrated' even when I was in a relationship, something I made clear from day one.

This is a really pathetic holiday. You dedicate one day to do something nice for your SO? Why not do that any other day of the year? So much unnecessary stress and BS. Just omit this holiday all together.

I don’t understand the hate for Valentine’s Day. Go out with our SO, get a gift with a card, and enjoy the day! Don’t have to stress or go broke over Valentine’s Day. 💝
