Do Valentines Hinder Love?:
"Senders of greeting cards and valentines may actually use the cards to distance themselves from their feelings, reflecting a culture in which relationships, due to social and economic pressures, are 'necessarily temporary,' according to a new book by an Ohio State University professor.
In defense of Valentine's Day cards, the book also claims that what senders write in the cards is no less hokey or cliched than some of the preprinted messages. "
"I think that, for some people, it is emotionally safer to let the card to the talking," Frumerman said. "It is a manner of expressing feelings that might make you feel very vulnerable in a way that protects the sender from a direct emotional expression."
Hmm This guy also adds though, that it's better to give and receive a card than nothing at all.
Get with your feelings out there. Stuff the card and flowers. Do something different. Tell them that you truly honestly and passionately love them. And not just today. Do it every day.
