    Bit of a waste of time for married people.

    Valentines's day is all about spotty peach fuzz covered 19 year old blokes with early onset androgenetic alopecia, maybe, just maybe, losing their virginity.

    Yet another "holiday" invented by a US greeting card company.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I am not married and I am not far off from the 19 year old steriotypical male you are refering too... But, once you have been married for a very long time, do you not need special occasions as V day, to keep the spark alive even more? I know there are always the Aniversaries but rather than looking at it as going through another "needless chore", isn't it more like another oppertunity in the year to remind your partner of the love you have for them? You may say you love them, every day and show them every day in various ways but V day maybe another fun occasion to do something extra special together.

    Halloween is something very American and yet we do it here as well. At first, we laughed and said "what a bunch of wanabe's" (as my family have lived in the USA for a few years). Then I came to realise that, it really doesn't matter. What matters is that the little kids have another excuse to go and have fun, just like they see on TV.

    Which is the main thing, having fun and enjoying your everyday life.

    Then again, I am a 21 year old person who is unattached. So my views on this matter are only phillosophical and they may have flaws in them in practice.

    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them
