What is Valentine's Day? Also called St. Valentine's Day, it is a social custom celebrated on February 14. On this day, "lovers express their affection with greetings and gifts."
The date and theme of romance date back to the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, which "included fertility rites and the pairing off of women with men by lottery."

This holiday was banned by the pope during the fifth century. By the fourteenth century, it had grown into a celebration of love honoring one or more Christian martyrs by the name of Valentine - one who wrote a letter to his jailer's daughter before his death, and another who "secretly married couples to spare the husbands from war."
There are also variations of Valentine's Day celebrated by those without a romantic partner. February 13 has been dubbed "Galentine's Day" in celebration of platonic friendships, especially friendships among women. Some schools promote the holiday as "Friendship Day."
