Valentine’s Day is one of those really interesting holidays that you can love and hate at the same time. Let’s face it- there is a lot of pressure surrounding this time of year. If you are in a relationship there is the pressure of figuring out what to do (sure, she says she doesn’t want anything for Valentine’s day…but does she really mean it?) and if you aren’t in a relationship, there’s the stress of finding a valentine, or making sure that you DON’T have a valentine so that you won’t send out mixed signals and get yourself in a whole lot of drama. It makes me tired just to type all of it.
