Happy February 14th!

Chocolate and roses and dinner for two♥

This day makes me sick.

And noo, I'm not some girl complaining about being single, who just sat around depressed all day because I don't have a date for Valentine's Day.

I'm a happily taken girl who's been in a relationship for over 2 years who sat around all day because my boyfriend and I don't celebrate Valentine's Day. I was only bored and alone because unfortunately it seems like everyone else does make a huge deal out of this ridiculous day.

I found this picture on CardboardLove.com and I must say, I absolutely love it!

Why do I love it so much? Because it's so true. Today is just another day, and I love my boyfriend just as much today as I do every other day of the year and he knows that, and vice versa. Who says we have to take this randomly chosen day of the year to show we love each other? I'd rather save the dinner and roses for a much more personally important day, such as our anniversary.

I don't know how Valentine's Day came to be, especially since all research claims that it's "shrouded in mystery" and all the stories are just "legends", but in my mind, I just think of some guy who was afraid to ask a girl out, so he made up this day all about love so he could go up to his crush and be all like, "Hey the day of love is coming up, and I don't think you want to be alone?" And the St. Valentine just came into the picture because of his role in history of bringing loved ones together, and the day needed a name. And he just happened to ask this girl out on February 14th. Yeah... that's how it happened in my mind.
That seems completely stupid, but I don't care, because this money-making holiday is pretty stupid in my mind, and the mind of many others. Because really, you should show your significant other love every day, and any day is a good day to ask out that person you have a crush on.

I feel so bad for single people on Valentine's Day because they always feel like shit, and they really shouldn't. Because it's just another day! Ignore all those couples that make a huge deal out of it and have fun like you would on any other day!

To the girls: Cook dinner for your boyfriend on any random night.

To the guys: Buy roses for your girlfriend on any random day.

To the single people: Ask out your crush without using a holiday as an excuse.

Don't use this lame holiday as an excuse to bring out the love.

I love you Matt, today and every other day of the year ♥
