Valentine's Day
the United States
If you listen to American music, watch American television or magazines, you will probably agree that the most popular subject of these forms of entertainment is love. Romantic love always finds an audience in the country. Falling in love, solving the problems of love, and achieving the happy ending — the big wedding are subjects of interest to both the adult and the teenage public. Millions of Americans celebrate Valentine's Day with special cards and gifts that announce their love to their mates, their friends, and their families. A popular saying is “Love conquers all”. Numerous columns in magazines and newspapers offer advice to those with difficulties of heart. To most Americans, romantic love is central to a happy life. Not only do Americans believe in romantic love but they also believe that it is the best basis for making a happy marriage. Despite the high divorce rate in the United States, young men and women continue to marry on the basis of romantic love. Young Americans feel free to choose their own marriage partners from any social, economic, or religious background. The man or woman may have strong ties with parents, brothers, or sisters, but when he or she falls in love, the strongest feelings are supposed to be for the loved one. When an American couple marries, they generally plan to live apart from both sets of parents and build their own independent family structure.
