I hate valentines day! Not because I'm lonely or have no valentine, not because it's a waste of money that could go towards better causes but because it's not a special day. There is nothing romantic about flowers or chocolates on a day when half the population are probably receiving the same gifts with the same messages of love and devotion on their cards. Sure it's nice to know someone or someone's were thinking about you but mostly because they were forced to. I want to feel special and loved every day of the year, not because you feel compelled to participate in this silly celebration. Hand pick me flowers or even leave a sweet note on any other day of the year and you'd melt my heart but not today.
Now I fine myself faced with this big fancy gift that I can only imagine how much it cost and I'm angry at myself for not appreciating it... But I can't, no matter how hard I try. Sure I said thank you in attempts to not hurt their feelings but I'm a terrible actor and I'm sure my disdain showed.
Now my friends have named me The Grinch of Valentines Day - I think I can live with that though. 💋❤️
