Ah, Valentine’s Day.
Such a funny celebration, at least here in the U.S. I understand it’s not so crazy in the UK.
But in the states, it gets ridiculous. For those who don’t have a love-interest, the day is a sorrowful reminder of that ugly fact. I’ve been that person – watching all the girls waltzing about with tributes from their admirers. For singles, the day sucks.
For those who *do* have a love-interest, especially a long-term one, it’s kind of a meh event. Why choose just one day to show love, especially when the candy is stale from being stocked for months and the roses cost three times the amount? Cynical, yes – but also true.
