the Saint valentine from history 

The feast of St. Valentine was first decreed in 496 by Pope Gelasius I, who included Valentine among those "... whose names are justly reverenced among men, but whose acts are known only to God." As Gelasius implied, nothing is known about the lives of any of these martyrs.

Middle ages Books does not contain anything about hearts and last notes signed "from your Valentine", as is sometimes suggested in modern works of sentimental piety. Many of the current legends surrounding them appear in the late Middle Ages in France and England, when the feast day of February 14 became associated with romantic love.

Many of the current legends that characterise Saint Valentine were invented in the fourteenth century in England, notably by Geoffrey Chaucer and his circle, when the feast day of February 14 first became associated with romantic love.

Choosing the right present

I think one of the secrets of successfully conveying feelings of true love on Valentine's Day or any other day is in knowing the other person well enough to know what to choose!

listen to her!!! 

I know, girls are smart enough to know what is good for us, thanks god for that genetic trait.

So, basically, i'm talking to the male audience here:

listen to them, if you want to get a proper gift


I think one of the secrets of successfully conveying feelings of true love on Valentine's Day or any other day is in knowing the other person well enough to know what to choose. Showing up on the doorstep of your lady love with a bottle of wine or Champaigne only to discover that she doesn't drink AT ALL is a long way from conveying romantic feelings (unless it's the very first time you are haing a date). Giving a gift of large dangling earrings when she would never wear anything but studs isn't romantic either. (and would create embarassment). Sending her a large (no matter how expensive) box of chocolates when she is allergic to chocolate isn't going to tell her that you love her. It will only serve to tell her that you don't know anything about her and don't care enough to find out.

Just a little care and attention is all it takes! And a nice v day present!

Roses! Do not forget flowers! 

Whatever your choice, bring flowers!
If you are away, send roses!

All Roses are Red on Valentine's Day

The meaning of red roses can be traced back to some of the earliest cultures. The color red itself has always been symbolic of the very essence of life. In ancient Greek and Roman Mythology the red rose was very closely associated with the goddesses of love. In early societies, red roses were often used as a part of traditional wedding ceremonies. Brides and grooms exchanged red roses as a symbol of lasting love so the red rose just naturally evolved into the ultimate symbol of true love and devotion.

Red roses, as we know them today, were brought to Europe from China in the 1800's. Poets of old waxed eloquent about the red, red rose. The red rose is featured in many classical paintings. In our modern multi-media world, the red rose is still used as a symbol of true and undying love.

A single perfect red rose is a perfect gift for a young man to give to a young woman that he is falling in love with. A dozen red roses are even better. On Valentine's Day all roses are red because red roses are the universal symbol of undying love.

Don't stop there
Remembers, flowers are important, but you must also communicate your feelings.
