Valentine's Day for Couples

After reviewing the pros of being single on the world's most romantic day (see previous post), I know it's only appropriate to cover the other angle.
Of course it's nice to have a date for Valentine's Day, and when that date is someone you love and care about it really is wonderful. Unfortunately, more often than not I think that Valentine's Day for couples is a tough day to get through. The pressure to make the day a success is huge - every person, especially the men, are under a microscope. When he doesn't take you to the right restaurant you begin to wonder if maybe he doesn't know you well enough, or is this really the guy you want to spend your future special days with? All girls are comparing the facts and events of their days with each other, and judging whether their BFs are good enough. It's unfortunate because a BF could be amazing every day of the year, but if he comes up short on Feb. 14th, he's viewed as an undesirable catch. And we wonder why guys end up buying generic flowers and chocolates - they're caving under the pressure!
I think Valentine's Day for couples is a day of disappointment more often than a day of love and happiness, unless of course you have a great catch like I do.
