Mmmh...Valentines day! What could you possibly read about that you know not about yet?
First, let's save all the crap on the origin of this overrated day. Y'all can google that if you want to. But for the basics, it is named after a christian Martyr.
I have mixed feelings for this day.
okay!
The notion that Feb the 14th must exceed our expectations of a standard Saturday night is cliche. But it is totally okay and normal to feel like this day has to be an unforgettably romantic experience.
Love stories happen just like that. A girl meets boy. They are attracted to each other and before they realize, they are madly in love with each other. But is that it? NO. There is so much more to it. Struggles, conflicts, tears, misunderstandings, family issues and others are a part of almost every romantic relation. With all or some of these only is a love story formed.
When you are in love, the feeling changes the world around and takes you on a joy ride. As if in a drunken stupor, you tend to do these, which you never did. And yes! Love truly has the magic.
But then again, whether you are in a relationship or not, chances are you are going to feel a tinge of disappointment on this day. But do not worry, cause you are definitely not alone.
Let us curb this loneliness of the hyperboled Feb the 14th:
- Avoid fancy restaurants like the plague. Who wants to wait 45 minutes to secure a table somewhere when you can pick up " chapati madondo, chips mwitu" and the likes in a matter of minutes? The Answer: NO ONE!
- Look at all the money that is still in your wallet. Not having a date is money in the bank.
It's really when you care
It's two people joined
I was in love with you
before you could drop a coin
It's a sense of trust,
but not enough lust
It's a commitment to be there,
but would you always be there
to share and care?
To wrap it up, this day is no different from BOXING DAY of Dec the 26th in relation to gifting.
Shower ladies with gifts from indulgent perfume to lingerie.
For the men, nothing less from great knits, leather accessories and fun gadgets to make him smile. Also, matching underwear, a gaming headset, a card and a pair of sweatpants would do justice.
