Honestly going out on VD is the worst. It’s busy af everywhere, staff are exhausted dealing with the surge, everyone working wants you to spend a lot more than you do, everyone is either on edge or sad, you’ll probably be disturbed by some grand sweeping gesture..

Ick. The weekend before or after are much better. Or literally any other time. Go for romantic dates on other holidays when everyone else tends to be out of town, not the day when everyone else is trying to do the same thing.
