25 years old and still don't get it

I realize I'm probably alone on this but I just don't get the importance of Valentine's Day. I understand it's a national day where we recongize the importance of love. I however, don't really want to celebrate my love with others. Let me try again, I don't want Allen to do some grand gesture because it's expected I want him to do it because he wants to. I know he loves me we woudn't be married if he didn't. I also love it when he surprises me and does sweet things for me. I don't however really care what he does for Valentine's Day. I know on facebook I said I was excited about getting diamonds for Vday. In reality, I was getting diamonds, not for v-day but because we never could afford them until now. To give Allen a break on racking his brain on what to get me I said the diamonds were for Valentines day. I just don't get why girls put sooo much thought into Valentines day. I know I'm weird. I'd much rather get flowers or gifts on April 9 or something like that. Am I alone on this????
