general What does Valentine's Day mean to you?

[Sonic Shimmer 4,116]

Absolutely nothing.

 

Maybe next year.

[Blaire D. Lycan 91]

well now i am beginning to look at it differently. ya see i grabbed life by the balls (got courage if your want to know what i just said) and asked a boy to be my valentines and he said yes! 

[Comic Sans 401]

Should at least appreciate what they did for you at the time. I agree that Valentines is pointless, but still.

 

But, everyone to their own, I guess.

* they had previously asked me about valentines day and i told them that i didn't want anything because i think it's a pointless holiday. it's more the fact they didn't listen to me and bought them anyway which annoyed me. they went on to complain about how i didn't get them anything, to which i just explained that i can show my love for you all year around, why do i need to wait until a specific day of the year to do so?

[Blaire D. Lycan 91]

i agree with that over all. even tho i now have a valentines i still think that the day is pointless because you wait one day to show love? that is lack of emotion then.

Yeah. I can see where you're coming from with that. I didn't know that they got mad at you because you didn't get them anything for valentines. My bad.

[Overdrive 5,366]

Honestly, not much. I've kinda become numb to it with how many times my heart's been broken.

[ILikeNightmares 163]

Just another cr*ppy day among 364 other to me.

[Blaire D. Lycan 91]

sorry to hear that really!!!!

[SuperBrony87 506]

Sure doesn't improve your chances of getting any dates if you carry an air of negativity like that. Sure the date's ever shown any significance to me cause V-Day is no fun for singles right? But what does it mean when even couples don't particularly like the day used for Hearts and Hooves Day? Explain?!? 

 

 Also if the day doesn't do you nothing special... At least The Walking Dead season premiers. That's a treat for everyone

[Yarishia 144]

If someone would asked me what Valentine's Day means to me about 2 years ago, then I'd say - absolutely nothing. But now this day means to me, that I'll be feeling more lonely than normal

Each of my friends will go to the cinema on Deadpool or somehting else with hteir girlfriends and vice versa... but not me

I hope it will be the last time when I spend this day alone.

A way of selling useless tat to people who don't need it.

 

Same as Christmas.

[Buzz 1,769]

An excuse for companies and business men to put anything with flowers, chocolate or the colour red on its packaging up in price by 300%, and everyone giving them their money because, apparently, human beings can only show love to another human being one day a year!

 

and,.....

 

The return of The Walking Dead, season 6

 

[Shanks 10,811]

The same as any other day for the most part, except this year it is going to be on a Sunday and I am usually off on Sundays so that is the one thing I am looking forward to about Valentines Day this year. There is also the marked down candy the day after, but other than that eh though I suppose I would feel differently if I had a romantic partner other than my hand and the occasional "toy".

To me it means I have an excuse to send really corny cards to my friend. As for a romantic connotation it doesn't have one seeing as how Tennessee isn't the most open of places to be living.

sitting by the riverside

eating chocolate. Literally just that.

[Steel Accord 6,658]

Reminder that I'm still single but a happy reminder of the kind of connection I might have in my future.

I came across this article, and thought it would fit here.

[Magic Rasin 180]

Nothing really. I don't exactly care for holidays that I can't/don't want to participate in.

[Spanish In Physician 295]

Another unpaid holiday that I don't get off work for. ._. Other than that, absolutely nothing. YAY!

[redaxted 1,765]

Nothing much, really... I've never had a valentine before, and I doubt that I will for a long time; I do enjoy celebrations though. The occasion is very overhyped by the media, and comes across as simply an excuse to sell expensive chocolates, sweets, and flowers to the masses in p,entry of cases. I do find it sweet, though!

[Detritus 258]

It's actually a day where I'm grateful that I don't have a girlfriend... because I'm not obligated to waste any money on junk.

[OceanSapphire 227]

Hi, will you buy me a box of chocolates, a bouquet of roses, a giant teddy bear, take me out to a movie, and take me to a fancy restaurant all in the hopes of me not completely forgetting you exist by next Tuesday?

[Ted Cruz 177]

V-Day DID have an interesting backstory, but I just see it as marketing now.

[Guest]

It means hanging out with my female friends and watching emotional movies.
