What is Valentine’s Day?

Valentine’s Day falls on February 14th every year. It is a day when people celebrate love and relationships. It originated in Ancient Rome as Lupercalia, a Roman festival of fertility. The holiday was later named “Saint Valentine’s Day” after the Catholic saint who was martyred for providing aid to Christians during Roman times.

Why Valentine’s Day is a great time to reflect on relationships.

It can be easy to focus on finding the perfect date or partner on Valentine’s Day because of the pressure of wanting to find someone special. But this day is not just about your significant other – it’s about everyone who loves you! With all the talk of lovers and partners, Valentine’s Day is also an opportunity to show appreciation for family members, friends, classmates, coworkers, neighbours, and more.

Maybe you’ll find someone special while appreciating those who already care about you!

How to appreciate loved ones on Valentine’s Day.

It can be tough to know how to show appreciation, especially if you are dating someone. There are plenty of ways to show your love on Valentine’s Day.

If you are single, you could also use this opportunity to go out and spend time with friends or family members.
A beautiful and thoughtful gift will always be appreciated, browse the inventory of your local gift shop to find the perfect gift.
If you want to play it safe, the most common Valentine’s Day gifts for women are jewellery, flowers and/or chocolates, which are always appreciated. You could try to be a little bit different and choose a novelty gift or clothing and accessories.
Buying a gift for a man is always more difficult, but you can’t really go wrong with a gadget(electronic or not), food or booze.
Of course, there are other things you both might enjoy, “nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more, say no more.” **
