- Valentine's Day history and facts, courtesy of Crew's Nest Holidays (which provided the image, above right) and History.com.
- Love-themed libations, such as those tagged "bride," "honey," "kiss," "lip," "love," "romance," "sex," "sweet," "Valentine," and "wedding" at DrinkNation.com.
- How to write a love letter.
- Many lovers get married on Valetine's Day (and other holidays), but divorce divas say, "don't do that." (If the relationship sours, the holiday will forever serve as a painful reminder). On the flip side, many vengeful spouses also file or serve divorce papers on Valentine's Day.
- Why, on holidays, it's better receive than to give engagement rings.
I'd be insulted if anyone ever sang or dedicated either of these popular songs to me:
- "I Love You Just the Way You Are
" (Billy Joel
) - specifically:
I don't want clever conversation
I don't want to work that hard.
I just want someone to talk to
I want you just the way you are.
"My Funny Valentine
" (Rodgers and Hart
) - :
Your looks are laughable, unphotographable.
Yet, you're my favorite work of art.
Is your figure less than Greek ?
Is your mouth a little weak ?
When you open it to speak, are you smart ?
But don't change a hair for me, not if you care for me.
