So what's the deal with Valentine's Day? At around 270AD Rome was facing battles and civil uprising. The men were not keen to join the army and Emperor Claudius II believed the men didn't want to leave their loved ones and so cancelled all marriages and engagements. Two priests, Valentine and Marius, disobeyed and secretly performed marriage ceremonies. Valentine was caught on February 14 and dragged to jail. Later in the day before his execution, Valentine himself had fallen in love with the jailer's daughter and he signed his final note to her, "From your Valentine."
