I think of Valentines day as the same way I think of prom, disappointing because it’s too overrated.
It’s not a day created by Hallmark, sorry people pick up a bible or google it. It’s OVER-HYPED because of Hallmark, jewelers and chocolate sellers, which is what makes it suck.
It’s supposed to be a day where you tell the love of your life you love them. Not a day to spoil or spend a ton of money on. When you’re single all this over-hyped nonsense can make you very depressed. For some they can laugh it off or can get around it, good for them. But when your young and Kay’s jewelers is telling you that life is not worth living without a tacky piece of jewelery and a box of chocolates it can be overwhelming.
This year just like the past 4 years I will be eating out with my BF and I will make him a heartfelt card in the style of collage, I was Fine Arts Major so no, it’s not just some crappy card homemade card. We will be extra nice to each other and have a good time, which is what the day is really about.

Meh I like V-day. My dad still gets me flowers every year, otherwise when I was single I pretty much ignored it and enjoyed the mindless rom-coms on TV. My junior year of college Mr. Bumbler worked up the nerve to finally tell me how he felt on V-day so we always reminisce about him sneaking up to my bedroom window on his crappy little scooter trying not to wake my roommates. Other than that we keep it pretty low-key, no big expectations or pressure.
