To all the Single Ladies and Gentlemen, what are your plans for Valentines Day?

[dliz]

Really? Do you have a source for that?

"St. Valentine's Day began as a liturgical celebration of one or more early Christian saints named Valentinus. The most popular martyrology associated with Saint Valentine was that he was imprisoned for performing weddings for soldiers who were forbidden to marry and for ministering to Christians, who were persecuted under the Roman Empire; during his imprisonment, he is said to have healed the daughter of his jailer Asterius. Legend states that before his execution he wrote "from your Valentine" as a farewell to her."

For me personally, Valentine is everyday. 365 days in a year not only 1 day. Maybe the only different thing at 14 February is at mall and modern market will full of chocolate things, pink stuff, etc.

Oh, is this the thread where we post our attributes and find out who our Valentine will be?

I will do the same thing I've done for all of the other ones in the past...treat it like just another normal day.

I'm sorry Dliz, but About.com is really one of the worst sources for information about anything.
