February 14th, a day earmarked by the naked weapon-wielding baby who calls himself "cupid," or, better known as Valentine's Day, is right around the corner.
B and L have had several discussions regarding this "holiday" and have found themselves on two completely different opposite ends of the "feelin' it" spectrum, and so have prepared for you, dear readers, a special "Loves it, Hates it!" for your reading pleasure.
Take B: "Valentine's Day? Loves it!"
B, a girl's girl through and through. Just about everyday she hopes she will meet a guy who will sweep her off her feet. Romance: a dream come true.
"I love tokens of appreciation, especially when they are out of the blue. Flowers and/or chocolates? Yes, please!! Valentine's Day is just another chance for a guy to send those tokens to show you how much he wants you or thinks about you!! But the BEST part of any appreciation is the card; however, to get the extra points, a personal message is required! (Come on, guys, none of that lazy BS of just signing your name! Even if it is sans personal message, I will gladly accept your card with a smile. You got half-way there!)
Now that I'm single, I'm going to have to rip a page out from Cher Horowitz's book and send myself flowers and chocolates for V-Day!! Helllllloooo Godiva. Mmmmm....Delicious."

Or, take L: "Valentine's Day? Hates it!"
L, a girly-girl on the outside, but a completely stereotypical "man" when it comes to mushy things. Ugh.
"I do not like chic flicks, the Lifetime network, or talking about childbirth and periods. Don't even get me started on stuffed animals. I'm almost 25, for crying out loud.
I just cannot understand why B is getting so worked up over this one day. She already has a Plan A and a Plan B! Why B, why?!
If I'm into someone, I do not need Hallmark to put a deadline on me to do something nice, or get worked up over it. You all know I'm so.not.Type.A. with schedules and planning...unless it's a tropical vacation (and now we're off on a tangent)!
I would be happy with a slap on the bum and maybe a Whopper Jr. ...with fries."
Readers...share your thoughts about Valentine's Day!
