February 14- Lovers day.
February 14th has become the busiest day for cupid every year.
Most people are busy, thinking of how to make that day wonderful,
while for some it’s just like every other day.

It is just a couple of hours to Valentine and as usual everybody is
talking about it, and writing one article or the other about it.
I noticed that there are few people talking about the DON’TS of
Valentine day and YES, i decided to write something about it.

So, here it goes,
7 things you should never do on valentine’s day

1) Calling up your EX on Valentine’s day
RESIST PLEASE
Occasions like this, especially if you still single, or your new
relationship is not going the way you expect, there is that tendency
that your thoughts would drift back to the last person you were
with, those fond memories you had and all.
It is normal but remember, the past is the past for a reason.
You broke up for a reason, so don't let that moment of weakness
make you take decisions you would regret later.

2) Doing nothing on that day
It's a day of love and love means activity
Take yourself out,
Dress to kill,
Be determined to have fun.
Make yourself happy.
Treat yourself real good..
have some self-love time.

3) Going on a First Date
That is a ‘NO NO’ for me.
Remember that pressure that comes on a first date?
You want to impress, you want everything to go perfect.
Most of the time, we go with the hope (high hopes) that He/She
would be the 'one'.
What i'm saying is, first dates are hard enough as it is
without the added pressure of taking place on a special day like
this.
Val day is NOT the day to take such dating risk.

4) Giving money as gift:
To me, this is so unromantic.
Or sending recharge cards?
weird too.
Guys are guilty of this.
"I don't know what to buy" That is always the excuse.
By the way, i said unromantic, never said she won't like it.

5) Pretending to be having a good time whereas you are not
Most people do this especially on special occasions such as
Christmas, and birthdays.
If you not doing anything on that day, you don't have to pretend
you are, it's just Val day, it's not even a public holiday.

6) Assume it’s just for couples
Who made that law?
If you've got a boo, wonderful – If not, or you just got out of a
relationship and you still feel bad, you can still spread the love that
day, whether it's with yourself, or better still, your family, or
friends.
Remember, Misery loves company.

7) On a lighter note; Don't compose a Poem if you have never
done it before and don't record songs to send your patner if your
voice is awful.
For God sake not spoil that special day for your patner.
you’ll put your partner through the ordeal of pretending to like it.

Add yours.....

Have a great Valentine.
Be safe.

Life has no rules!

Op you I shouldn't do this?

wordbank:
Don't eat bananas Don't eat oranges

dont breathe

Dont have sex

do what you want abeg. life is too short to be playing by rules.

Lol! I couldn't resist the urge bro, the expression misery loves company doesn't mean people crave the company of others when they're miserable, it actually means when people feel miserable, they want other people to also feel miserable, i.e misery craves more misery. So hanging out with your family cuz misery loves company......
Dunno where this Val mania came from. Feb 14th is just an ordinary, uneventful day
How exactly did St. Val's day become a day for men to treat women to fantastic outings and fairy tale-like romance? Its like you guys don't know the story behind Val's day. Personally I think its just a campaign championed by women to force men to empty their bank accounts for them at least once a year. And when do men get treated like kings, pampered and fussed over? When we're born and when we die, that's when
