St. Valentine

      The origin of St. Valentine is unknown , yet they say that there was about three St. Valentines. One was a priest in Rome, another was a bishop in Terni and the last one was in Africa. All that is known is that all of their ends was in February 14, Valentines day. St. Valentine was a martyrdom who would secretly help young couples with their marriage. By that time Claudius II banned marriages in Rome because he thought that men would not join the army because of their wives. St. Valentine did not agree with Claudius II and it angered him. Claudius II then demanded for St. Valentine to be executed on February 14.
     
      In my opinion, people break up in spring break and during summer holidays because by that time pretty sure everyone would want to spend their break peacefully. People break up in April fool's day because people probably take their jokes too far. People probably break up 2 weeks before Christmas because of family problems. An example would be that the husband would not be able to make it home on Christmas day and the wife gets mad. A way of not breaking up is by talking about the solutions that is available instead of going crazy and slapping each other. It's better to think about the positive things.
