ROMANTIC TIPS: “The problem with Valentine’s Day (Part 3)”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(And yet) another in a never-ending series of relationship tips and romantic insights that might help—or at least couldn’t hurt— your relationship.
The trouble with Valentine’s Day is that . . . The already-romantic don’t really need it . . . the adamantly-unromantic just don’t want it . . . and the romantically-impaired are annually punished by it.
Let’s face it: Valentine’s Day simply doesn’t work. If it did, I’d be all for it.
Let’s give a sucker a break and let these guys off the hook, okay? The dozen roses they buy? A feeble attempt to make up for lost time. The expensive box of Godiva Chocolates? Romance inspired by guilt.
And let’s have a little more respect for the women. I mean, really, ladies: Are you honestly pleased with roses grudgingly given, with chocolates hastily grabbed, with trinkets ordered on the internet, with a “custom love letter” penned by a hired ghostwriter? Are you really willing to settle for so little? Do you really have so little self-respect?
You deserve better. He deserves better. Go share a bottle of wine, then talk for a little while, then make love. There. See?? Everybody’s happy.
