I don't see it as just a holiday for couples. I got several text from friends sending me love, as they wished me Happy Valentine's Day. Kids give, other kids cards, etc. I spoke to my ex therapist yesterday, and we both wished each other Happy...it may have been the first time. I don't remember, nor care. It was said to a friend.

This is such a minor holiday in terms of meaning, other than for sweethearts, families, kids getting candy, or them being forced to give cards to their enemies in class. If my session was on the exact day I might consider giving a card, but if it's not, it seems like "too much," especially because it's after the fact. And, if I didn't get "what a good girl am I" expression, I would feel let down and embarrassed or possibly shame back then. That's just me.
