How does Valentine’s Day make you feel?

[thatshydork]

For me it’s a mix of ehh/I don’t care and sad.

Good/happy

Sad/lonely

Nothing/I don’t really care

I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I enjoy it very much. I received all kinds of snacks yesterday.

That said, we celebrate Valentine's differently here in Japan. Only women give gifts to men. Men don't give gifts to women.

For giving gifts to women, we have White Day in March. That's when men reciprocate and give gifts back to all the women from whom they received gifts.

Oh no way, you’re from Japan? My mom is from there! What part do you live in?

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Nice! I am from here, born and raised, although my mother is half-American. I currently live in Kyushu together with my wife although I'm originally from Shizuoka.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Oops sorry, my mother is American. I'm half-American as a result on my mother's side. That was a goofy mistake trying to word the sentence nicely. 😅

[thatshydork]

Oh cool! My mom is from Miyazaki and my grandma and aunt and uncle live in Kagoshima and my cousins live in Tokyo.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Awesome! I'm in Fukuoka. I have a very good friend from Miyazaki. He loves to surf there. I've never been to Kagoshima but it's on my bucket list; I really want to see Sakurajima.

I lived in Tokyo for many years in my 20s and met my wife there. After marriage, we moved here to Fukuoka since I couldn't afford to buy a house in Tokyo. I miss Tokyo sometimes.

What is your friends name?

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

His name's Darryl but we call him "D". He's American from Los Angeles (Hispanic descent).

When I am single, it’s pretty much like any other day, I still get valentines days cards and I might send out some. When I’m dating, we tend to make a day of it.

i forgot it was valentines day till i got on instagram an hour ago lol idc about most holidays

[CriticalCatDad123]

I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day. It’s a ridiculous “holiday” meant to get men to give overly-privileged women more stuff she doesn’t need because she’s already receives stuff daily.

[thatshydork]

I’m sorry but I really don’t condone such comments that are based in nothing but attitude, bias, and anger. Please take that somewhere else.

Doesn’t matter to me To most men as well. Most of us including myself do it for our partner. Otherwise you’re looked at as an asshole, especially by her friends.

Good, end of the regular sales season

Now I have 8 months to restock but first count the cash, have a monte and a Talisker or two

[Wwwyzzerdd]

I can't even remember the last time I had a Valentine's Day experience so over the years I celebrated it less and less until I barely notice it happens each year.

[ab2shifty]

Me and my homies just spend the day together 🤣

[Still-alive]

'alright time to milk this day for all its worth money wise' *rubs hands together while licking my lips*

[Yannae]

Nothing I don't celebrate it. I only told her 'Happy valentines day"

[AngryCarl]

I literally feel nothing. I'm 64, I'm not going to be anyone's Valentine.

[exitseven]

This year it was nice.

[dolemite58]

They always have a marathon of that show cheaters which cracks me up 🤣

[BCRanger10]

I don't really care.

[CozyCoffin]

I don't celebrate anything.

[BobbieBoy666]
