[quote=Anonymous]Valentine's Day is kind of a stupid holiday. I knew this woman who would get upset every year because she was disappointed that her husband didn't do exactly what she wanted for V day. Then he got it right. And she's pleased as punch. But it seems sort of silly. He is still just going through the motions (i.e. figuring out he has to do X, so that she doesn't get upset with him). It all seems to lack substance or even genuine sentiment. It has become like Christmas -- a day of expectation. Gift giving is more meaningful when there isn't an expectation of a gift. When there is an expectation of a gift and a potential punishment for not giving a gift, then it isn't a gift. It's a payment/fee/obligation.[/quote]
