  1. I think valentines day is a pretty interesting idea.I mean why wouldn't we want valentines day? One day were people show their love and affection is great idea as it could help some people build up the courage to ask someone out, propose or whatever. Seeing everyone else doing it could help convince a person n to go for it and do what they wanted to for a long time. Overall I think it's a great idea.

  2. Valentines does not have an impact on my life so I have no negative or positive opinion about it. I do not really see the need for valentines day since there are more important days like your anniversary also if there was only one day to show love that would kind of be lame. I think the best memory that I have about valentines was in elementary mostly because a bunch of people would just bring cinnamon hearts and there would be those kids who just decided to take 20 all at once.

    1. Valentine's day was fun in my elementary school, though we were not allowed to bring treats.

  3. Valentines has never impacted my life in any way so war therefore I do not have any strong feelings or opinions about it. I do feel that Valentines is a day to show love to your partner and make them feel very good. The only real memories of Valentines is the ones with my parents. My dad always surprises my mom with big flowers and chocolates for the whole family. Sometimes we do shop for chocolate the day after Valentines where everything is half price.

  4. Valentine's Day is a special holiday for the people who are in a relationship (married, dating, etc). Some people show their love by buying chocolates, teddy bears, *rings*, etc, and I really have no hate towards this holiday. People get into the spirit and show their appreciation and love towards each other. I like how there's 1 special day of the year each year to really bring out the love, but it shouldn't be just that day that you show them how much you love them, everyday should be full of happiness if you really love them and it's a healthy relationship, but of course there will be the bad days but your s.o can help with that.

  5. I think that Valentines day is a special day for people to demonstrate their love to their loved one. Even though theres only this one special day for people in a relationship to show their love, people show how much they love their spouse pretty much everyday. I like that theres one specific day but I believe that people in a relationship demonstrate their love to each other everyday but not to the same extent that they do on Valentines day. I know that on Valentines day, my dad buys my mom chocolate and flowers and my mom buys my dad something that he likes like coffee and chocolate. I don't really have any memories of Valentines day and if I could remember one, it would be waking up in the morning, going downstairs and seeing a big bouquet of flowers with a card attached. I don't have any bad memories of Valentines day and I think thats because every year is like the same thing in my family.

  6. I think Valentine's day is good for those who the day actually applies to, otherwise those who are alone feel sad. I also think that you should show your love for the one you love everyday of your life, not just one day of the year. I don't have any good or bad valentine's memories, but I do remember in elementary school everyone would bring in candies and little cards and give them to everyone. This day is really special for people who can appreciate it in my opinion. I usually do literally nothing on Valentine's day. My friends and I usually hang out and appreciate each other, and don't care that we don't have a significant other to share the day with, because we have each other anyway.

  7. I have never really had a good or bad valentine's day memory. It was fun exchanging little cards in elementary school, but otherwise, there was never a special occasion.
    I think valentine's day is a very nice occasion. While there is no reason to say " I love you" to any other person on any other day,I see no reason to not have a day to celebrate it. Just enjoy the day anyway you want.

  8. I don’t really understand the point of valentine’s day, i find it’s just some lame holiday. However i do have some good valentines memories. My mom always gets me a lot of candys and chocolates. So does my aunts and uncles. Also my parents always order chinese food on valentines and i love chinese food. Overall i think valentine’s day is a odd holiday to have but it does benefit me quite a bit.

  9. I am lonely... So normally I would say that Valentines day is pointless... to me. But I do like the idea of having a day where you can celebration ones love for someone else. I appreciate this day like any other celebration, ether it be Easter, Christmas or Halloween. I no I do not have any memories for Valentines day.

  10. Valentines Day is kind of pointless because it is a day where you express your love for someone, but if you're already in a relationship shouldn't you be expressing your love for that someone every day?, that doesn't mean you have to buy them something every single day but doing something or saying something to express your love for them is enough. I like Valentines Day because I like buying stuff for people, like my mom and my friends. I don't think valentines day is just for couples, if you love your friends you can express it too.

  11. I think that valentines day is stupid. You can ask somebody out or say I love you or whatever any other day. What is the point of making one special day for this. Seriously, what makes this day any other different from tomorrow or the day after? When it comes to memories, I cant say I have any, I didn't mind the free candy though

  12. My opinion on valentines day is that it's a cute holiday. I don't really have anything against it by I am not crazy about it. I totally feel that you should show your love to that someone special everyday. There shouldn't just be one day. I just remember in elementary school getting so many goodie bags filled with candies and chocolate. That was the good life and I miss that.

  13. I think Valentine’s day is overrated. I find it dumb how there has to be 1 day to show your love to someone, you should show them your love everyday and not a specific day. I do find the concept nice but it’s not a necessary holiday that we need to celebrate. What is good about Valentine’s day is all the chocolate that goes on sale after the holiday.

  14. I love Valentines day, I find it such a cute holiday. I mean I do not have a boyfriend or anything to spend it with but it's still a really cute time. I find the vibes around are really nice on valentines, and sometimes I even get chocolates from my friends or teachers. Valentines is still a blast and a half even if you don't have a significant other. Also the day after valentines all the chocolates at the pharmaprix go on liquidation and who doesn't love that.

  15. I think that if you're in a relationship everyday should be like valentines day ;) meaning that you shouldnt wait for a spisific day to show your love for someone. I think it's cool to have a day where everyone in a relationship has a day to show their love for that other person but it also sucks for single people who have to see all the love if they can't find anyone. But they can suck it up for a day

  16. I don't see the point of valentines day because we should spread love on every day of the year not just one. Honestly the only real purpose it serves is to sell chocolates and other things. However I will stop those who enjoy valentines from doing so it is still a nice time of year with all the chocolates and everything.

  17. I think Valentine's day is a good holiday. I think this because on Valentine's day, people show their love by doing something special towards someone they care for. I know you can do this any other day of the year but Valentine's day pushes people to try hard to make their significant other feel special. I don't really have a special Valentine's day memory and I treat Valentine's day just like any other day.

  18. I feel like valentine's day is the dumbest holiday ever created what is the point of it when you make love to someone. I would not care as long as I can do what I can do for a living and do whatever I want with money. I don't have a good or bad memory of valentine's day. I don't really care so yeah

  19. I honestly think Valentine's day is way overrated. It's stressful that one day is designated to affection at times. Sure it's nice to show appreciation but what if you're not having a good day? Maybe you're not in the mood to be all happy and nice. That being said, I think if you love someone, tell them or acknowledge it whatever day you want. It's irrational to wait until Valentine's Day just to show affection. I don't really have many memories of Valentine's day. Just this year though all my friends were raving about single awareness day and they all jokingly reminded me of how I couldn't relate. It was different this year, but not bad or good. Just another normal day at school. No significant value to me.

  20. Personally, I don't really care much about valentine's day and I don't do much on that day, but I can definitely see how other people LOVE(you see what I did there) it. One of the reasons I don't really do anything is because I am not the type of person to have a girlfriend.

  21. In my humble opinion, Valentine’s Day is pointless and overrated. Lonely people get more depressed, and couples get more nauseating. What’s not to love about it? Valentine’s Day is yet another commercial holiday for companies to profit off of. While the concept of having one day to express your love for someone is sweet, shouldn’t you show your affections everyday? I still appreciate the existence of this holiday because that means another day when at least one person will be handing out free candy. Plus, chocolate’s a lot cheaper today.

    valentine's day is a very neutral holiday in my opinion. I don't consider it as a holiday unless you have a significant other. For some of the more emotional people it is a big deal to be single on valentines day and it makes them sad. for me valentines day has never made a difference to me. It is a good selling point for chocolate companies and it gives people an excuse to be extra lovey and otherwise it is just another normal day.

  23. I feel like this holiday is something that we should not take a seriously as we do. It is a day dedicated to love which I can respect but I don't like that everyone complains about the fact that they don't have a special someone. like listen man it is the day of love, if you want a relationship, go get it, don't complain about the fact that other people have it.

  24. Valentine's day is taken like some sort of holiday it shouldn't be. I think that if you are in love with someone, there shouldn't be just one day to express, and show that you love them. Some people try so hard too to find someone for valentine's as if it's a due date. I just don;t think it's as important of a day as people make it out to be.

    1. Totally. I even know some people who count how many valentines days they have been together with someone.

  25. I feel like a lot of people feel the pressure or the need to celebrate Valentine’s Day with that special someone in their life. Many people assume that the holiday is celebrated only by those in happy relationships. This holiday instead is not only meant for couples, it’s meant to celebrate love in general. I hate when people complain about Valentine’s Day or about the fact that they are “alone” this Valentine’s Day. There are so many people that probably love you wether it be family members, friends or even pets so the fact that those people have the nerve to say that their “alone” when in reality they are surrounded by an overwhelming amount of people that love them is truly aggravating. Anyways hope all you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day !

  26. I think Valentines day is a fun Idea. It is a way to show the person you love that they are someone special. But gosh darn all those people who have a lover and talk about it all the time with their friends. Shut up already, we get it, you have a boyfriend. I think it is their way of validation to be better than other people, but I kind of think it's a nasty way to act around your friends and it's getting old.

  27. honestly I feel like people hate on Vday just because they are salty because they don't have a special someone. even tho this is my first year having someone, in the past I never really minded it, go be cute with your bf or gf!

  28. Honestly I feel like that Valentines day is kind of pointless because there should not be a dedicated day to celebrate and profess your love to the person that you are in a relationship with because it should not matter because you should be showing that you love and care about that person every once in a while otherwise what's the point?
