What is Valentine ?? 1) Day for couple celebrated they still in love, still together. 2) Businessman strategy to earn money from those lover.
 
Of course, everybody have these experience. Bought gift and exchanged, have a romantic dinner in order to express their love for each other. When the love just begin, it definately a importent day for celebration however when the time go long with same person. i don;t think so it still that importent. For instance, this year, i just bring my wife to watch a movie, we still can have a great time, but my friend laughing me, said that i not romantic enough compare to him bought flowers to her wife. I think a while, flower is better than watch movie together?? Flower is expensive but useless, especially Valentine day, price is double or triple. My own opinion, Only IDIOT or MORON will buy flower. If i'm a girl who receive a flower i sure angry. So many thing can buy and long lasting moreover cheaper. I've ask my wife before, do you love to receice flower?? The answer, of course love flower before we get merried. After merried, thinking is changing, more prefer to have to valueble thing. I f possible she like to have CASH as a present. This is show that, when human age increase ,thinhing, need,love also changing simultaneouly.
 
Valentine Day

Valentine's Day or Saint Valentine's Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14 by many people throughout the world. In the West, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine's cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of "valentines". Modern Valentine symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten notes have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.[1] The sending of Valentines was a fashion in nineteenth-century Great Britain, and, in 1847, Esther Howland developed a successful business in her Worcester, Massachusetts home with hand-made Valentine cards based on British models. The popularity of Valentine cards in 19th century America was a harbinger of the future commercialization of holidays in the United States.[2]

The U.S. Greeting Card Association estimates that approximately one billion valentines are sent each year worldwide, making the day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year, behind Christmas. The association estimates that, in the US, men spend on average twice as much money as women
