it's just a holiday so stores and brands like Hallmark and Hershey's can sell products since there is such a huge gap between holidays. Why do so many people buy into a Capitalist-made fake holiday just so the big businesses can take your money just to make you think this day is important?? It's not and it's only celebrated in this country because it's a new holiday that was created by Capitalists, it's all set up.

In the olden days Valentines was a day to remember the priest who had secretly performs marriage ceremonies in church,but was later found out by the king,as during the time of war they required all males to go for war.but for those young men who doesn't want to die in war,opt for marriage as a way out.thus the priest was sentenced to death.In the cell where he stayed one of the cell guards daughter took pity/fell in love with him and before he was beheaded sent him a letter,with love from your Valentine.
Modern day thinking is an excuse to fuss and buy presents and unfortunately also a reason to get laid.the history part about the history of Valentine might be wrong as I've only got to say it once a year.you can get more info in wikipedia/msn for a better understanding.

Its not just for that although it does seem that way. It should be a holiday to appreciate the ones you love, but it has been turned commercial. Not all people have bought into it though, I for one still believe in homemade cards, people like them better anyways.

You should try being a little less bitter, and just relax
