Are you in the Mood for LOVE? (Wink, wink) Well Valentine’s Day is coming up! Yes fella’s
lets not try and wait till last minute this year (like 76 percent of the male population
according to ….)! This is for the lovers out there & we are going to give you some
helpful tips that will butter up your sweetie! Not just with the typical roses, candy, and
expensive dinners (which we all love & still expect) right ladies? Right! But great facts
that will impress your darling and up your LOVE IQ by tenfold!
So try this romantic tid bit. Valentine’s Day has an historical background too. Contrary
to what some may believe; Valentine's Day wasn't created by greetings card companies
just to sell cards and candies. Valentine’s Day started with the Romans. Legend says
that while the Roman Emperor Claudius II was trying to strengthen his army, he forbade
young men to marry (apparently single men make better soldiers who knew?). In the spirit
of love, St. Valentine defied the ban and was so outraged by this injustice he performed
secret marriages. Claudis found out about this and for his disobedience, Valentine was
executed (beheaded) on February 14. But according to legend, Valentine actually sent the first
“valentine” greeting himself. While in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell
in love with a young girl – who may have been his jailor’s daughter – who visited
him during his confinement. Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter,
which he signed “From your Valentine,” an expression that is still in use today.
Pope Gelasius deemed Valentine a Saint and made February 14 St. Valentine's Day near
498 A.D.
So in the honor of St. Valentine why not show your True Love the real meaning of Valentines’
with these Sweetheart deals from Waldorf ford & Dodge.
