I wasn't meaning that you in particular had something with gold an diamonds, but girls in general, I mean why else would they be plaster all over the adds on every holiday. An your right about the price of roses, an if you mom doesn’t believe you, have her check in the next week or two. An just know when you do see your boyfriend again, you can had your special time with him then, unless your a religious person, the day that’s chosen to express in any special manner the feelings you have from someone, is entirely up to you. I personally don't let the social propaganda get to me. When you have time with him, that will be your V-day. its' all how you think about it...An if it really gets you down, Just do something nice for yourself, like sleep in, take a longer shower, go for a walk, or is you want buy yourself something...Anyway, I hope you can feel better about it.
