Valentine's Day. This is considered one of the most romantic

days of the year but in many ways it's also the most forced romance day ever.

The history of the day goes back to the Roman times when young men were forbidden to marry before they went to war, and priest who was later Sainted who helped to change it.

People today both look forward to and also dread the day. And why is this? For many it is an opportunity to share words and feelings with the person you truly care for, but for some it adds pressure.

Personally I love romance and all things that show and demonstrate affection, so I look forward to this day, and I would love to know how you feel about it.

Happy Valentine's Day from me to you!

@lucia Valentine's Day for the most part is a good day, where men all over western countries are "encouraged" to give flowers, cards with words that say nice things and candy to their partners.

Valentine’s Day is nice but to me, we don't need a day to remind us to appreciate someone. We should appreciate and love them every single day. Happy Valentine’s Day!

@Jodyce I totally agree with you Jo, and a hug, an "I love you" and something thoughtful can happen anytime you are inspired. Happy Valentine's Day to you as well!

I love Valentines Day ever since I was little, sharing Valentines was so fun in Elementary School! Now I take it as a day to share with my significant other but here in the USA we also give gifts to other people we love and are really close to like best friends, siblings, parents.

@Ale 은지 it's really nice that you embrace the spirit and meaning of the event. I remember giving out the paper Valentines in school. My kids did up until grade 6 I think

It would be nice if it were a Valentine’s Day everyday.

@stacey I believe that the idea of Valentine's Day can be everyday, maybe something different each day. A long time ago I was in love with a girl and I got her flowers twice a week for a year.
