My Take on Valentine's Day

- Just saying....the biggest problem with Valentine’s Day is that it is the only day the best comes out of most relationships. Some people are really looking forward to it because it’s the only day that their significant other treats them with affection. If you think you are worth getting pampered, flowers, chocolate and gifts only once a year, that is all good and dandy. Wouldn’t you like to have the same type of treatment all year long though?

Why can’t your loved one receive the same kind of treatment, love, care and so on? Well, my take on Vday is that a love that is only shown once a year is not real love. Love shouldn’t be expressed to its fullest potential only on a holiday. I can’t wait one day out of the year to tell my fiancee that I love him and buy him something nice and wait for next year to do the same thing over. Well let me tell you guys, I wouldn’t have a man in my life if that were the case. Something to think about.

 People will go above and beyond on Valentine's Day....but it makes me just not want to celebrate it all! I mean, I try my hardest to make my man happy on the daily. Whether that means, buying him his favorite cereal when I know he's running low (I don't live with him, but he mentions to me how much he loves his Coco Puffs Brownie Crunch), or buying him his favorite movie on DVD cause his nieces and nephews broke the only copy he had. It's an every day thing. Love is not about sporadically showing affection, or showing love when there's something in it for you (oh I'll get laid if I get her diamonds on Valentine's Day)....it's about buying chocolate covered strawberries for your man on a Thursday night when it's raining so you can cuddle up under a blanket and watch a movie while eating those supposedly-only-cool-for-Valentine's-day berries. Until next time....
