Discussion

I never really paid much attention to Valentine’s Day before, but this year is different. Maybe it’s because I am a newlywed and am still living in newlywed bliss.
Whatever it is, I have thought a lot about V-Day. It just seems more important this year. Many of my friends, like Allison, are still checking out guys.
I think that’s cool because she can choose between a few different guys.
to go[/def]! Options are great!
