I HATE VALENTINE`S DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is the most selfish holiday in the world!!!!!!!!!
only boyfriends and girlfriends celebrate it. what about the single ones???
In M�xico we call it "the day of love and friendship" but COME ON, is all about roses, little hearts, teddy bears with signs saying "I love you".
You might think I`m jealous, well, YES I AM!!!!, I hate when I see happy couples in valentin�s day, I get mad when I see roses in a girl`s hands and also I get mad when I see girls receiving presents from their boyfriends LOL , GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Ya know when am I gonna enjoy it and love it? when I get a boyfriend , but meanwhile, I`ll be praying that God makes that Fox and Bush make a law in USA and M�xico about not celebrating that day.
I might wear black clothes tomorrow, who`s with me? LOLOL.
ya know what else

I LOVE YOU ELO. WILL YOU BE MY FRIEND?
I do know what you mean. We have been married 21 years and have never done anything diffrent. Just a day to spend too much money on flowers and candy.

Blah.

There are those who agree with you Elo. It's just another day where the candy and card companies make money.
What a stupid holiday.

Couples should be doing special stuff for each other all year, not just on one day.
We should have a special singles holiday.

Hey Shell, I agree with you. It's a holiday to make money - and sell lots of chocolate, hehehe.
Hey Elo - I know it's tuff when you are single - just imagine all the people who've lost loved ones or the ones that got divorced. Sometimes those holidays are sad. When Warren's wife divorced him and the divorce was final it was on Valentines Day two years ago.
You are not alone feeling this way. I remember never celebrating Valentines because I agree with Shell, couples should love one another every single day and do special things for each other, not necessarily buying stuff, but loving one another. How about loving the Lord - every single day - not just Valentines day.
Elo, just remember you are special to Jesus and HE loves you and HE is your "valentine" year around, day after day, hour for hour, minute for minute.....
Huuugggssss........
i`m so glad

He's probably talking about Debbie's smileys.

Don't worry, it's over for another year.

I'll say something about single people knowing full well I heard the same thing and didn't believe it when I was single. You really need to enjoy the things about being single while you have a chance, because when you get married you're married for GOOD! Marriage is great, don't get me wrong, but there are some things that you have as a single that you don't have as a married person. You can spend your money however you want, for example. If you want to move or go on the mission field and you have the resources, you can pick up and go. You don't have to worry about when someone else wants to sleep or get up. You don't have to buy birth control.

hehe
I realize several of those things are less true unless you live alone, but you get my drift. V-day has so many possibilities of being a DISASTER, even for couples... what if I buy the wrong gift? What if I pick the wrong restaurant? What if we can't get into
50 First Dates?? It's a tough holiday. It has potential to be really nice for a couple who doesn't put pressure on each other, but it has so much potential to be hurtful. D'OH... why can't anniversaries be enough? The restaurants are less crowded on my anniversary, and flowers are cheaper.

Yep.

I've always thought I'm much better off not being married and sort of wishing I was sometimes than being married and sort of wishing I wasn't.
I actually do have a lot of fun being single, and I do know I'd never be happy being married if I'm not happy being single. Valentine's Day just gets on my nerves.
And besides, the team of Elo and Shell had to come up with something to post about.

Valentine

Hey all!
I have to agree with Elo here. There is nothing good about Valentine's day. Here are a few reasons why:
Singles feel HORRIBLE with everyone implying they are somehow inferior
Couples (especially men) feel obligated to "prove" their love in materialistic ways
It actually HURTS romance in a relationship. Whereas a guy might otherwise be more inclined to be spontaneous at other times throughout the year, an official holiday makes him feel FAR less guilty about not doing anything during the rest of the year.
So do America a favor and BAN CORPORATE VALENTINE'S DAY next year. Give your significant-other a nice, romantic evening at home. Send the kids out instead of yourselves. Don't buy cards or candy or flowers or jewelry. Treat it like a date. An honest-to-goodness, old-fashioned date. Then buy the flowers, candy, and jewelry a few days later at a huge discount!
Catch you guys later.

I enjoy being single Michael

, but valentine`s day makes me feel bad about it hehehe because I can`t celebrate it ya know, kinda feel left out ya know?.
I believe love should be express all year not just valentines. I would appreciate more if the guy makes something nice in the less unexpected day than in valentine`s ya know. All those gifts guys suppose to give to girls makes me feel like if they were doing it as an "obbligation" ya know.
I so would like to have someone in my life but up to know, until God`s time, I`m Ok

I enjoy this because maybe one day I won`t have it anymore, I don`t know.
