What are your thoughts on valentine's day? And why are people so serious about it?

I agree with you but I do like to get a present of exquisite pink silk matching lingerie and some jewellery.

It's just like every other holiday these days, very commercialized to make money for retail and restaurants. Back in my day it was just a box of chocolates for a girlfriend or valentines and small candies for school kids and their parties. It became a thing for guys to send flowers to girls in junior-high and high school when my daughter was young and a practice that needs to stop if it hasn't already, they don't need such distractions in public schools.

You mean Romantic Consumerism day
A nice occassion for wannabe couples to flood social media with their trashy make out pix

But its fun. Go with the fun of it but only if you want to. :)

great day!

why not?

tell that to st. valentine. if you even know your history.

and your point of view is askew.

It's a crock of fucking shit ,waste of money

A day when all couples can simultaneously show their love.

I mean it's sweet. Nothing bad.

Some single people take it seriously because some people feel bad when they can't find a lover or because of jealousy.

Non-single people take it seriously because idk everyone or many people have something to show for their love and they want to have something to show for it too.

Like anyone waits for an excuse to brag.

and an excuse for shops to make money

Nice to have a cosey day with a loved one but other than that its just commercial bollocks.

on valentines day:
pay forward a favor from a friend 👐
visit an art gallery and enjoy the exhibits :)
call your parents tell them you love them <3
kill in the name of slenderman 💀
walk in the park and admire natures beauty ☀
