I think the thing that bothers me most about Valentine’s day is the fact that so many people insist on moping around over the fact that they’re single. It isn’t that big of a deal, I promise. I was single last year on Valentine’s Day but it didn’t make me feel lonely and not once did I feel the need to victimize myself and mumble “forever alone” every time the opportunity came up. It’s a commercialized holiday in which boys shower their girlfriends with overpriced, materialistic symbols of love. Yet, in reality, it should be every other day of your regular day-to-day routine that makes you feel loved - that makes it evident how much love exists between you and your significant other. It’s irritating me that I have friends who are complaining because their boyfriends didn’t show up on their doorstep with flowers or jewelry. Should those things really matter? 

Or oh, what peeves me even more is when couples choose Valentine’s day to spew forth every single corny, overused line on a public website. “Forever and ever” or “you’re my one and only love”. Dude, first of all, you’ve been dating for all of… I don’t know, a month. I wouldn’t be professing my eternal love just yet. More importantly, if these feelings are how you really feel why do you have to wait for the most predictable day to say it. Why can’t you tell your significant other how much you love them on a normal day? Personally, if someone showed up with flowers and a handwritten note on a day that’s not Valentine’s day then the surprise would mean doubly more. I mean, of course it’s sweet to get it ON Valentine’s Day, but isn’t it even more special when they don’t need some dumb holiday to prompt them to do it?

Yeah. Idk. 

Anyways, I had a good Valentine’s day and a wonderful dinner with my boyfriend. I won’t spew grossly cheesy commentary about how much I love him. So I’ll spare you all.
