Celebrating Valentine's Day in Turkey

This day is usually celebrated by young couples on February 14. They begin to do shopping two weeks prior to Valentine's Day. These couples spend the whole day with each other. During the day, they go to an amusement park or a cinema and have dinner together. At the end of the day, they give each other gifts, especially red roses, because a red rose has special meaning for love.

However, couples shouldn't show each other their love on just this day. I think, they should always be tolerant and appreciate each other because love is necessary for people all the time.

Why not? Nobody treats them like religious festivals in Christian countries, so does it really make a difference? lol
