I have never had any real disappointments on Valentine's Day, because I've never expected much from it. I see it as a made-up holiday. I found out as a young teen-ager that it was originally a Catholic Saint's Day, and people used to just make cards and write notes. Then the commercial side came into it, and now T.V. ads make it into a big deal so you will buy their stuff.
When my husband and first met, we opted out because it sets you up for high expectations and possible disappointment. I just think of it as a good time to remember what it is I love about him and to tell him that he is appreciated.
And I see it as an excellent chance to buy great chocolate on sale on February 15th!
Valentine's Day isn't important because it's what you do every day that matters.
