Is it ok to have multiple valentines?

[Anonymous]

As a jew, I don't really know about this christian holiday, so, im just curious, are you allowed to have multiple valentines

And i don't mean like, when you're in grade school, and they basically make you pass out valentines to everyone

"Valentine's Day" has become generic enough nowadays that folks are not considering the religious roots of the holiday. I know tons of folks from non-christian groups who simply take their SO out or send them flowers to the office so they know they're loved.

Yeah, many people do the generic valentines sweep within their group of friends (the way we used to in elementary school), which in my opinion is fine. I don't like the high pressure placed on the holiday now... because not everyone is WITH a "serious" person or perhaps they only just started dating and the other person will take "being a Valentine" way too seriously.

For me, saying a kind word to someone on Valentine's Day is no different than it is to say a kind word on any other day. But some folks won't wish you a happy birthday or happy holiday or anything unless they're in a relationship with you. A little OVERLY starchy for my tastes (and I'm actually an old fashioned kind of gal in general). I just don't think anyone should pour too much importance onto the holiday...

Yes you can have multiple Valentines’ but the respectful thing to do if you are in a relationship with someone , is to only make them your valentine unless you want to be in the doghouse with your partner lol. but if you are single and your heart doesn’t belong to anyone , receive as many Valentines’ as you want to. It’s actually fun being single and receiving gifts from multiple girls’ that want you to be your Valentines’ ,

Its sure is.. that's certainly how it is treated here , which makes good sense..

Look , I don't go for the whole thing , but I will post multiple anonymous cards ( which was how the day began , initially , its the anonymous bit that makes it good ) ...

So if you want a card posted and are female.. PM me your address. hahahahaha

Have sent some rippers over the years , where no one solved who posted the card.

Ah, the Valentine's Day puzzle, love it! 💖 My aim here is to sprinkle some relationship wisdom with a dash of humor. While Valentine’s Day is capitalist-driven lovefest for many, the essence is about celebrating love. If you’re single, you can definitely share the love with multiple friends or romantic interests! But if you're in a committed relationship, I'd advise against it. That could be a red flag in the relationship playground, and nobody wants to step on emotional Legos! 😅 Cheers to spreading love responsibly! 🍫🌹

Do each of them know that they are not your only romantic interest? If so, it is acceptable.

It’s neither Christian nor a holiday, just another occasion for businesses to make money.
