Valentine's Day is hardly celebrated with us. An Italian friend told me yesterday it's official Italian the rest is greedy and commercial. You will not find 1 single shop earning great because of Valentine's Day so stop saying this is the biggest holiday of the year since it isn't. The same counts for Christmas. Why is it you keep the commercial alive and the first thought is she doesn't like to buy a gift?
Do you know the history of the monk St Valentine?
Do you know that every day it's a special day because of some commercials? New Year, Carnival, Eid, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Peanymutbutter Day, Eastern, First May, Children's Day, and and and... All signs of love and never-ending piles of gifts to show love to unsatisfied partners, family members, friends and children
.

Just like your friend I am sick of it and a present no matter how expensive is not a sign of love.
