Valentine's day is an over hyped, financially burdening, and emotionally damaging experience. It's funny how were fooled into it at an early age with the idea of giving someone you love/like a hand made post card. Then when you hit your early teens chocolates and flowers are incorporated. In the later teen years when your parents trust you enough to let you out on your own dinner is put in.
so financially now you have the post card, chocolate, flowers, and dinner all bundled up together in one package, and it's not cheap. It's not like there's a Valentine's day happy meal "Yes sir, get it all together and you'll get a 50% discount" but then again, with Valentine's being so commercialized, I'm not surprised if someone's already come up with this kind of package on offer.
it's over hyped because people are to believe that on Valentine's day, that person you have a crush on is gonna miraculously fall for you if you give him/her some flowers. Also that if your relationship is on the rocks, Valentine's day is the day to make it all right. Dude! A relationship takes time, and effort. Why is it that people think Valentine's is a kind of love loop hole that will give you a short cut to someone's heart.
Emotionally damaging because there's that pressure to perform and deliver. To be so romantic that your significant other would go breathless and melt in your hands. Valentine's day doesn't care if your having a bad day, it doesn't care if u need some alone time after a big argument. Valentine forces you to plan your day based on what Valentine wants. On Valentine's you play by his rules, you have to make the effort no matter how insincere.
Valentine's day isn't sincere anymore. Valentine is evil
