I would be just fine without such a holiday. Its manipulative. Sorry, am I being a buzz kill? lol

Re: Valentines Day

It's a double whammy for me. My wife's birthday is around the same time, so I'm always double timing it this time of year. And absolutely no way should I combine the two lol.

not at all. we don't celebrate it in our house. real men treat their women like a queen regardless of the arbitrary date chosen by Hallmark/DeBeers/Hershey's. last year it fell on a Tuesday so we celebrated taco tuesday. this year we celebrated wings wednesday. we don't exchange cards, candy, gifts, nothing. Wife's choice and one i agree with.

Re: Valentines Day

We do it for our daughter just as a fun thing. I like to make food fun anyway so there are many hearts on that day. It has a history to it and when they can make money of something, marketing explodes. For all that dislike it so much, there are a hell of a lot of men in the stores buying stuff for the girls in their life. Have a heart. I see it as a friendly reminder and a nice deflect from all the other chaos in our day to day lives.
