Since the 1970s it’s been a fairly popular capitalistic scheme by candy companies that has infected generations of girls into believing both that they need to buy chocolate for every male in their classroom or they’re a social failure, and that girls that don’t receive any chocolate are pitiable. It was so successful the had the audacity to make a companion holiday, White Day, in which boys are supposed to give back chocolate to every girl that gave it to them a month later.

I guess at least you probably wouldn’t have vanished when the jerks at school started targeting me. That would have been helpful. A literal lifesaver, I suppose.
For the most part, although I assume queer couples have since co-opted the tradition, but I wouldn’t have any personal experience.
I’d suggest just making up your own tradition to make it more special for your purposes, although if you feel the same as I do nowadays, the idea of just one day being romantic is kind of funny.

My life with an eccentric friend with god-like abilities … it certainly wouldn’t have been boring. It would have been nice to have someone to go to the theater with.
I’m sure you’ll do fine. You’re a total sack.
