if you decenter romantic love and let yourself celebrate the other love in your life and also ignore the over-consumption of it all Valentine’s Day is a cute fun day with an elite aesthetic and an opportunity for treats for you and your pals ☺️ how cute a day for luv

i love the sentiment (if we direct it to the right place)

i adore the idea of love building up to one big day of loving and appreciation. i too am against the hyper-consumerist event it’s become, but i try my best to reclaim it every year. i’ve never really had a true romantic valentine (it’s fine! i don’t mean that in a sympathy-fishing way) so i never felt a longing for someone else on valentine’s day. i use it as an excuse to wear a cute pink outfit and remind my friends that i appreciate them and they’re all my valentines. the world is my oyster of love. but, on the romantic end, i really like when i see couples put effort towards homemade gifts for each other or special valentines surprises that exist outside of the consumerist conventions that we tend to default to. i think we should all take efforts to move towards a ethical-thanksgiving-style type of day, focusing on the celebration of being grateful for all sorts of love that may have found you. romantic or platonic.

i like the excuse to buy little things for my best friends

Now that I’m single again, I’m having a party for my friends and making little goodie bags and just trying to make everyone feel loved on the 13th, since there’s so much emphasis on romance. It shouldn’t be any more romantic for couples than any other day of the year; it should be an excuse to do it one extra time, or go just a little more all out. It’s an excuse to do what you already want to for your person/people.
