Now lets get this straight, I like the idea of a day that is dedicated to couples and their undying love.
But have you noticed lately, how Valentine's Day and love in general turned into a mass market deal?
All these heart shaped cards and candles and everything else with "I love you" written on them - not only written, better yet thrown around as some kind of a crappy slogan, it just makes me not believe in sincerity of people these days. I find everything so typical and downright copied, not to mention how some of us choose to act during this day.
I mean...okay, you are in love. Congratulations. Your man got you flowers and ... (insert any typical Valentine's Day gift here), but for the love of all holy, it's not an award that you should shove into everyone's face.
It's not a competition nor a hunt for valentine cards from secret admirers either. It makes me kinda sick to see how "plastic" society turned this holiday to be, narrowing it down to few standard things that should be done.
Well, here is some big news, when you are in love, every day is Valentine's Day and "I love you" is not something you throw around, and your first thought after receiving flowers is definitely not the "I am gonna instagram this, so other bitches be jealous".
haha this is all so true! i have always found it weird that for any occasion people will give each other cards with a message written my somebody else haha! xo
