What not to do this Valentine's Day

Red roses, of course, are the most popular order for the day of love.

Don't do anything that's not genuine to you this Valentine's Day.
Trust that your significant other likes you just the way you are and wouldn't want you to be someone else. Not even for Valentine's Day.

  • "They're just a gift from the good Lord,"
  • "Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds."
  • "If I could reach up and hold a star for every time you've made me smile, the entire evening sky would be in the palm of my hand."
  • "You don't marry someone you can live with - you marry the person who you cannot live without."
  • "To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best."
  • "If you love someone, let them go. If they return to you, it was meant to be. If they don't, their love was never yours to begin with..."
  • "True love never dies for it is lust that fades away. Love bonds for a lifetime but lust just pushes away."
  • "Who says love never lives? Maybe we've never lived."
  • "Some love lasts a lifetime. True love lasts forever."
  • "If love is great, and there are no greater things, then what I feel for you must be the greatest."







Love is a serious topic, and too many people already think they're in love when they're not. Let's not compound that with the fact that people think they "need" to be in love with the person they're dating on Valentine's Day.



If you're still looking for a way to treat your significant other this Valentine's Day, do yourself a favor and avoid searching for Valentine's Day "dos and don'ts."
From advice to "avoid guy stuff because it's ‘her' day" to "buy something romantic," these run-of-the-mill tips are exactly what we don't want to be this time of year: generic.
There's no one-size-fits-all approach to celebrating Valentine's Day, but there are some important things to avoid.
So here we are:  Things not to do this Valentine's Day.
First, for your sanity and reputation, don't break up with someone on Valentine's Day. It doesn't matter if it's an impulse decision or not; it's going to come across as shallow, inconsiderate and unnecessarily hurtful.
Look at it this way: Valentine's Day is always February 14. Always. It never changes. If there's even an inkling in your heart that you might want to end things, try to do it before or after Valentine's Day. You're still going to seem like a jerk, but you might save a little bit of face.
Second, don't move too fast simply because it's Valentine's Day. This bit includes a lot of activities that might be deemed "moving too fast." Keep in mind that we're moving into abstract, subjective territory, and it's up to you to decide what is or isn't too fast for you and your sweetheart.
If you're single: Don't look for someone just because it's Valentine's Day. You are not the only person "alone" on this day. Instead of lusting after someone to share some romance with, think about all of the positives you have by being solo.
You don't have to impress anyone.
You don't have to shell out hundreds of dollars to celebrate.
You can be in a pissy mood and not worry about whether or not it's ruining someone's day.
If you're in a "casual" relationship or "hook-up:" Don't make your relationship something it isn't. Don't expect a big ta-do from your no-strings-attached sex partner.  If you're casually seeing someone, don't be upset if the day isn't a "big deal."
If you're in a committed relationship, there are a variety of moves that might be considered going too far, depending on how long you've been together or how intimate you already are.
Don't feel pressured to have sex just because it's Valentine's Day. Doing it before you're ready, no matter the reason, is going to lead to regret at some point or another.
It's one thing to decide to make the already-special moment "extra-special" by making Valentine's Day your first time; it's another thing entirely to make it your first time because it's Valentine's Day.
Similarly, don't drop the "L" word just because it's Valentine's Day. It's easy to get caught up in the emotion of the day, but telling your significant other of two days that you "love" him or her is probably not the best idea.
Nope. Make that definitely not the best idea.
