V Day………..


   Once again it is February 14th…..better known as Valentines Day. Here we go again with a day filled with high expectations, stress, and for some the feeling of being 100% unwanted or appreciated.

   I know today is a day that should be based around love and all kisses and rainbows but lets get real….Valentines Day is really nothing more then a over commercialized marketing scheme that tells you to spend money buying cards, flowers, jewelry and candy. Yes I know for some people this really is a day about celebrating their love but for most of us this is not true. Women get mad when their men forget or don’t get the hints (ex: a bracelet? I wanted a ring!!) And men get frustrated trying to get her something that will make her happy and not piss her off. Then there are the single people out there that just get everyone else’s love thrown into their face like a big fat slap that they are alone.

    Yes I have been a participant of this holiday in the past, and with the right person I might even go out for a movie or dinner and do the whole V day thing again….but without expectations. For me personally I’d rather celebrate my love for someone with that person on an anniversary or another day that is special to us, not on a day that I have to share with the rest of the masses.

  I know that this might not be the opinion of many people and that’s okay. I’m just putting it out there for those of you who understand my stance and feel the same way. I will let people be happy today…if they actually are. I just ask that you don’t read this blog or talk to me while celebrating sweetest day…..Cause I won’t be able to hold back on that joke.
Just saying!!!
