Valentine's Day

[thecolorsblend]

I've been known to repeatedly and loudly say something mysterious and oblique such as "I don't celebrate Valentine's Day. Not for you, not for anybody. If the survival of the entire human race hinged exclusively upon my willingness to celebrate Valentine's Day, the human race had better get ready to greet extinction".

How is it then that women can hear that and immediately assume "oh, that was his policy for his EX-girlfriends; it'll be different for ME"?

Different women have different thinking and there may be some who do not need all these celebrations as well.

Since we aren't mind readers, why don't you ask them yourself?

He can't read minds that's why he asked. Does someone have an answer?

Well, IMO,

They think the reason you're against it or never celebrated before is because you weren't with the right person.

Since they are with you now, they probably consider themselves the right person.

Therefore, they expect you to celebrate with them.

That being said, I can't speak for them. So maybe I'm wrong and they all have their own reasons.

But as a woman that would be my thinking on the subject.
