- Lovers Day
- A Day For Insecure Lovers to Delude Themselves?
- Or a day of discrimination against single booless people

Love isn't something that is based on time. You can always show or never show love. It should not be based on a day where people are asked to buy things and do things to "prove their love". Just because a man does not buy his wife flowers on February 14th, does not mean that this woman whom he has been married to for forty years, he suddenly does not love.
I believe that Valentines day is just like Christmas and other holidays that are days enforced to us as days to be celebrated when really it is just a way to milk men dry.
To people who think it's good, there are very good people out there that are single who dont even have any hopes of being loved by someone on val day... how do they cope then if not just being lonely and gloomy. Upsetting for people on their own. Depressing. Highlights the fact you're single, divorced, widowed, etc. Just depressing. Everyone running round buying valentines stuff because they feel they have to. All seems very false and forced. Pressure to spend money. Gets worse every year. So commercialised. Its everywhere. Load of rubbish. And what is the big deal? Really one day to shower the other with gifts for one day is dumb that should be everyday not just a meaningless holiday that is retarded. I hate valentine's day and it should be banned

Suppose a girlfriend and a boyfriend are fighting and valentines day is coming up. This holiday will give either of them the chance to apologize and overcome a milestone in the relationship. OR a person has liked another person for a long time. On valentines day they could leave the person a note or a hint or straight up go for it
Nobody is forcing anybody to celebrate it, but what's so wrong about a day to celebrate and show your appreciation for your significant other? Just because you may not have one to celebrate with, doesn't mean that Valentine's Day shouldn't be a thing. Don't be bitter, Valentine's day is NOT just about romantic love and if you're really so upset that you don't have a date, find others like yourself and have a group date and maybe next year you'll have an s/o to celebrate with.

While I also agree that showing your love is something you should do all year round, I do enjoy having a day where I feel like I can go the extra mile for the person I love! I do make a point not to go out on valentines day however, because it's always so busy, but I'll go usually the week after and we'll celebrate

There shouldn't just be one day a year for your boyfriend or who ever to treat you well. That should be every day. Valentines is pointless. I like it because you find out if you have a secret admire but I think that it is not something to celebrate for. I feel sorry for people who are so insecure in their relationships that they feel the need to make a big deal out of things like this. The longer you're with each other, the more you'll realize the stuff that truly matters in real life and in a real relationship, and it certainly is not whether he bought you something pretty. If you need a special day to show your love you don't really love that person.

Valentines day is not just to give and receive cards and gifts. Its not just for your partner, it is a day to love everybody. it is to show others that you love or appreciate them. Moreover when doing nice stuff for others always makes you feel good, so by celebrating it you are not only showing others you care and feeling good because you were being nice you are also celebrating something that was very important to a special saint: ST. VALENTINE! He gave up his life for love so spend one day a year to celebrate with him and just have fun!
