Valentines Day

The best and worst Valentines Day gift I have every received hmm.. The best Valentines Day gift I have received was probably in high school. My boyfriend at the time, told some of my friends to tell me to go stand in a hallway, and when I did he came around the corner and brought me this HUGE teddy bear, a dozen red rose, and a card and it was the best day ever lol. EXCEPT the part about carrying that HUGE bear around all day, so anytime someone wanted to hold it I was glad to let them have it. I still have that bear but its collecting dust in my closet. The WORST Valentines day would be last year. I was dating a guy and he told me he had to visit a family member the weekend before Valentines Day (I think Vday was on a Monday last year) So there was no weekend celebration, well during that weekend when trying to contact him I get no response until the actual day of vday. That’s because he probably had ANOTHER girlfriend at home!! (NOT BITTER lol) Sad story I know, but since I have AMAZING friends/Roommates they decorated my room while I was gone, left me this tear jerker note, and got me a gift so it was bitter sweet.

Since I never got an actual gift that Valentines day I would consider that the worst gift. I didnt really let the giver know how I felt and I probably wont.
If I worked for a greeting card company or a florist shop I would persuade the public that Valentines Day is the day of “LOVE”. I would tell them to remember that you can show someone how much you love them on any other day out of the year BUT its EXTRA important to have a gift/show appreciation on the actual day Feb 14. I would also let them know that I have the best quality cards/flowers in the area for the cheapest price!!!
