Lol!
I actually had a non Valentines day situation where I had (A large Gerbera Daisy or long stem rose, I forget which) and was waiting to meet a girl for a date, we hadn't known each other long. After some time, it was apparent I got stood up. So instead of letting it ruin my day I took a walk and gave it to a random girl along the way. Was able to share coffee with her and get her phone number. Nothing worked out long term wth us but we ended up being friends for some time, and it sure made being stood up feel a lot better.
As for Valentines Day, I'm not a huge fan. Not because I'm not romantic, I think that I am and have some great stories to back it up, but I'm one of those people who doesn't feel you should have a day set aside for it, rather it should be when you feel you want to. I alos really like surprises and giving surprises. It's hard to surprise a person on a set day.
All of that said, I still spend it with my girl doing something nice and we both usually have a lot of fun. It's not a chore by any means.
