Warning, rant.

Valentine's day should be changed to "Get off you butt, do the things you haven't had courage to do, appricate the things that you do have" and take the pretense of romance out of it. Those things could still be asking people out and appricating your SO, but it could also be things like asking for a raise or finishing putting the new wax seal in the toilet or appricating that you have very nice pants that fit. The stores could still sell their wares, it just wouldn't have the lonelifying effect, since hte stress would be on you going out and doing something for yourself.

putting a wax seal in the toilet?
what IS that?

Where the toilet contacts the sewage pipe undernieth it there is a large wax ring that slowly wears away. I don't know how often you have to replace them, but I've helped my mother do it when things started to smell bad in the bathroom.

Here's a link that talks about it:
