Why Some People Hate Valentine's Day

[vanillaLatte]

some are bitter because they're alone and secretly envies other couples.

some find it corny and too sappy.

some hate the traffic and the skyrocketing prizes of flowers and gift items.

 

vday is just ok for me, pero hindi ko naman kakaririn.

[angel_by_day]

hopelessness and romanticism can do that to you.

 

hopeless romantics. hate them. love them. but they exist.

 

too much of anything can be dangerous to your health.

Simply put, haterz dont want to be "commercialized" on V-Day...the senti movies, the candle-light or romantic dinners either at home or some fancy resto, the romantic concerts or shows, the trips to the motel/hotel... no V-Day sex ( to the tune of "Birthday Sex" ) that's gonna k*ll guys with lots of pride in them and ladies who salivate for V-Day sex and for ladies who at least want someone's arms wrapped around them, at least, on that day...and the day after...and the next one...

 

As for me, am not a V-Day hater... though I can manage not goin' the flow and wiggle through the traffic and queue at restos, cinemas and motels especially if V-Day is on a weekday...we can do it on the weekends anyway :evil: why the rush? hehehe

People's expectations run high on V-day.

 

Thus, chances are very high that they'll get disappointed.

 

Also, what's the impact of doing something special when you're expected to do it? It becomes an obligation pa, and feels like a chore.

First there is no money..

Second there is no available rooms

Third no available service

Fourth most of the resto bars are crowded

Fifth it's corny going out on that date

And lastly---because of the five reasons above your girlfriend breaks up with you...the reason why???

you have plenty of alibi's which are not realistically acceptable to your partner..

so the next time be prepared for it...

Argh. Which is why i've been sitting on the fence about going to see APO's farewell valentine concert. Parang more couples talaga ang mag-e-enjoy but naman, it's bound to be a great, great concert!!!

[daredevil67011]

Coz it has become too commercialized! Mahal ang flowers, mahal ang motel/hotel rates, di ka pwede sa magandang resto without reservation, and SOBRANG TRAFFIC!

[ButtChicKick]

because it has become another day to force people to shop compulsively for things that they don’t need or they don’t want to buy in order to express their love. Most men know that they will be in trouble if they don’t buy an expensive present for their SO. So, they buy an expensive present to avoid drama.

because i don't like men spending for outrageously expensive roses for me. i'd rather receive one single rose in the most unexpected time rather than receive a whole bunch on valentine's day just because it's expected of him .

[silentkilla]

magastos kasi...

[smbeer88]

the last time i went out on valentine's was at least 6 years ago, and it was only because my gf at the time wanted to watch a particular concert. its not really an important date for a couple and it has nothing to do with love. There are more important dates like anivs, birthdays, and such that have personal meaning.

[eliasmalaya]

valentine's day is overrated.

[ladyboy]

mag eexpect k tapos wala nman magandang wala n lng valentines d b?

[BallBreaker]

I used to. Can't stand the baloney. That's why he used that date to do something I am not expecting he would - he proposed to me a year ago on Valentine's Day. Some got flowers, some got chocolates... I got a diamond ring! Now even if I want to, I can't get myself to hate it.

i don't hate it. it's just no biggie. i don't want my man worrying or fussing about it. its just a special day for lovers/couples so i just try to be 'extra nice' on v-days...(the very reason why i am researching the net now for new sex postions )
