Well, before girls come at me or stingy men start to laud the headline, let me explain my viewpoint.
The whole essence of the celebration is the celebration of love not to just parade the internet with gift showoffs. According to a Hindustan Times, it is a day to honour love, romance and relationships. So if you gift your partner without honouring the love relationship you’ve got with them, you’re not celebrating Valentine.
Gifting your partner on Valentine’s Day for the purpose of the day without really loving them might be hypocritical. You might find yourself just adhering to the requirements of the day and forgetting the essence of the celebration.
Valentine is not just about gifting about honouring bonds and relationships. It is not about showing off to the world that you love a person with an elaborate and extravagant bouquet. Do you also make the person feel loved when it’s not Valentine’s Day?
Few folks might have dived right into relationships so that they will not be tagged “single” on Valentine’s Day. They just want to feel among and receive gifts on that special day. One can’t actually blame them because society isn’t fair to those who are single really.
With all the influx of Valentine’s Day packages from vendors, I’ll like to think most people will buy packages out of pressure and not out of the real essence of the day.
One little secret! As a student, I have heard a handful of ladies say that they’re only dating a guy so that they can get a Valentine’s package. After Valentine, they might just dump him. Sometimes, girls are just bothered about showing off to their friends.

Consider these conditions before gifting your partner on Valentine’s Day
•Valentine’s Day is not the only day to treat your partner well or spoil them. Don’t follow the crowd, seclude a special day to celebrate your love and bond. Valentine’s Day has become a fetish that most people look forward towards that day alone to so something big for the people they love.
•Don’t gift your partner on Valentine’s Day if you are not going to honour them. There’s this popular warning they give ladies not to collect Valentine’s gift from men just because they believe men do that in exchange for sex. Please withhold gifting someone a gift on Valentine’s day if you have the idea of sex exchange.
•You shouldn’t gift your partner on Valentine’s Day if you just started dating within a month. You just started out in the relationship and as newbies in a love ship, everyday should have been days where you express love and commitment. Your ship might have just been a set up to garner Valentine’s package.
•Gifts are overrated for some people.Some folks love language as quality time of words of affirmation. Figure out what your partner will really value instead of wasting money on huge teddy bears they won’t appreciate.
•Surprise your partner, break the streak. Do not order that teddy bear or fake rose flower again. Just go through all the romantic words and show affection that day.
I hope my article helped a bit. Valentine’s Day has so much hypocritical value that people have forgotten the real essence of the day. Rather than practice hypocrisy, just take a moment to focus on building a love that is worth celebrating.
