We asked the users of our website a simple question:
How do you feel about Valentine’s Day in five words or less?
The answers are funny and sweet and sad and romantic and surprising and we’ve had a lot of fun reading them. But taken all together, with all the punctuation and capital letters for emphases and emoticons, they started to feel almost like poetry. This is a sampling of some of our favorites:
Love is ... being stupid together!
Just got engaged—LOVE it!
“LOVE” comes in many forms!
Chocolate is forever. He isn’t.
Angry pink heart day.
That saint is dead, okay?
Great time to re-connect
Braulio, will you marry me?
Sex. Chocolate. Sex. Love. Sex.
Chocolate, romance—sucks if single.
Chocolate lasts longer than love.
Chocolate is better then men!
I WANT SOME CHOCOLATE!
YAY! I’m in love!
Yay! Let’s have sex tonight!
An excuse for calories? Yay!
Neither here nor there.
Just me and my dog.
What will I buy myself?
I may be paying someone.
Past anniversary with exboyfriend.
Anniversary of positive pregnancy test!
Great excuse for new lingerie!
Great excuse for brownie points
Wonderful day to express love
A reminder: I love you
