Valentines Day is about secret admirers isn't it? The idea that a card or two falls through the door with no name inside is the basis for the pleasure of this day. So why the pressure to still buy your wife or girlfriend one after years together? Where is the surprise and what's the point? Couples who love each other should go for meals and buy flowers spontaneously throughout the year. Not be forced into a situation where they are rammed in a restaurant with other couples because if they don't there will be a row. How romantic can it be to receive a gift from someone who has been strong armed into it. Leave Valentines Day for the single people  who still believe that finding love will fix their broken lives and lead them to their happy ever after. They don't want to sit next to Tom And Barbara who sleep with their backs to each other every night secretly wishing that the other one would disappear. Three years is when the magic fades so find someone else.
Happy Valentines Day though young lovers. 
Same time next year unless you are lucky enough to have split up.
