Why do so many couples break up on Valentine's Day? What should I do if I want to break up on Valentine's Day?

Valentine's Day is a day for many lovers to celebrate their love, but few people know that this day is often the time when the most problems between lovers are exposed. Not receiving the gifts you want, or being five minutes late for a date could be tolerated in the past, but now even one minute is intolerable. Why do so many lovers break up on Valentine's Day? Let's take a look!

Why do so many couples break up on Valentine's Day?

American writer Henry Louis Mencken once said, "A happy marriage is one that earns a hundred dollars more than the husband of your wife's best friend." This competitive mentality exists at all times and is magnified during festivals. The amount of money received in red envelopes from a partner during the Spring Festival can spark heated discussions.

On Valentine's Day, many people will show their affection on social platforms. You scroll through your circle of friends and see that your good friend has a candlelight dinner, the girl you disliked in middle school received the bag you always wanted, and your cousin took a photo with a big bouquet of roses. Compared with your own unwrapped gift and the usual dinner, you feel that your Valentine's Day is not as good as others.

What to do if you want to break up on Valentine's Day

When we were young, we were full of fantasies about love. We always thought that lovers should be omnipotent and would come to us on a colorful cloud. Love should be vigorous, and all needs could be met and all shortcomings could be tolerated. Putting aside the identity of lovers, your boyfriend/girlfriend is just an ordinary person without superpowers. Unrealistic fantasies are irrational expectations, and it is normal that they are not met.

Valentine's Day is a day for two people. If your partner is not particularly fond of rituals, you might as well tell him/her what you want directly. It is also very meaningful for the two of you to discuss together how to spend this day well.

Why do we give gifts on Valentine's Day?

It is to let the other person know that you care about him/her and are willing to give for him/her, so gifts are indispensable.

If she likes dressing up, you can give her lipstick, skin care products, clothes and bags; if she likes playing games, you can give her a game console, game controller and mechanical keyboard; if she likes chasing stars, you can give her rare celebrity peripherals; if she likes sports, you can give her sneakers and jerseys. Then add some handmade gadgets, such as an album full of group photos, a handwritten love letter, or a video clip of beautiful memories. As long as you put your heart into it, the other person will definitely feel it.
