Do you think it’s a bit cliche and cheesy to start a relationship on Valentine’s Day?

Question

I had a few couples in my life who wanted to be in a relationship with each other but specifically waited until Valentine’s Day to make it official. I thought it was weird. I don’t think you should wait for a specific day to make your relationship official. To me it makes more sense to celebrate your relationship on Valentine’s Day. One of the couples later broke up after Valentine’s Day because of the pressure to buy their significant other something for Valentine’s Day and their anniversary.

That’s just my opinion. I’m curious about what others think about that.

Yes, Valentines’ Day is silly to me , it’s just a way companies and restaurants can make a shit ton of money off of people , If you actually loved and cared about someone , you don’t need 1 day to prove that to them , you should be loving them every day. Valentines’ to me is fake love , because sadly a lot of people have high expectations on Valentines Day, and if they don’t receive what they expect from their partner , then they end up miserable and ungrateful and upset at their partner for not dropping a shit ton of money on them and not making a big deal about Valentines Day. I appreciate gifts that are unexpected on any given day over gifts that feel forced and obligated to buy. , by a loved one , I wouldn’t want my partner going out of their way for 1 stupid day to prove they loved me and me personally doesn’t want to go out of my way as well, it’s a waste of time and money in my opinion. Most females’ expect to receive these big glamorous gifts and to be pampered by their men, and all men want is to get laid. Why i consider it fake Love because it’s not really thoughtful gifts. Love to me , is better when it’s spontaneous on any given day. I rather be in a relationship with a girl that doesn’t give 2 shits about Valentines’ Day period ,

Just for fun I handed out some single red roses on the street to girls walking by solitary on V day. From the reactions I'm pretty sure you could start a relationship on Valentines very easily.

Valentine’s is a romantic holiday, the most popular day for proposals, marriages, and conceptions of children later born in November. I don’t think it’s “cheesy” necessarily to use the holiday as an excuse to finally get up the courage to ask someone out, or celebrate that you’re officially going steady as it’s all in the spirit of the season. And besides which, when did a cliché do any real harm to anybody?

To each their own. Some people like to do things in what they consider meaningful ways and had traditions and rituals in their relationship, more than other couples. I think we all do it in some ways. I prefer to let things happen more naturally and organically. But I do like to celebrate those big... and little... moments at times.

Yeah, it's very cheesy, but I feel like if it has meaning to them, then... More power to em.. As long as it ends up in a beautiful life long partnership..

WhitneySnow · Answer

I agree with you. I wouldn’t specifically wait till Valentine’s Day to date someone I was interested in and who I knew was interested in me.
