I just dont 'get' Valentines Day.

I never have. Single, in a relationship, married...Ive never gotten into this day. I dont see the point. I guess alot of women want (and expect) chocolates, cards, candy, flowers, jewelry & whatever else today...but I dont get the meaning behind it. Seems pretty materialistic to me. The women bitch & complain if their husbands didnt get them anything, but where's the romance behind that? Expecting presents & whining when you didnt get any. Im sure that kills whatever the 'real' meaning of Valentines Day is.

As for me, I dont need gifts. I will NEVER want jewlery for any holiday, but I dont need chocolates to stuff myself with or flowers to die in 3 days. I have everything I need. And as for my husband, he doesnt need one day to let me know he cares. We do that all year long. We do special, sweet things for each other all the time...Valentines Day isnt anything special to us, and we dont get into buying each other presents today just because everyone else is. Its super silly.

When I say 'I hate Valentines Day', people might take that as me being a bitter old woman, but thats not the case at all. I have the BEST husband I could ask for...he is sweet, thoughtful, caring, everything I could ask for. If I got into Valentines Day, he would shower me with pretty things...but I dont. His love is enough for me...not just today, but all year round :)
