I mean, I'm not against it, but I'm not gung ho about it either. I think it's because in the years before I met J, I was with guys who just didn't give a fuck about Valentine's Day either. Plus I've never really been lovey dovey in my entire life. I'm not terribly girly. Just girly enough to appreciate the sweet little things that J does for me ALL the time. He doesn't save the romance for just one day. He makes me smile and treats me like gold every.single.day. That being said, he did get me a beautiful card and a bag of Reese's eggs, because he knows I go crazy for Reese's eggs. I don't need jewelry or anything flashy just because it's February 14th. BFD. I don't even really wear jewelry save for a few rings that I like and maybe one necklace. I'm just not into it.
My point is, Valentine's Day is a marketing scheme. It's a nice thought, but like I stated, you shouldn't need a holiday to do sweet shit for the person you love, and it isn't about money or fancy gifts. It's the person you're with and the thought they put into things not just that day, but everyday. Sure, they can buy you stuff, but if they're just buying it to say they bought it, it's worthless. My Reese's eggs may not mean a whole lot to some other girl and there are some ungrateful bitches that would flip shit if their man bought them a bag of candy and nothing else. They don't deserve nice guys anyway... *unwraps another egg*
