Should you happen to not be in a relationship at this time of year, you don’t get an easy ride either. In fact, for those people unfortunate enough to be made single around this time of year, Valentine’s Day can be a painful reminder. Everywhere you look there are the cards, flowers and chocolates etc. in the shops. On the radio and the TV there are endless messages of love and romance. It really makes you feel very much more lonely than you would at any other time of year.
Actually, the whole spectacle just irritates me; particularly the way couples just lap it up and get sucked into the whole thing. It’s nothing more than yet another commercially driven extravaganza just like Christmas and Easter.
Valentine’s Day has become just another excuse to spend money on junk that has no substantial value. Spend your money instead on a few spontaneous meals now and then and a nice bottle of wine, or even better save up and have a nice holiday together.
