Why I Don't Celebrate Valentine's Day. by Toks2008(m): 7:50pm On Feb 13, 2017
What exactly does Febuary 14th stand for?...Lovers day, or just a regular date on the calender?

I guess valentine's day is overrated and only those who are into forced love and affection set out a special day to celebrate what should be a regular subconcious effortless act.

Genuine couples don't need to celebrate Valentine's Day in order to validate their bond, because Valentine's Day is just a day that has become a highly commercialized day of forced love.

Having a date on this day has become a status symbol more than anything else. It means that you're somehow better, and more successful than your single friends which is obviously outrageous.

So many single people tend to feel odd on this day simply because they're without a significant other.

Real couples feel zero pressure to participate in this one day celebration of forced love.

In my world,i believe there are so many other things to celebrate than a calendar day that dictates how to show your love but real love and unwavering commitment to that special person should be celebrated far beyond a day.

I would rather spend my day doing other productive activities than be pressured into celebrating a meaningless and highly commercialized societal norm in the name of valentine's day.

But for those who still believe in St Valentine's day, I wish you all a happy celebration.

Ur opinion tho.
Although there is no public holiday allocated 4 val. But and nevertheless, is a day worthy to be celebrated with your love ones. U've gat to show 'em some kind of special love you know.

Anyway, That's how we roll.

You must show love...you must have time for your Bae today...you must buy gift,go out or spend time together even if you have not been doing that due to lack of time or lack of genuine affection...isn't that a forced love?

No be small thing.
