I had forgotten how much Valentine's Day does suck. And not because I'm single or angry about sappy couples or whatever.
Just... today's my birthday and everyone's always got something more important to do on this day. It always ends in a fight because I have to struggle not to be forgotten.

Valentines Day?
More like 'look at me I'm in love'. BAH! screw that man, drink my wine to myself thank you and enjoy Single's Awareness Day. Seriously, I hate the stigma that tells people that they have to be with someone to be happy with themselves.
You forgot to put @Diana in your post. I have remedied the situation. *runs behind a corner and waits*

I have no problem with Valentines Day except the preceding week where everyone comes out to whine about how they're single. I do have a personal distaste for it ( but I don't let that get in the way of everyone's fun ) namely because I lost my fiance shortly before VDay last year.

I don't dislike Valentines Day, but the conversations about it make my head hurt.
For one, why are people distributing chocolate and flowers? St. Valentines MAY be the patron of love, but why CHOCOLATE? Roses, SPECIFICALLY red ones, are a sign of adoration, but CHOCOLATE? Dairy-based products with high fat and calorie gain? Where's the love in that? Also, the existence of Valentines Day just really takes a bat covered in nails to my frontal lobe. St. Valentine was a elusive saint who did nothing but got couples married and people to fall in love (or something). Quite literally your everyday matchmaker. Then he died on Feb 14th, and it became his day, like other well known saints. The ONLY reason why chocolates and roses and hearts and the inappropriate use of cherubs (which I personally found annoying due to cherubs conflicting with the depictions of angels as fearsome beings of pure light (LIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGHHHTTTT)) and Cupid. Who the heck IS Cupid anyway? Why did the Big Guy give him this crappy job of shooting arrows at people?
So many questions! So many unanswers! I need to knoooowww, I NEED TO KNOW. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, POWER CORRUPTS, CORRUPTION IS CRIME, CRIME DOES NOT PAY, MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND, KNOWLEDGE FREEZES THE WOOOORRRLLLDDD.

- Fantasy is number one. Steampunk, sci-fi, alternate history, and everything else that isn't boringly realistic are also fine by me.
I love Valentine's Day. ^^

I USED to hate Valentine's.
Now, I think you can take it any way you want it
So on Valentines, I show everyone I love how I appreciate them; from my family to my friends, and yes also my boyfriend. The commercial aspect definitely capitalizes on romantic love ("If you love him/her you'll buy...") but I think it's fine to include family and friends in this holiday as well
...Did I avoid the trap? ^_^

- A commercial/hallmark holiday
- A holiday to stomp on single folks
- Mardigras, but with sex for chocolate insetad of boobs for beads
- A holiday dedicated to celebrating the people you love

I used to hate valentines day, untill I/no.
Anyway, yeah I just recently got a girlfriend. Like the week of valentines day, and everyones like, " why didn't you ask her out After valentines day so you don't have to do anything for her, and I'm like, "If I thought about it like that, I'd have never gone out with her in the first place!" But yeah, I couldn't get her anything, and, she gave me a tie she had... (I like ties.)
