Valentine's day and its social influence

Valentine's Day is a significant date. The flow of gifts and purchases in the commercial field make the date to milestone. This is combined with a school setting, where schools and lyceums open the space for joy, recreational and reciprocal events that favor learning and integration.  

Capitalist society imposes a way of loving that establishes a reciprocal relationship between love/consumption, love/money. A quantification of love according to "the more you spend the more love you feel". This money-love, social status-love nexus strengthens inequality, social discrimination and patriarchal masculinity.We are involved in a world in which social networks prevail, in which even a photo of a known or unknown person can become a threat. 

In some people the influence of social networks is felt more on Valentine's Day, since its use leads many couples to make comparisons. This sometimes becomes a good reason to end a relationship with weak bases. However, I clarify that the networks are not the culprits. Why? For the root lies in the dissatisfaction, which comes to be manifested in the expectations we had about our relationships.
