A Valentine's Day Rant (And a 'Fuck You' just for fun)

For about the 3908908458th time this month, I overheard someone talking about how "stupid" and "overrated" Valentine's Day is. So far I've been given reasons like, "It's a complete waste of money", "If you really love someone, it shouldn't only be shown on one day a year" and "It's just a superficial holiday". Let me just start off by saying that I don't give a fuck where the origin of Valentine's Day came from, I don't care how "stupid" you think it is and I really and truly am getting SICK and TIRED of your whiny ass BULLSHIT. Yes, It's irritating me THAT BADLY. There are two types of people who hate this holiday: single people and people who aren't good at romantic shit. And you know what? It's totally fine to be in either category. I have plenty of friends who are single and plenty who don't find romance at all in flowers or cards... but here's thing: how fucking dare you belittle something that obviously brings happiness to so many others? I love Valentine's Day. For me, it's not about "only" celebrating my love for someone one day out of the year, because I do it all the time. Ethan does too. I feel loved everyday that I'm with him and that's why we're still together. But let's just be honest... I love a dozen roses, I love a sappy card, and I love going out in public with my boyfriend and showing everyone how freaking lucky I am to have such an amazing person. I'm really sorry if that offends you. I'm also really sorry if you don't have that yourself, but pitying yourself and crying about how alone you are on Valentine's Day will a) never get you in a relationship and b) will bite you in the ass when you DO have someone to spend Valentine's Day with one day and I constantly remind you of how "superficial" the holiday really is.

And while I'm at it, I am SO FUCKING SICK of feeling like Ethan isn't good enough for certain people. I love him more than anyone on this planet. He's my rock. He is there for me when I have no one else to turn to and he never judges me, condemns me or makes me feel like what I have to say isn't important. He makes me happy and I feel like that should be enough. When I talk about my future with him and you roll your eyes or act like you don't care, all I want to do is punch you. If you're my friend or if you feel like we're close, then you should be HAPPY for me. You should share in my excitement and not make me feel like what I have to say isn't newsworthy. But guess what?! If Ethan isn't good enough, then I am not good enough because he is a part of me. He's a major part of my life and at this point, I no longer have time for people who don't see us as package deal. FUCK YOU IF YOU DON'T APPROVE. I don't need approval and I no longer want it! I'm happy! And I'm about to show everyone who doesn't seem to think that's most important that they are no longer important.
