Why Some People Hate Valentine’s Day
Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
Valentine’s Day is stupid.
And RCLS is too.
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, enjoy this goodness.
Because it probably reminds you of some ex.
And why he or she is an ex. Last year, you two probably had a romantic day together. Rose petals, candles, the whole nine yards. As February 14 approaches, you start to remember with a smile…and then you get annoyed as you remember why you broke things off. *frowns and pouts*
Because it feels like a formality.
It’s like the Martin Luther King Day volunteer projects. Sure its nice that the work gets done, but people should be donating their time to good causes regardless of the holiday. Everyone wants do something all nice and special for their boos because its Valentine’s Day. Its not to say that the feelings aren’t really there, but you should want to make your boo feel special without being prompted by a commercial holiday. I always felt obligated to do something back when I was with my boo. Displays of affection shouldn’t feel forced or come pre-planned. Go beyond the Russell Stover chocolate.

Because the boo doesn’t sustain the displays of affection during the rest of year.
He’s uber romantic and thoughtful. She breaks out the sexy nighty and doesn’t wear the headscarf to bed. He cooks for the first time. She cooks for the second time. Someone does something they’ve never done before. Maybe thats a good thing, but why wait til Sunday? Swing from the ceiling fan and make her knees buckles earlier this week. Cupid shouldn’t have to inspire you to do that.
Because spending Valentine’s Day with your homegirls is cute, but a little sad.
And spending it with your boys is suss. Two years ago, a friend of a friend had some single-ladies-thing at her house on Valentine’s Day. I loathed the idea. It was like a celebration of singleness, which is “fine” on a regular day. But on a day when people who are casually thronxing dating or in relationships are boo’d up, its just another reminder that you aren’t. Can’t we just have a regular girl’s night out? Oh wait. No…
Because you can’t go anywhere and have a lovey-dovey free day.
You can’t just treat February 14th like any other day of the week. If you to go out to eat, there will be couples being all touchy-feely right in your line of vision. If you to the grocery store, there will be all this red and pink themed ish on sale, so you feel like you have to buy it. Going to get some cookies? Gotta see the stupid heart shaped ones. Want some regular Hersey’s kisses? Nope sorry, gotta get the pack wrapped in pink and red. Thankfully, the chocolate still tastes the same.
Because some ignorant fools still call it ValentiMe’s Day.
This.annoys.me.so.much! I just look at these people and can’t help but give them the O_O face. I know you have seen the word written over and over again. I blame this on poor schoolin’ and friends who are either equally as ignorant, or who don’t care enough to correct their homie. S.M.H.
So to all you people out there sending your boos gifts made of milk chocolate goodness, please put some thought into it. And for all you single folks, be happy you’re saving yourself some money. What do you all think about Valentine’s Day? Do your feelings change about the day when you boo’d up versus when you are single? Men, what do you all want on Sunday besides thronxington? Tell me, please.
