Valentine's Day is Overrated!

I think Valentine's Day is so overrated. Just like many other holidays, people take Valentine's Day to the extreme. My boyfriend got me a dozen roses and balloons, but to me that's just a waste of money on something that is going to die. I mean he's struggling to pay his bills but he can go out and spend money on something that i can't even keep forever, How STUPID!! He could have just bought a card and a cheap box of candy and been done with it.
Females are the worse though. They actually expect something like that. In my opinion, Valentine's Day is about spending time with the one you love, but females only care about what they get and how expensive it was. That says to me, they don't give a crap about their boyfriends, they're in love with the idea and their money. I don't understand people these days. Here we are about to go into a depression, and people are still spending way to much money on unnecessary things. I think I will get my boyfriend a card, a hug, and a kiss and be done with it. I'm not afraid to admit that I'm broke, and he's not happy with his card and affection, he can kiss my you know what!!!
