So, this is basically kind of a rant for Valentine's Day.
First, people who have no girlfriends or boyfriends are shown how much they are alone and sad on Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day brings light to couples and darkness to people who have no partner to spend it with.
Second, Valentine's Day is great for companies to get people to buy things. Chocolate companies get a great chance to promote that new product! And other companies like those that make cards and happy lovey stuff and heart-shaped jewelry can get lots of cash in. Basically they use Valentine's Day for that purpose very successfully.
Third, the aftermath of Valentine's Day is worse than during. When people look around they see couples holding hands, hugging, maybe even kissing depending on how much PDA is acceptable in public. Those who have "nothing" feel lonelier because those who do have the spotlight on themselves and basically show the world they are happy. I'm not saying I'm not happy for them. Of course I'm happy for them.
Forth, Valentine's Day creates this opportunity for even fake relationships to seem real for just a day and maybe another day after. But once that heat of love is over, things can take a terrible turn. I've never had a Valentine's Day sweetheart so I can't say anything from real experience but we are only human so I can guess that some people might take advantage of Valentine's Day and ask that girl on a date or take a day with that boy. Valentine's Day makes people sweet and happy and good and peaceful... most of the time anyway. So, that boy you hated might be worth spending the day with even if that means you might never be permanent.
People HATE being alone on Valentine's Day. Most people anyway. It's supposed to be special and romantic. So even if you have to hurt your heart afterwards, at least that day can be happy, right? Wrong. (I've always wanted to do that "right? Wrong." thing, haha, point off)
It's just not worth it to hurt yourself in order to be happy on Valentine's Day. Heck, I don't even celebrate the day anymore because its just sad and lonely and pointless and I'd have to spend money to get a boy to look at me. Love shouldn't cost anything in the first place. If any of you reading this long blog, and you are without a partner, make sure when you find someone that you don't have to buy his love. Chocolate being the start of a relationship is pretty shallow in my opinion.
There now. I think I've lost track of thought for a moment. Back on the point. A relationship for just one day, just one day called Valentine's Day which wasn't even meant to be a special day (Wikipedia Valentine's Day and you can find interesting information), IS NOT WORTH IT.
So, any of you who are lonely, don't be. Valentine's Day wasn't even meant to be a day anyway. What a funny story, huh? You're sadness has been a waste. Only those who are really truly lucky will even find their honey-bunch on Valentine's Day. And I mean lucky.
Did my point even get across? I don't even know if this whole thing had a point. Oh well, it was more like a rant anyway. A rant to people who say they are lonely on Valentine's Day and to the fraud of Valentine's Day.
