Valentines day approaches friends! I hope you are all getting in the mood for romance because there is someone out there who wants you to buy a present this year, someone very special. The shopkeeper.
Yes folks you can guarantee that the TV adverts for Saint Valentines Day this year are going to be as mushy and as low priced as every year. They’re all waiting for you to show them how stupid you are by giving in to the desire to please another by getting a Christmas present. If there ever was anything to make me want to be single, its valentines day, and Christmas, and birthdays. I guess I’m quite a scrooge.
I can’t believe the length some people go to in the name of love. With the richer and more famous people, the romantic acts become more extreme. It’s bad enough people will dedicate their lives to religion which is baseless scientifically, others fall into the trap of staying with someone forever, in extremes even if the person is horrible to them and wont return their misguided feelings. Romeo and Juliet move the hell over!
I can’t actually remember ever getting or giving gifts on February the 14th myself, which may bias my opinion. Not that it matters as if I was foolish enough to be in love with someone why on earth I’d restrict myself to saying it one day of the year is beyond me.
This year I’ve come up with a novel solution though, I’m going to be MY OWN valentine. Not a mad concept as it sounds, I know the gifts I get will be appreciated, I know exactly what my valentine wants, and in fairness I know it’s the little things that please my valentine, chocolates, games and beer. Well its Thursday so maybe also I’ll head down to kinky and dance with myself too! Sounds like a mental day to be honest!
