Spoiler alert: Correspondence is KEY.
I’ve always liked Valentine’s Day. There’s nothing I have more stoked up about than big, affectionate gestures, therefore even though i did son’t have partner, I’d want to shock my buddies by having a ridiculous heart-shaped box of drugstore chocolates or a few roses I’d found only for them. It is too an easy task to simply take relationships for granted—romantic or platonic—and having a vacation to pause and recognize the significance of those relationships has historically appeared like a good plan to me personally.
