In my
opinion Valentine’s Day is one of the most worthless holidays that we celebrate
in the United States of America. We, as a nation, could have picked any number
of better things to have a holiday for! Come on, we could have a holiday for a
much better reason than “love.” It has conditioned the women of our society to
expect a gift for Valentine’s Day. They think that if they do not get a gift on
Valentine’s Day, then they aren’t loved. I just think that in a relationship
there should not be a day of the year where the guy gets the girl a valentines
present. Instead the guy should be original and be giving gifts on other days
and not be obligated to get gifts on only one day of the year. The whole
concept is nice, but if you think about it, the guy should be giving gifts as a
show of love way more than just one time a year. Hopefully I’m not in the
minority on that opinion, but the amount of guys that do not appreciate and
love their girlfriend or wife is depressingly on the rise. Plus, the surprise
of an unexpected gift would make it even better for both involved in my
opinion! I think the expectation for the guy has grown into something that
wasn’t originally intended by whoever created this awful holiday! However this is just my opinion and doesn’t
represent the view of what a girl would think about valentine’s day.
