Have you ever sent a Valentine's Day card as a joke?

Some years ago I sent one to my brother, anonymously, as he was single and was without a girlfriend at the time. I thought it would be a laugh ... Wrong! He took it so seriously and genuinely believed there was someone out there who fancied him. My biggest mistake was eventually owning up to it because it was getting pathetic. Was he pissed off! Didn't see the funny side at all. Never again. 🤭

EDIT:
For all those who took umbrage at this post my dearest brother and I are great friends too and it didn't take him long to see the funny side and laugh about it. He appreciated the "pay back" as he tricks me often! 🙂

@Peaches Great expression! 🤭 We laugh about it every year now, silly duffer to take it SO seriously. 😄

@Zoranna Yes, siblings always pull pranks on each other.😉I can't believe how serious some took that here...like you were plotting to kill him or something?!😒

@Peaches I know, totally ridiculous! I think part of the problem is, apart from having no sense of humour, is that they take themselves too damned seriously and should lighten up at least a little bit. It was enlightening in a way though: who to stay away from. 😉
