Is Valentine's Day a big deal for you?

As for now I don't have a boyfriend so it means nothing to me.I don't really like it because there's nothing for me to celebrate.There's no need to celebrate it.But,sometimes,I just hang out with my friends.Or simply stay at home do what I want.

I can't say that Valentine's Day is really that big a deal for me. Then again, the fact I'm single probably has a lot to do with that fact though lol. But no, it's not. I mean, it's not like I do anything different on that particular day than I do any other day.

I don't think Valentine's Day is that big of a deal. My girlfriend always said that the holiday was created by Hallmark and that if you didn't know you loved a person February 14 would help you know it. That's true.

Valentine's day, you know i had this entire rant and its the same rant I tend to do in real life, but I think that I toned it down just a little bit. I just really think that Valentine's day is one of those holiday's that has been blown up to be a bit too serious and has made people a bit too greedy. Which is the ultimate irony considering that this holiday is supposed to celebrate love and affection and all that gooey mushy stuff. Really I think that it has lead to a lot of greed, because people tend to expect something from their significant other. If they do not get it, well let's just say that more often or not they're in the dog house. And that doghouse contains pitbulls, rottweilers, and dobermans. It is really a twisted holiday. Still I don't begrudge anyone who wants to celebrate it, but I will not ever celebrate the holiday of Valentine's day.

The past 2 years I have held Valentine Parties and they have been a great success. The people who came, either with their partner or alone, all joined in the fun and the spirit of the occassion. A theme was never set, but people would turn up in red and pink clothing. I would sell red roses - real and silk ones, the choice was up to the purchaser - to any one who wanted to buy them and all the money went to charity, again, this was a big success. However, this year it will be a very different kind of night, being half way around the World from my partner and now living in a different culture, Valentines Day for me this year will just pass by except for a phone call to my partner to say, "Hi." The culture where I now live is too fast to even think about bringing happiness to others and it seems to be all me, me, me. And here, Valentines Day, is something between just 2 people excluding the rest of the World and an excuss for another night of getting drunk down the pub.

my husband and i do not make a big deal out of it. We have been married for 7 years, and we focus our money on our anniversary, to be able to get out of the house see a movie and have a date night. My friend called it singles awareness day for eons. I wonder if he still does now that he is married?

I find the whole thing silly and commercialized. It will be a big day for flower shops, restaurants, sweet shops and motels because they will be overrun by couples wanting to celebrate the day. I will be at work on that day, so my boyfriend and I plan to celebrate on another day. You can make everyday Valentines day without having to go with everyone else.

oh! it's sad that you just see this wonderful lovely day in such a narrow context. You can have a meaningful one even WITHOUT a boyfriend or girlfriend. For sure you have your family who awaits a special show-off of you love for them on this day, even in the most simple things.

I've never been big on Valentine's Day. I agree with you, I don't think people should need an excuse to buy their partners gifts and shower them in love. LOL. But then again I am single for the second year in a row on Valentine's Day (unless my love life picks up..soon) so of course I'm going to be a little cynical. But it definitely seems like a Hallmark Holiday if you ask me, all about getting us to spend our money.

yes my dear friend it is a very important day for everyone.it is not only for couple also for everyone who loves any one in this lovely world.i love my mother so much so on this day i want to show how much i love her.not for one day i love her every single sec of my life but in this special day i can show her that.that is why it is special for me. thank you so much.

hi alamgirl... it is not a big deal for me. everyday is valentine, because we have to share our love not only for our lover but also with the people surround us. but it is oke if somebody want to celebrate it.

For those who are madly in love, yes it matters haha. But will it be a big deal? No. There are some countries wherein valentine's day are not actually being celebrated...so it's okay if it will not be celebrated. But of course, receiving flowers from the one you love will be sweet :-)

No, Valentine's day has never been special to me even though I do have a very loving and wonderful husband of twelve years already. In my humble opinion it is just another commercially enhanced day to ensure people spend their hard earned money on useless trinkets.

I think Valentine's Day would be special for both couples and singles alike. For couples it would be a day of expressing their love and care as partners. For singles I think it would be a day of going out with their also single friends and just have fun! =D

I love Valentines day...it's another excuse to send a little gift of love to my family and show a few coworkers some kindness...I am making cupcakes to take to work for those who might not get anything for Valentines day...personally I don't care if I get anything....I love the giving!

well .. to be honest.. people just wanted a day to celebrate certain special things in life..for example ..14 novemeber children day then we have mom day ..and father day.. and then people thought why not make a day for couples.. and henceforth, The birth of Valentine Day .. just making a day special doesnt mean u have to do all those pricelses rituals..when you are in Love, Every single day spent is worth it and lively.. and Valentine day doesnt quite makes a difference..

yes it's a big deal for me. I think all people should celebrate this day. This day not only for couples or love birds. I believe this day for love. And love exist in every relationship. So we all should celebrate it. All day in a year we are busy so this day we should spend with our love one. It could be your family also. So i celebrate it.

Hi. I guess it is just one more day to be extra sentimental and shower your loved ones with gifts they would love to receive. But honestly speaking, I don't care about that much either. Nor does my husband. We do go out on ordinary days or on special ones like his birthday or mine or our wedding day. So those days are much more special to us than these days.

I treat Valentine's Day very seriously this year because I just find the one I love. She is the first girl I fell in love and I want to remain this relationship forever. I want to make her happy everyday especially Valentine's Day. I have already begun to make plan for that day. I want to make sure that she will never forget this day in her life~~
