Every
year on February 14, couples celebrate Valentine’s Day. It’s a day about couples, love, valentines
and romance. But for some, it’s a
dreaded day where they are again reminded that they are still single and have
no one to share the holiday with. Here
are several reasons to dislike Valentine’s Day:
- The color pink. From the candy, the stuffed animals, the hearts, to the valentines, everything is this atrocious color. The amount of pink everywhere is sickening. Even someone who likes this color could find it annoying and for those who hate pink, seeing the color everywhere is a nightmare.
- Teddy bears holding little hearts saying things like “Be Mine” or “I’m Yours.” You may not be together forever and when you do break up, the bear will just be an unpleasant reminder that you are no longer a couple. Also a teddy bear would be a terrible gift for your boyfriend. Most males wouldn’t like receiving a fuzzy, cute bear as a gift. Boys are too self conscious about what their friends would think, and would be too afraid to show affection for the bear.
- Hearts are also an annoying part of Valentine’s Day. The candy boxes, decorations and valentines are all heart shaped. Even the candy itself is heart shaped. These fake hearts are irritating and unpleasant to look at. This object is the only decoration used to celebrate this holiday. It’s incredibly boring and repetitive to look at these same decorations every year. If the decorations included a little more variety, then this day might be slightly more interesting. But just slightly.
