I'm anti-Valentine's Day.
I don't declare that today should be black day. I don't think that it should be abolished. It's not because I'm single.
I like falling in love. I like being in love. I like men. I like romance. I just don't understand why there needs to be one day in the year that my significant other proves his love to me. And what if he were a normal male, what if he forgot, what if he doesn't want to run out and buy a fifty dollar bouquet of half-dozen roses? Does that mean that he doesn't love me? No.
What matters to me is that when I'm down, he hugs me. When I'm missing summer, he buys me flowers. When we fight, he doesn't walk away forever. That's what matters to me. Not that he remembers Valentine's Day, buys me heart-shaped jewelry that I may not like, and over-priced roses.
That's why I'm anti-Valentine's Day.
