Who agrees with me that valentines day is just a holiday made up to make money and make those?

who dont have girlfriends feel miserable. If you really respect your gf/bf, you should give her/him gifts regularly throughout the year, and always treat him/her with respect.Who agrees with me that valentines day is just a holiday made up to make money and make those?
EXACTLY!!





when it comes to v-day i am ANTI TO THE EXTREME!!!!!!





why do I hate valentines day??





1. i dont have a boyfriend. never have


2. it ruins my birthday


3. this year i have to babysit for my church ON valentines day so that parents can have a date. then i get to go home and babysit my siblings





my b-day is feb. 16 why does it ruin my b-day


1. my brother gives me the crap he doesnt want as a present (example--an expired friendlys coupon)


2. my sis is to buisy trading chocolate she got in class to remember that it is my b-day (she forgot totally last year. the first words out of her mouth after someone said happy b-day to me was ';its your birthday??';


3. no one wants to make me a cake because they are to buisy trying to get rid of all the valentines candy that they dont need any more junk food in the house


4. the stores dont sell anything i like ( I am not a fan of chocolate and chocolate is basically the only thing they are selling)


5. the resurant is full of couples on late valentines dates.


6. 2 words: CHEESY JOKES (example: you are so lovable cause you were born so close to valentines day----yes i have actually heard that.....and it was on a card once)


7. All this pink is sickening (i am not a pink person)


8. it brings back bad memories of when i had to make my own valentines and everyone made fun of me for putting happy hearts day or happy v-day


9. well there is no 9 but there is way more than 1-8 and i just cant remember them








to every one: if you like valentines day, then i hope that short little stupid baby wiht the arrow (cupid) misses and that arrow goes up your ***











bah humbugg!Who agrees with me that valentines day is just a holiday made up to make money and make those?
You are right in a sense. If the relationship you are in is only honored one day a year...it's not worth much. Valentine's Day, although currently seen as just for lovers (the commercial end) is actually a celebration of St. Valentine whose sacrifical life of love to all inspired many.
yep, all the way, and i think it's just to make money in the slow time of the year and it's all hype
is this a yes or no question? i dont have a boyfriend and this valentines has been great. i got flowers from a few friends and cards too. you do not have to have a boyfriend or girlfriend to celebrate valentines day
I 100% totally agree!
It's all in the way you choose to perceive it of course. If you want to see the ';day'; as commercial so it is, however if you choose to see it as a day when you show the ones you love (and I don't mean neccessarily a bf/gf/spouse whatever) that you appreciate them and in fact love them.





If you hate the commercialism? then don't bow to it of course, but don't condemn all those who do choose to show lover for everyone in their life whether or not there is the 'other'
That is totally true....
that is SO true! but it seriously isnt made up. in the war, there men were not aloud to get married. so then there was this man named St.Valentine who would secretly marry people. he then got caught and got killed and that is why we have valentines day!
Dude TRUE TRUE PISSES ME OFF ITS THE STUPIDEST THING EVER ITS DEPRESSING IF YOU DONT HAVE ANYBODY AND ITS JUST SO HALMARK CAN MAKE MONEY OFF OF CARDS
Good thoughts and very true.
I believe too many people buy into the ';Buy all this pink and red and frilly junk, or you'll die'; mentality of it.





But I like valentines day. I LOVE planning suprises and doing mushy stuff..and this is my one guaranteed day a year that I can do it, and know that he's up for it, and didn't have something else planned to do when he gets home!





But then again, I do stuff all year round. Thats just who I am. Random presents. Random suprises at home. But V-day is just a day to go all out. And not neccesarily on gifts either, just fun stuff to do!
i agree, this is all a scam, like black friday. did u know that they pull up the prices for cloths BEFORE black friday, then drop em down again after
I agree. Valentines' Day is ridiculous. It can also be known as Singles Awareness Day, for all of those out there without dates, as my good friend Chris Gore would say.
I very much agree! Alot of the holidays that started out meaning something always turns into a money gimmick! I would rather put my money on my necessities than on cards or flowers that end up being throwed out later, waste of money!!!!
