Two weeks ago marked the two years my grandma passed away. And while I was sitting in bed a little while ago, I remembered the story my grandpa gave me when my grandma was about to pass away. I'd like to share it with you guys.

From My Grandpa's Side

"Back in the day, nobody ran as many flower shops as they do now. At least not around Stockton. When I was a working man in my 20s, a group of flowers cost about a weeks worth of pay.

One day I met your grandma while working. I saved up for two weeks and put the flowers on her doorstep hoping she would go out with me. There were very few ways to ask out a girl back in the day, and this was one of them.

All I wanted was her love. This is all I've wanted..."

Guys, unless your wife or whatever is dead, there really is no excuse for at least not being with a girl on Valentines Day. We've got bars, nightclubs, libraries, parks. You can pretty much meet a girl wherever the fuck you want. You don't need to save up a whole week and buy a boutique of flowers in hopes a girl will go out with you.

Girls are a lot more open-minded to today's approaches more than ever. Feel like a loser? I genuinely don't give a crap. It sounds selfish, but unless you've got a really, REALLY good excuse like losing a family member, I can't really pity you, and I'm going to guess you're not one of those people if you're on this seddit.

Here's a solution for Valentines Day: Go approach a girl, tell her she's cute, have conversation, go on a date.

Here's a long-term solution: Learn conversation skills, build up your "resume" of hobbies and skills, and do something fulfilling with your life. Then go approach some girls.

TLDR: My grandpa had to save up a ton of money just for the chance to ask a girl out. We don't need to do anything this crazy in our society today. Stop crying and do something about not being with a girl on Valentines Day.
