1: A marketing ploy designed to create the expectation between couples that they will buy useless, overpriced "gifts" for one another that will be quickly forgotten the day afterward.
2: A cruel, vicious holiday designed to mock single people and remind them of just how lonely they are.

What makes or breaks all high school relationships. It isnt fair, buts it's true and you all know it

Feburary 14th

A day when if you are in a relationship you expect some overly priced gift, and you end up getting a dozen roses & some chocolates from your lover.

In elementary school, it's when you get a bunch of pieces of paper that people make way too big of a deal of because they don't want to have some ugly kid get one with an owl saying "hoot hoot, your a hoottie." or some gay saying like that. Your only in it for the candy.

Now if your single, this is the day when you go into the corner & cry. (that's me)

This happens to be my birthday. Oh lucky me. & I'm single & probably always will be.

A commercialized holiday that is designed to make you and your "significant other" fall in love even more. Or, gives you the opportunity to tell your "crush" that you love them and what not. But really just ends up making 90% of the population depressed and lonely. Also causing a lot of girls to get typical gifts with no originality whatsoever because they advertise every girl wanting a rose and a box of chocolates.

- February 14th, celebrated in various American and European countries by the exchange of valentines or love tokens. Traditionally (and typically) these tokens are cards, flowers and candy.

Due to the nature of this so-called 'holiday', it is one of the most popular days of the year for marriage proposals.

- A 'holiday' made popular by greeting card companies, candy manufacturers, and florists.

- A 'holiday' that makes pretty much everyone feel miserable, either because they're single, or have a 'significant other' who expects or demands to be showered with gifts and affection to make up for the other 364 days of the year that receive next to no attention. On the flip side, this 'holiday' has also become somewhat of a national make-up day that people use to 'make-up' for the other 364 days of the year that they aren't romantic and attentive to their relationships.

The 14th of February, the day where people celebrate love. One of those "holidays" that helps the stores to make more money off of cards, roses, chocolate, etc.

Also...If you have a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife, then good for you. If you're single (especially if you're single and not loving it) then it's a day in which couples just rub their whole relationship thing in your face. Basically lets single people know very well they don't have a boyfriend/girlfriend (as if they don't know that already).

See Single Awareness Day.

February 14th

A day in which cards, candies and gifts are bought for one's signifigant other, in hopes that their signifigant other may allow them to release oxytocin and vasopressin into their systems, making their brain patterns appear as though they are snorting cocaine.

On this day, they are essentially "buying" their signifigant other, so that these love chemicals may be released into their system. It is drug money.

A stupid day when mindless droids who claim the will be together forever exchange gifts and crap...Losers

an entirely commercial holiday that serves no real purpose. It forces people in relationships to buy each other gifts that at any other time of the year they wouldn't think of buying each other. For the most part these gifts are grossly overpriced and cheaply made. After you spend all this money on gifts you now have to spend some more money on dinner at a fancy restaraunt were the food will probally suck and you will end up stopping at McDonald's later anyway. The one good this about this Holiday...I've you followed all the guidlines and spent the right amount of money, chances are you are going to get lucky!
