Valentines Pay?

         Although this writing is even more horribly clichéd then the day itself, I shall write about Valentines Day. Scratch that, I shall write about the day men must live up to the grand desires of every girlfriends chocolate loving, big bear hugging, elaborate date making expectations. The fact that guys are forced to endure this holiday as it is just horrible. First,
please let loose of your opinions right now, and just take a trip with me through this harsh reality of American consumerism, and greed.
      The girls out there who are definite Madonna’s will relish in the pool of flowers, and gift boxes of chocolate. Those who honestly love their partners will look at Valentines Day as another day they are still together, because if they’re really in love every day is Valentines Day. The fact that he can hold her in her arms when they wake is more reason then any to celebrate everyday, yet Valentines Day still exists! Why does a Holiday created by the big companies (yes that’s right) still make us spend our paychecks and waste our time to win over dates with material possessions on that faith-less February 14th every year? It’s ridiculous to think that Valentines Day is still around considering there is such a large population of single people who get hit with the facts every year that love has yet to come their way.
         What is the only plus side to this holiday? The payment in return for the gifts and scripted messages on the cards the men really got from Google. Now, Justin what is this payment you may ask…. for men, Sex. For boys, a kiss. There you go I’ll be the one to say it. You will only find a very small amount of men in this world who genuinely care about their girl being happy because of their Valentines Day success…they only want to avoid the after-math of not living up to the preset limits of Valentines Day. Do well, or get what you deserve…that’s how it goes. Us guys are forced to stress over getting her exactly what chocolate she wants, if she even likes chocolate. That’s another thing, we are supposed to have the magic of Narnia and already know her favorite things…even if she never would tell us casually.
You know what! I say screw it! Us guys go through a lot of crap form woman, what with their mood swings and constant nagging, I say for just this one day every year they cater to us! Give us some relaxation and shut their traps. Make us a Sandwich, hand us the TV Remote, and lay on our chest, saying “your great”. That’s all we want, things to be good.
         So ladies, this Valentines day give it back to us…we don’t like celebrating this, I think we all know if we love each other…so show us some love. Have a lovely Valentines Day, knowing you have been sucked into the Global Marketing scheme in the theme of Roses, and Chocolates! Stay Golden! (I'm not sexist like I sound here..)
