I think Valentine’s Day has lost it’s true “purpose”.  Wasn’t the intent of this day dedicated to those – who aren’t taken – who wish to share their admiration for someone?  Valentine’s Day can be used as an incentive to show through words, action or gift that someone is liked.

Now you get people in relationships wondering why they didn’t receive any gifts or words of affection.  If you’re in a relationship wouldn’t it be better to relish what you have already?  Rather than work up a fuss on this one day, when any other day would be just as suitable.  As long you’re with someone who deeply cares about you that’s all that matters, right?

This post wasn’t written to make anyone feel guilty about vexating their partner.  I just think Valentine’s Day is pointless if you’re in a relationship, as those kinds of things should be done without the excuse/reason of 14th February.

Before today 2 months had gone since the last time I had my periods.  I’ve never had a consistent cycle but when the second month arrived and gone without a hitch I began to wonder and slightly worry.

Now, I’m not so sure why.  I forgot just how painful it is.  Painkillers don’t work, nor does the hot water bottle.  However, exercising is working but I can’t do that all day. 

How do you cope with the pain?
