Inappropriate Valentine Gifts

Valentine's day is just around the corner... but before that we need to know more about this occasion and where it came from. Valentine's Day was named after Saint Valentine (Died on February the 14) back in the medieval period but there was no romantic link to him. Not until the 14th century that this day was marked as the romantic occasion it is nowadays. And this is why this date was removed from the Catholic calender because other than the name there is no connection to him. So for those who think its an occasion celebrated only by Catholics, you might need to check your facts.
It is a tradition on this day to express your love to the people who matter the most to you. It was basically to spread the love and gratitude around. So you can share this day with anyone who has a place in your heart ( Spouses, Family and Friends).
I have heard so many stories about the gifts people got on Valentine's day but since we are in the 21st century we need to stop this madness :)
Here is a list of things NOT to buy or give:
Teddy Bears
(Even kids are playing with their Ipads now)

CD ( mix)
 
(I love to use my ipod shuffle)

Stuffed Animals
 
 (Well that's just WEIRD)

Fake Flowers
 ( Come on !! Don't be that lazy, its just once a year)
Cake
(Is it my birthday? Is it ??!!!) 
Picture Frame
( oh ok and I'm suppose to put the picture too !!)

Fake Jewelry  
 (If you can't afford it then don't get it at all)

Nothing
( Now I REALLY know you care !!!)

PS: The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just love and be loved in return. Be kind to each other !
