Am i being too critical abt this Valentine's Day program?

Question

many schools have a Valentine's Day program which involves the student council distributing flowers & chocolates form one student to another(that is,if you did pay for it).but is this,really neceassary?

my school does that too,& today there were a lot of misunderstandings & confusions.my crush apparently thought that I had sent him a "Friendship" rose annoymously,whereas i was never a person to do things in a round-abt manner).

a couple of my guy friends played a joke on my best friend,Anjuli-they sent this guy a rose saying that it's from her.he received the rose,& then it was taken away because she denied sending it.(imagine how he would have felt)
only a couple of girls got roses in my whole grade,compared to the guys.(are traditions being reversed?).some people even send flowers to themselves,so that they can brag abt how many they got.(is it a competition?)& of course,there was also a lot of people who didn't get anything.(i wonder how many broken hearts went home today)

am i judging this too harshly?

in addition,some people might think that there's someone who likes them,only to have their hopes destroyed.(isn't that playing with a person's feelings?)

Answer 1

That's not right. A person should not be allowed to purchase the flowers or candy and put someone else's name on them. Maybe bring it up to the student council. Some kids take rejection really hard and have a hard time dealing with their feelings.

Answer 2

Valentine's Day is/has continually been lots like that, exceptionally in college. in many situations, a majority of those activities are done as fund-raisers for the corporate accomplishing them and that is not any longer a nasty aspect. what's a nasty aspect is how some scholars use it as a technique to be advise, how some people get their hopes blown way out of percentage in trouble-free terms to be disillusioned and some people fairly experience that in the adventure that they don't get some type of present/flower through that route then they are one way or the different "cheated". In some approaches it is not any diverse that electing a homecoming queen & courtroom - each and each and every of the "favourite ladies" are the winners - till you get an fairly immature crew mutually and vote someone in so that you'll publicly make relaxing of them. in many colleges, an similar holds actual for who makes it onto the cheerleading squad, the pom squad, etc. it is gloomy, besides the undeniable fact that that is the way issues are once you deal with a human/immaturity aspect and that runs highly rampant in severe colleges. at the same time as all is asserted and done.....it means highly darn little once you get previous the initial disappointment.
