Yoohoo ! 🌹

Does Valentine's day mean to anyone as much as it means to me now .. ??

On the coming day , I wanna make chocolate , and confess to mon amore~ !

His reaction , I already know. I just want to see and hear him reject me directly and get over with him !!
:valentine 😲 😭

all I regret is I'm gonna spend a lonely and boyfriend-less valentine. :unsure:
Nothing new in that , but it all feels different ever since my first love .. 😍
I want to know is any of you out there in the same shoes as mine ??

And what are you loners (if any) are gonna do on that bloody damn day ?? Any advices ??
 
@ suki-yaki

I once read a very true comment in a magazine about dating one time, "go in expecting a knock back and you will get a knock back"

I think this is very true, basically go in with no confidence and you are going to get chewed up and spat out (metaphorically speaking)

good luck.

Well valentines day will be strange for me because my S.O.G (sort of girlfriend, yes she likes me as well) is leaving for Germany friday for 11 months. Why couldn't she leave on the 16th or something?
 
I don't see the big deal. Looking back, I think I've been single on all but a few Valentine's Days and I've never really noticed. I think of Valentine's Day as a time for couples to do things together. If you're not in a couple, it's just an ordinary day. It's like not celebrating a holiday because the holiday doesn't include you or you're not interested in the holiday. Like not celebrating Christmas if you're Jewish or something. I don't know, feel bad about it if you want to, but it doesn't seem like anything worth feeling bad about.

Sometimes I'll use Valentien's Day to tell the women in my life who mean something to me that I think they're special. Like my mom, my female friends, cute coworkers, whatever. Maybe you can do that for the men in your life if you really feel like doing something. Give a card to a friendly bus driver or something. :valentine
 
heh, i agree, i dont see the big deal with it, i been single on all the previous valentines, i didnt care quite frankly, just a way to rip u off, by showing ur luv, well now im seeing someone and i think she is into that valentine thing, so i guess ill have to conform :S
 
Valentine is a cursed day for me...well it was in the past ☝ last year my ex broke up a week after valentine...HARSH ! and the gf before that I broke up with her a week before valentine...a cursed day it is ARRRR !!! :p

I'm gonna send my gf a valentinecard this week, will be her first, since in japan girls give guys chocolats @ Valentine :)
 
Ahh, sweet + sour Valetine's Day. How I tenderly love, and utterly despise thee! Valentine's days in the past have been bitter-sweet. I adore watching my enemies wither in pain at rejection, but must suffer the same fate as well! Will my longing forever be unrequited? Or shall I rise, victorious, where countless others have failed? I await with anticipation, February the fourteenth. For, no matter what end, no matter how cruel and wicked you might be to me, I will forever love thee, Valentine's Day.

(I like to write poetry! :) )
 
Started from last night (Feb 6) till the next ten days, every evening I have to attend a Chinese banquet if not at a Chinese restaurant then it's at a friend's home, with different friends and relatives, usually from 8:00 pm to 11:00pm, just to celebrate the lunar new year.

So, on Feb 14, I will be still busy celebrating the Chinese New Year with a bunch of friends! ^_^

uuuuuuuhhhhh but if it was always the week before valentines that you broke up, wouldn't that make the week before valentines cursed? rather than valentines day itself being cursed? lol 😌
 
Valentine's Day has never meant much to me.

Actually...it has meant that there'll be lots of pretty candy for sale. :)

I'm not cold hearted. It's just that I treat my boyfriend special all the time...why should I let years of tradition tell me that I have only one day to let him know how much he means to me and be romantic?

Any day that you tell someone you love them for the first time should be special.

Oh well...I'll stop being mean-ish... :sorry:

Good luck, Suki-Yaki!!! Don't think you've failed when you have yet to try!

P.S. Last Valentine's, my two friends and I spent the entire weekend watching Tennis no Oujisama. Nyaha... I had permission from my boyfriend, so it was okay. ^^
 
ahhhhhh!!

yeah , perhaps I have been giving too much thinking about this day ..

But its something japanese inside me .. its taking over me .. :p !!

Sounds so nice , and perfectly the right thing to do ! Too bad the relationship between me and general employees isnt so tender. But , I know I wanna give something to the local hair dresser !! (he helped me on my first day here ..)

I wanna give chocolate to some boys at my class (only the ones who help me with Kanji 😊 ) And , cant see why i cant give it to my teachers as well :valentine: 🌹

Perhaps its a wrong idea to go through all the tires making chocolate just so itd be rejected. Im thinking the guy of my dreams deserves nothing from me on Valentines! :box:
 
I gotta get to work right after this post, no time to read!!!!

But my fiance told me that usually the females give white chocolate to their male co-workers and friends.

Usually they give stuff to their boyfriends, but she says females are sometimes shy to do so.

Luckly I don't have a shy fiance. :)

I can't to see what she has done for me.
 
One thing that startled me is that Valentine's Day in Japan is not just geared to lovers, nor even to men-women relations, but also to children ! Many ads I saw (eg at the Ito-yokado department stores) were targeting children. It's really 'busines-business'. Like for Xmas, the original meaning is completely discarted and the purpose is to to sell as much chocolate as possible.
 
Valentine's Day...Could be about you and your friends

Valentine's Day is my favourite day of the year! It's all about love. You don't have to spend it alone just because you haven't got a boyfriend/girlfriend.
In Russia,for example, Valentine's Day is not only about sending cards and presents to your Special Someone, but also sending cards to your friends! You are meant to tell them how much you care about them. That way more people feel loved and valued. Many single people I know are meeting up with their friends to go to the cinema or for a meal.

Happy Valentine's Day!!! :)
 
Valentines day is very commercialised. While I love valentines day (though I have never had a gf to spend it with, hehe I will next year) and it is really good to tell people how you feel, I believe this si something you should do everyday, not just on a particular day of the year. I mean how much easier is it to do it another day (when they wouldn't be expecting it either) when roses and choclates don't cost as much (selfish I know, in fact I don't mind paying the money on valentines day) really valentines day is the only day of the year that florists, candy stores and restaurants can make a hell of alot of money!!! hehe

just a thought
 
Where's the love?

Uhh, this day must be cursed for me...
I waited in line for an hour and 15 minutes just to get a parking permit, ran back to my car and found out I had gotten a ticket between the time i bought the permit and the time I got to my car. So I try to appeal the ticket only to find out that the reciept has the wrong time printed on it. needless to say I had to run back to that reeeealy long line and hop in the back again. last, I go back to my car and look over on the passenger side door and notice there is black marker streaked across my door on my white car. :auch:

When I finaly get back to class it's already over so i move on to the next one... pop quiz. After all my classes I go back home and find out the package I ordered with my brand new computer just got into san diego, so I call around and get directions to fed ex. they give me the wrong directions which has me stuck in traffic wandering around for an hour, then i find out that the package wasnt even there and it's not going to be for another two hours, so I get to go back home and wait, only to find out that I don't know which direction is back. This must realy be Halloween, Friday the 13th in disguize, because I reeealy dont see the love here.
