Do you "do" Valentines Day?
kiss
No ... it's purely commercial. One shouldn't need to be reminded to show your partner that you love them. It should be any time, any day, and not only on 14th February. So my hubby and I will be off to bootcamp tonight like any other Monday night. Doesn't mean that we love each other less.

I totally agree with you Patricia, Every day is Valentines day in my book as I tell my wife every day I Love YOU!!!!
Another " commercial day "
But I also say if someone sends you a valentine , accept it graciously not with expectation ,, thats the problem with all the commercial pressure ,, people end up feeling obliged , or people expect .. thats no good ...
And yes also if someone really means something in your life and you want to do it from the heart merely using the day as a channel to do it then do it ,
without obligation , without expectation , without bowing too much to the " commercial aspect "
Oh dear I'm babbling , must be all the Valentines wished I got that have turned my brain to mush 16_1_231
