With Valentine's Day less than a day away, some people have different responses than others: some are scoffing the holiday, others are eagerly looking forward to it, while others are in a sheer panic. Which one of these three are you feeling right now?
Interestingly enough, Valentine's Day has a much different history than you would think. It was originally a fertility ritual involving blood and sacrifice. Click here to read an archived MacInsiders article about the origins of the holiday. Since then, the holiday has obviously changed a lot!
Recent studies suggest that there is a "science" behind love, which makes us feel the way we do when we are with our significant other. From blood rituals to hormones to dating. Very, interesting!
Many couples spend the day or evening with each other celebrating their relationship. Like anyrelationship you have, maintaining one with a partner takes work.
We're students, so sometimes big, expensive dates aren't really possible. It's more about the time you spend with your partner, than what you do. There are lots of possibilities for inexpensive dates, sometimes you just have to be a little bit creative. Perhaps one of the best ideas is to stay in and do things together, like cook dinner and watch a bunch of love stories with some popcorn.
No matter what you choose to do this Valentine's Day, remember to protect yourself and your partner: no glove, no love (or another witty slogan which encourages you to practice safe sex)!
What are you doing this Valentine's Day? Are you celebrating with your partner, or are you celebrating an anti-Valentine's Day with friends? OR, is Valentine's Day just like any other day for you?
