St. Valentine's Day.

I have ambivilant feelings about this day. I have no idea who is was, but suspect the 'worshipping' of him is from pagan times. I have only once, when I was very young,before today, received a card or message, on this day. I am, however, an incurable romantic, and am always hopeful some-one will remember me. I do think that it should not be on just this day that people tell their loved ones how much they mean to them, but every day of the year. I think this is why so many women have become bored with the once a year chocolates and flowers. With the cost of flowers these days, I think the money would be better given to the lady, to spend how she likes.
This morning I received a text message which said, Happy Valentine's Day. Then, about ten minutes later, I received another one, from the same person, saying, Happy Valentine's Day. You will never guess who this is from. Funny man. As I have his phone no. in my phone's memory, I knew straight away who it was.
I sent him one back saying, 'Hey Bill, I have a 'secret' admirer, and he sent me TWO Valentine's Day messages. You will never guess who they were from. Made my day.' I have not received a reply, as yet.
