I don't "love" it, nor do I hate it.

I don't mind it :)

My mom is my valentine , she does not need money from me .

(And also, please for anyone who was in IRC and saw my Copy Paste slipup with my conversation with my mom, dont post it )

And I'll probably walk up to a random girl at school today and ask her .

ive hated it every year becaus eive never been with anyone on valentines day but the girl im with now ive been with for a year now and for some reason i actually like valentines day, beacuse we buy each other things and it makes me feel special and loved.

but on the other hand it's just another reason for companies to take our hard-earned cash of us and make a big profit.

Im not a very big fan of Valentines Day :\ altho its alright i guess but gotta say i Hate It

I think it's become commercial for sure - but that can be expected for any holiday...

For me, it's not a big deal. It can make a good conversation starter I suppose... that's the only use of it to me.

On top of that, I'm single ATM. Even if I wasn't I'm not gonna go all out on a special day to say 'I love you', what about the other 364.25 days in the year? You don't deserve anything then?

Best to spread out the love all year round, not just one day.
Thanks to Hallmark for making such a shitty holiday

I'm gonna say I agree, it's a normal day, made into something it really isn't

Just another cube on my calendar.

Plus, if you really loved you special someone, everyday would be 'Valentines Day', you would make every day a special day for them, why is it that we need a day to express our love for our boyfriends/girlfriends? Surely we can just do that on any day, because after all, we are supposed to love them.

Most people live really hectic lives, and don't have the time, nor the funds to splash out with expensive meals, holidays and other things every day of the year.

So Valentines day serves as a day where couples who can set aside and really do something romantic.

Of course they can do it on any other day of the year, but if you have a job, live a hectic lifestyle, and don't have too much disposable income, as most people do, then it is a nice "excuse" to splash out on your loved one.

Without Valentines day, people wouldn't have this excuse and so they would probably never do something overly romantic.

I'd love to be spending today with the one I love but thats never gunna happen, I was stupid and ended it for reasons that werent even plausible. I guess you leanr from your mistakes :\ I wont be doing that ever again. So tonight Im babysitting while mum and stepdad go out Wu!
