Valentine's Day is almost here, which means it's time to join an epic social media battle. Which side are you on? Will you be sharing Instagram photos of the heart-shaped pancakes you made your kids, the bouquet of roses your boo sent you, and your candlelit dinner? Or will you be watching Netflix and flooding your Facebook newsfeed with anti-Valentine's Day memes?
The holiday dedicated to candy hearts and love isn't for everyone, whether you're in a relationship or not. Some argue that you should show your love for your partner every day, regardless of the holiday. I get that, definitely, but that argument is like saying that Christmas is pointless because we should all spend time with our loved ones every chance we get, not just one time a year. Plus, you can't wear red, lacy lingerie 24/7. I mean, that would get super irritating.
Others are firmly in the Valentine's Day haters squad because they're single, and that one I can understand a bit. Whether you're coping with your first Valentine's Day after divorce or have been single for a while, it can be totally disheartening to see everyone in line at Target with their champagne and strawberries and all you want is to pay for your new leggings and cow-shaped sugar bowl and get the hell out of there. Well, this one's for you, my friend. Here are 19 Valentine's Day memes perfect to share with the world when you just wish Saint Patrick's Day would hurry up so you'd have a legitimate excuse for drinking at 8 a.m.
