does anyone else just not care for valentines day?

I'm single, and so I've never really done anything for it.

also, I don't think it's that.. well, special. shouldn't people be nice to their partner every day of the year?

why make a day for it

I mean if you celebrate it and enjoy it, fair enough I suppose

but I just don't get it myself. don't see the appeal, and not sure I would even if I had someone honestly

I’m not that into it… never have been

I did make it special for my kids… my daughter is in kindergarten and was very excited for today, and she had a great day. Both my kids got treats and an artificial rose that lights up

I think the concept of it is lovely, but it’s ultra commercialized (like every other holiday now I guess), but also it tends to build expectation in people, and also make people feel they should go spend money in some type of fashion. If you love someone you should make sure they know it every day, not just February 14th while simultaneously cramming it down everyone else’s throats. I’ve seen posts here and heard from others just how lonely they feel today
