Is valentine day more important to dating couples than married ones?

those not yet married seem to go all out on valentine day but those already married it's just another day. why is that?Is valentine day more important to dating couples than married ones?
I think for married couples it is just another day.. because everyday for them is Valentine's day. And they know what love is.. even just sitting together on the couch just feeling each others' presence is already love at work.





Unlike married couples, dating couples don't have their life time together yet. That is why they have Valentine's day to be together.Is valentine day more important to dating couples than married ones?
Hi trigger,


according to the old Celtic tradition (renamed St. Valentine's day by the Christian Church some centuries later) the purpose of this aspect of the Goddess Ester (Easter is her annual celebration - it's even kept her name) is to help guide young lovers together and to ensure a happy and fruitful married life.





Once you're married, the purpose has been fulfilled.





Just about answers your question, I think or?





Blessed be

Well it usually happens once you have kids that are at a age that celebrate in school-etc you tend to be so focused on getting those cupcakes made and Valentines made for all the friends and kids at school and any parties that you forget about celebrating for yourself other than a 'I love you and Happy Valentines Day.'; This expecially happens when you have been married for awhile, but not always.
for some married couples there's a very convenient excuse for this ';everyday is valentines day for us';.





but ideally it should be like;





the essence of this day must always a constant reminder of a loving relationship that's why it needs to be celebrated intimately.





it is also the affirmation of love a complete demonstration on how you care and love with each other.





how you cherish important moments such as the valentines.





or simply just to communicate.














the risk if you DON'T celebrate such ';corny'; moment or you don't value romantic moments (birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, mother's day etc etc)





your kids will witness that love and care is not that important at home hence they'll grow up with such understanding. should they have their own relationship they will do the same. in other words this kind of attitude can be inherited to your kids. so watch out.


if kids grow in a secured environment then what do you think they'll do when they have their own family?





relationship stagnate, boring





insecure lover as a result kids suffers and less productive wife, mother, worker and lover





more misunderstanding

To most married ones, gone are the days or wine and roses. They have now to face realities. Earn more to feed the needs of the family.


Valentines Day are taken for granted or may be forgotten already
I believe its more important to dating couples, because they are perpetually trying to impress eachother and show more love. When you are married it is obvious and apparent.
absolutly not. those who are married but not intimate suffer casuality, but those who keep God between them, and are true, they perpetually grow closer
Valentines day is a lame holiday. It is a day for you to show your true love for the one you love. Shouldn't that be every day?





It is overrated and overpriced
Everything is more important to unmarrieds.Everything is over the moment u get married........ahhhhhhh feel lightened up.....thanks 4 asking
Hmm i know my family members go all out n crazy on valentines day and they are married they do the sweetest things ever imaginable .. i guess it just depends on the couple!
yeah, especially the teens... grown-ups/married ones tend to want to save more money...
it's different being a couple and being married.


the feelings change between people
