Lupercalia survived the initial rise of Christianity but was outlawed—as it was deemed “un-Christian”–at the end of the 5th century, when Pope Gelasius declared February 14 St. Valentine's Day. It was not until much later, however, that the day became definitively associated with love.

NOTE this Key word: Is a day set aside for COUPLES to celebrate love, is not  a day meant for any single brother or sister to fornicate & get themselves implicated in any unhealthy gathering, if you must celebrate, please be wise, celebrate this day by hanging out with your friends, exchange gifts, catch fun, enjoy some cool of gist, games together but SEX SHOULD BE A NO NO FOR YOU IF YOU ARE SINGLE!

Valentine's Day is to a large extent a “Hallmark” holiday.
