VALENTINE MADNESS!

It appears iam quite behind with voicing my overly loud CANDID opinion on this madness popularly known as “valentines day”. This is quite the day for hypocrisy, lies, shattered hopes, disappointments and true love to germinate in ones love life across the globe.

So what is it about men acting like they genuinely adore us and want to hear everything we say and work extra hard to maintain eye contact with us on this day in futile attempt not to let their usual wandering eye balls do their usual scans and walks as they escort other women’s "assets" up and down or in and out?! By the way that famous and unpopular ‘wandering eye’ is something I love to call ‘lazy eye’ where the pupils get shamelessly LAZY as they get glued on all other ladies around you except you whom he clearly chose out of all them out there when he had the opportunity to choose.

Back to the valentine madness…..so your self proclaimed boyfriend goes missing in action for most of the relationship in the 366/365 days of the year then swoops in like a knight in shining rubbish to torment us even worse on this really overrated day of the year?? Who died and gave them the high horse?? Where were you when I was cold and lonely?! Where were you when I needed a shoulder to cry on??  Where were you when i was having financial, emotional, academic and psychological hiccups?? Most importantly where are all the apologies u owe me that are in outstanding arrears??? Is a few hours in one day really enough to give our beloved male species a pass when they pass up on their obligations?? I think NOT!

We deserve to be spoilt and showered with gifts everyday and not have only one day for it. After all, the saint valentine himself died a grotesque death and his ‘love’ is what we now celebrate for the most ridiculous reasons! We all have a whole year to the next valentine’s day shenanigans…..lets find out exactly WHY we should celebrate it as individuals. Not to make our spouses happy or succumb to peer pressure and the hopeless bandwagon. 

Let’s stop calling a spade a big spoon people. It’s a spade!! If it was a big spoon we could use it as cutlery in our kitchens and dining tables.
