Let's just put it out there: Valentine's Day is overrated, overhyped, absolutely unnecessary propaganda from greeting card makers and chocolate sellers. And florists.
Unless you are dating someone.
In which case, it's all heels and dresses and "Pick me up at 8!"
Pfft.
But it is absolutely inarguable that if you are not doing anything "special" on Valentine's Day, it is really not a big deal. It's a non-issue. A thing that doesn't matter. Vehemently inconsequential.
Unless you are dating someone.
But if you aren't (and that's really okay), how about you take the day to treat yourself, your mother, your sister, your nephew, your dog, your best friend...whatever. It is 'love' you have to celebrate anyway right? And what is more chill a scene than the perfect recipe for a great night - beers (or wine), a large pizza with extra toppings, and a great movie?
