Of course, a friend of mine gifted her girlfriend that cute “I choo choo choose you” card from the simpsons, which made me kind of jealous. No one ever did that for me!

I can only speak for myself, but Valentine’s Day feels weird every year. For me, it shoves those weird notions of how a relationship should be right in my face; Men gift their women flowers, chocolates and bath bombs and in return, they receive sex. There was this ad campaign in Germany which literally suggested that if you give your girlfriend or wife the prettiest flowers, you’ll shag. Or this other ad campaign which suggested that women could present their men by playstation. Hum. Maybe it’s just Germany. Anyway, I feel that heterosexual relationships are celebrated and glorified, while other kinds of relationships are, if anything, an afterthought.

Thanks for asking and I hope you had a nice day yesterday :)
