V-Day Heart Attack: "I-Hate-This-Day-otitis"

Q: I'm sick of the hype of Valentine's Day, not because I'm single - I'm married. It's just another reason for companies to capitalize on the insecurities and delusions of couples, and positively reinforces disproportionate spending on items with expiration dates. The last word that comes to mind is "romantic". - Brandon, 35

A: Oh honey, those are my least favorite parts of V-Day too! However, disagree as you may on celebrating it, this pseudo-holiday will come back every year as far as I know (as confirmed by the inner circle of elite matchmakers). You should capitalize. Romance happens when you press all the right buttons, whether it's on the 14th day of the second month of the year or not. Brandon, just know that every woman likes having P.M.S.- a physical manifestation of sentiments, that is! Women like to tell friends how fantastic their man is. Find a new and creative way to celebrate this tired old day, if you really want to stick it to the Man!
